Mmmmm.... Pigeons!!!
Fantastic hunts, with yummy rewards.
I never found a good place to hunt pigeons in Ontario.
Definitely a "private property with a barn" type of hunt I guess.

Yes it is. With todays cleaner farms most pigeons get poisoned before they get to huntable populations. In menonite country they usually get trapped and sold at the farmers market. There are still some feed lot farms esp pig farms that have some hanging around.Quote:

On one of my permissions there is nice sizeable population of pigeons. I asked the landowner if they were pets (LOL!). His reply was I like to see them gone! So I asked... and believe me when I tell you the look he gave me. He was not crazy about the idea of shooting near the barns. I explained to him how the hunt would be conducted. He gave me the ok. Ill wait till after turkey season and then i'll let the games begin.
