I'm not a hunter...yet. I'd like to be.
I have never hunted, growing up in the suburbs of Maryland. I'm active duty military in west Texas. I'm also a gun nut, and I'd like to apply my munitions to something other than paper.
I have a friend who has offered to take me dove hunting on his land.
I need to know what I need license-wise, training-wise, and equipment-wise.
I've got a CHL and Air Force pistol Expert Marksman qualification.
I have two shotguns. One is a Mossy 500 and a 24" barrel of unknown choke, 5-round tube. I also have a Remington 1100 set up for 3-gun with a 9 round tube and modified choke. I don't know which one is best or legal, if either.
So what do I need to hunt dove with my friend?
