September 1st is the big day here in Colorado for doves (and Blue Grouse!) Since dove hunting along the greenbelts of the Arkansas River has become so predictably spectacular, I suppose that it will have to take precedence. These days, I'm in a mild uproar over what guns to take and which one to use first (I know, I know, a problem every hunter should have). After that small crisis passes, then one has to decide whether to bird hunt or fly-fish for trout when time allows.
