what day does dove season open in mississippi
Mississippiâs dove hunters are being reminded that this weekendâs opening-day change in the 2014 season includes both a move to Sunday and a delay in legal shooting hours until 2 p.m. * It is that odd year on the calendar when Sept. 1 falls on a Sunday, the second day of a three-day holiday weekend. * It was the desire of the Mississippi Commission on Wildlife, Fisheries and Parks to include Labor Day in the first dove season, and Labor Day is Monday, Sept. 2. * The North America Migratory Bird Treaty does not allow any migratory bird seasons to open before Sept. 1.
