Best line: “Alright, let’s pick up shells.” Respect. I wish everyone had this respect.
It’s not about respect, it’s about saving $$. He reloads them
@@leomidure it is def about respect, this is such a respectful hunting show for sure
I hate it when I go out hunting and there are shells all over the ground.
If it was respect, they wouldn't be using lead
@@liamfisher917 fair. i wondered the same, suppose its harder to melt steel at home.
Whoever made the decision to upload this series on TH-cam and made this free for us to watch, I thank you. This show is an inspiration for us who likes to go to the outdoors. And for me, was instrumental for overcoming my depression due to the lockdown. Thank you so much 😁😁 ❤️❤️ from the 🇵🇭
Totally. This is very generous. So much quality for free.
they are all available on themeateater.com tho, also there u dont have to wait for them to upload one episode at a time.
@@admir2323 Oh, thanks! I did not know that, but I guess it was for the best because if I did, I would just watch it all in a day or two 😂
Thank Steve ! Hes the man in charge
I actually.... moved out of California to start hunting.
Ron is the best! He checks his cell phone, gets stung by a bee, stomps out the bee, and then quickly grabs his shotgun and shoots down a dove. LMFAO
Steve is literally a professional hunter and has the humility to go get trained by a shooting pro. Mad respect!!
Hey Jacob, we really like to come down to hunt some doves for few days. Where should we go? Please help
@@peterusa123 you misspelled google
@@si8086 thank you for your response 😁
You can never have to much training
That English guy was cracking me up, love seeing someone get on Steve the way he gets on other people. Steve takes it all in stride and used it to advance his shooting. That's what it's all about
The lead dripping out into shot is wildly satisfying
40-50 years ago I read about the multi story tall shot towers that were used to produce commercial shot. When I saw this when it originally aired, I was thinking WTF?
Anything with Ronnie and his fancy dogs is gonna be good.
@@lunkydog. You can find videos of that here on TH-cam they did it exactly like you said.
As a Virginia hunter this episode is even more great than usual
Right!
To the place I belong , oh West Virginia
Exactly I’m a Virginia hunter myself and it is better than other episodes
@@MrThatnativeguy *west Virginia
@@MrThatnativeguy are you another person that doesnt know west Virginia is a state
You should pre-heat those casting molds (muffin tins) so you don't get steam explosions like that.
Yeah cold molds with hot lead makes condensation that pops pretty good plus no safety glasses.
Dove hunting is a freakin’ blast, even though they can make even the most polished shooters look like beginners...super tasty little morsels too!
Are they gamey at all, or pretty mild?
@@ipdjbt fairly mild. You can cook them with no seasoning and they still taste good. Poppers are a tradition but I also like to bake them with butter, onions, pepper, garlic, salt and pepper
@@ipdjbt I sure don’t find them gamey, mostly just a mild “fowl” taste...like Jaymes said, they are super universal to cook with too. I like to fry mine up like little nuggets and season them according to the day’s taste preference
When he got stung by that bee that was hilarious
Good on him for not having his gun in his hands as he was doing his "hot brass dance" too!
Ron is fuckin' hilarious. I see why he's a sought after hunting partner.
THANK YOU SO MUCH! BEST HUNTING SHOW IN THE WORLD HANDS DOWN!!!!!

“Oh Shenandoah, I long to see you, away you rolling river” This episode makes me miss home in the blue ridge
That bee sting was hilarious!! 🐝🐝🐝
Hello Jackie how are you doing today.
Growing up in VA, when I was a kid I was my dad's bird dog during dove season. He got me my first dove gun, a 20g, when I was 8 years old. For those who dove hunt, it's a deep tradition and helluva lot of fun.
Happy to see a episode in my home state
Ohhh West Virginia , mountain mama...
Imagine what this dude's kids learn daily... lucky folks I've learned more from meateater than I did in high school
Lmao I’m learning about all the different colors that girls dye their hair these days
@@BC-mn5uc Lol, I know right!
I’ve been waiting for s6 for so long… binge watched ever episode I could online and on tv services and now I’m finally getting the last season I haven’t seen.
Steve, you’ve done more for hunting than many pro-hunting organizations combined. Keep it up!
Ron is such a dad.
To find a good place to hunt dove is like finding a gold mine. People keep them a secret held tightly to their heart here in VA
I know the pain of the close crosser all too well 😂😂
Shenandoah valley!!! It’s great to see Steve in my neck of the woods! I love dove hunting here
As a guy that has never hunted in my life and has had the opportunity to watch shows like this, specially meatEater, I find myself always enjoying the quality hunting content you guys work so hard on so guys like me can say hey this is new to me as a human being why not have a open mind towards it. Watching this episode brought me a sense of community that other shows fail to provide, when everybody is out there shooting doves, it seems so damn fun wel you guys can all come together and do what you love best.
Had me smiling the whole time watching you experience your first real dove hunt. I look forward to mine every year.
I’ve been on a couple dove shoots where it sounded like ww3 out there! You couldn’t keep your gun loaded fast enough! Super fun!
First time I’ve ever seen someone pluck dove cool to see the little differences
Makes me drool to taste that dove when it was all prepared!
I tell u what. The episodes with Ronnie are my favorites. Dude is hilarious. Between the farting, jokes and mishaps (falling in other episodes and getting stung). It is pure entertainment.
Ron was cracking me up when he got stung and Steve was laughing at him!!
I've been in love with the 16 gauge since my youth thanks to my Uncle and his Browning Sweet 16, Carries like a 20, and shoots like a 12.
Did anyone else notice that Ronnie started the big dove shoot with a drilling (two shotgun barrels with a rifle underneath)?
Please keep uploading more!!! This is easily my favorite series! Steven needs to continue this show. 10/10
Ron is the hipster of hunting
7:32 You are looking for the result....thats a little golden nugget that was just casually dropped.
Ive watched this episode 10000 times and it keeps getting better Ronnie is a character…. one I would like to meet.
So Happy to see a new vid come out just as I turn my pc on SOOO HYPED :D
On my break for work , perfect!
What a damn good instructor that English chap was. And good on Steve for being humble enough to admit he needs some pointers.
Ronnie's #1🏆
Old homesteaders tricks for plucking. Boil a pot of water and dunk the thing for about 30-60 seconds. Things wipe clean.
I had never tried bacon wrapped dove prior to this year. It is AWESOME! Goodbye dryness
try wrapping a jalepeno up in there as well. its excellent
That shooting coach was next level. Dude whipped out a magnet
I’m with Ron. My 2 favorite shotguns are my 1957 Savage single shot and 1939 Winchester Model 12 slam fire, both in 16 gauge.
Now that's a good time
I don’t know if I’m a true fan or not, but I have seen this episode twice on tv, and now once on the TH-cams, also have listened to every podcast and still get excited at the reruns on you tube every time I see one. This is hands down one of my favorite episodes. I also live in texas and work in Michigan and the no dove season BOGGLES my mind!
Makes me want to go out and start planting fields now
Pounding those Yeunlings. Damn good beer damn good family that runs it. Know them well.
So good to see shooters eating their quarry and you made my mouth water when I watched you preparing the feast.
Thank you Steve, I truly enjoyed that....reminded me of dove hunting with my brothers growing up....
Dove hunting is a southern tradition like opening day of pheasant season in Michigan. >>>>>>------------>
Thank you Steve for the memories. I used to love dove hunting and I so miss it. It was always the kick off to hunting season here in Georgia. Always loved the breast with jalapeño and bacon on the grill. Your the best.
Meateater’s is providing new ideas and helping invigorate wild game preparation. It used to be very difficult to find excellent recipes and methods of preparing wild game.
There was a enormous need for a modernization of Natural food preparation. Bravo !
My wife fries them for me. One of my faves!
This is my holy grail I love the 16 gauge. I love dove hunting cooking and rare bird dogs. You have nailed it sir not to mention I 've been everywhere in this country and think the Shannondoha valley is one the most beutiful places in it.
He has the best job on earth
The man with the green suspenders had a pretty neat 1100. I got a peek of it at the safety meeting
Love Steven and his friends when they pull out a new hunting video. Plus I’m going to rewatch the Netflix series.!
This one and the small game with Kevin Murphy are our 2
Favorite episodes we have probably watched them both at least 100 times.
that 16 gauge is a fine piece of equipment and that is a understatement.
Fantastic training on such a fun sport- both clays and birds. Good job.
DOVE HUNTING IS MY FAVORITE
I think I have seen this episode at least 20 times now. It is still my favorite.
Beautiful to see the continued tradition and fellowship involved in the hunt. I pray for your continued success .
As a Virginian… There’s nothing like dove season
Good old boys having a GREAT TIME, I love it!!
Hunting doves in Johnston County, NC are some of my earliest hunting memories. Good times. We don’t have a season here in Maine but they often land in my garden to forage around. Makes me hungry every time.. and I remind them how lucky they are.
First time I saw someone making his own ammo really cool!
the host is the F*in man. love it
My buddy and I used to skip school September 1st for the WV dove opener and our dads would take us. Half the time we’d run into most of our teachers out there
Ronny what a legend.
Godda love a man who shoots a 16. That my favorite gauge. Great video
Awe man. Tears of happiness is all I can say. ❤
I don’t think I’ve seen anything look more fun in my life
The amount of hunting etiquette these people have is awsome!
Steve has such a talent for hunting
Dove hunts are the most fun, lackadaisical hunts there are. You sit around with your friends and family and chit chat and shoot birds. Then everyone gets together for supper afterwards.
Probably one of my favorite eps across all seasons. Sept 1 can't come soon enough!
Canada loves Steve R and MeatEater 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
i love dove hunting and now i have new ideas for cooking them i love this show
I never tier of watching your videos. Perfect balance in hunting and cooking.
Love the 16 gauge!
Its Fantastic....
Tight spread and great knock down power
Nothing like a good ole southern dove shoot!
Dang it, Steven! You're putting the love of pigeon blasting back into me!
As a Michigan woodsman, I want to experience this sometime. We came close, once, briefly, then the uninformed ended it all for us. I was saddened by it then, and still am to this day. Thanks for taking us along with you and your crazy friend Ronnie.
Come to Indiana. We’ll welcome you with open arms and minds.
My first meateater video but I've been listening to the hunting dog podcast for years.
Looks like great times, like years past. Thank you for the show.
A man of his craft enjoying his cigar.💪🏻
This is by far my favourite episode, I would love to see Steve and Ronnie do some goose episodes together.
Your content is always a must watch. This is a dove loving hunter that just wanted to say thank you.
Been hunting the same dove field for 18 years
I’m so glad you uploaded this episode! It’s one of my favorites! Watched it 5 times in a row when I found it. Here in AZ it’s perfect timing for the dove season opens on September 1st!👍🏻👍🏻🇺🇸
Seriously best hunting show.
Love that sarcastic Biography 1:45 XD ....... 16:32 LOL XD
Another great video man,looks like a fun hunt, thanks for sharing Steve
Ron freaking kills me 🤣 "Oh shit, oh fuck! I just got stung!"
*proceeds to pick up gun and shoot like a madman*
Dove is just about my favorite bird meat especially morning dove
Entretenido, informativo, recreativo, verdaderamente lo disfruté, felicitaciones.
That shooting coach was great. For some reason I can knock down birds but can't break a clay to save my life.
Great videos as always. Thanks for taking the time to make and share it. Much appreciated. Eat good.
