The Governors Dove Hunt happens every September, with or without the governor, on a farm outside Bell Buckle, just southeast of Nashville. It’s the Tennessee Wildlife Federation’s big fundraising event. Hunters pay a thousand dollars apiece to shoot…but there’s a lot more to it than just harvesting birds. Wild Side Guide Craig Owensby takes us to the field to find out more.
