| Please, Do Not Register For More Than 1 Mentored Dove Hunt at the Henges Center. The Missouri Department of Conservation (MDC) is offering a mentored dove hunting experience at the Jay and Carolyn Henges Wetland Education and Conservation Center. This program is designed for youth hunters to gain experience in dove hunting with the guidance of skilled mentors in a safe, supportive environment. Participants will learn the basics of dove hunting, including firearm safety, hunting regulations, species identification, ethical hunting practices, and shooting techniques. This hands-on learning opportunity is intended to build skills and confidence while fostering a lifelong appreciation for Missouri’s hunting heritage and natural resources. Participation is free, but registration is required. All participants must attend a mandatory pre-hunt orientation at the August A. Busch Shooting Range and Outdoor Education Center on either Saturday August 15th from 8AM – 11AM OR Monday August 17th from 5PM – 8PM. You do not need to attend both days. Participants must be 11-15 years old and Hunter Education Certified. |
