Dove Hunting in Mercedes, TX
The 'Queen City of the Valley' sits in the ag heartland — short drives to fields full of white-wings.
Mac's Dove Hunts runs action packed dove hunts on managed agricultural fields a short drive from Mercedes, TX (Hidalgo County). We hunt white-winged and mourning dove during the Texas South Zone season, which opens September 1, 2026, with morning and evening hunts for groups, families, and first-time hunters. To book, see Book a Hunt or call (956) 330-9537.
Mercedes earned its 'Queen City of the Valley' nickname in farm country, and that agriculture is exactly why the dove hunting here is so good. Our managed Mercedes and Donna area sunflower fields are some of the best dove habitat in the lower Valley, pulling in white-winged dove all season long.
Sitting between Weslaco and Harlingen on US-83, Mercedes is centrally located for hunters coming from either airport, with managed fields just minutes from town.
