I am going to try to go in the morning and was just wanting some opinions i have everything from a skeet tube to a extra full. Any thoughts would be appreciated.
 
If you are hunting where the birds are flying high you would appreciate the full. Lower quick shooting in an area with many trees, an improved cylinder would work, Overall average is Modified. I carry my 20 gauge pump action with the Mod choke. I carry #5 shot for higher flying doves and #6 for closer averaging shots. Works well for me.</p>
 
i am goin to be hunting in south georgia on a open field that had corn planted on it. im using my 12 gauge pump and i have 6 & 7 1/2 shot.
 
Liveliner nailed it.
I would take an I/C for starters and if the birds get to flying a bit high then switch to modified. You have to be a decent shot to hit many with a full choke. I am not good enough to do it consistently.
