Format decides the price, not the outfitter
The spread comes down to format, not location. The $125–$225 tier is a half-day or an opening-day hunt — you show up, shoot a field, go home. The $300–$550 tier adds a full day, lodging, and more than one meal, sometimes a warm-up round of skeet before the birds start flying. Neither is wrong. It's the difference between an afternoon and a trip.
What the number above doesn't include
One thing the range above does not include: a per-bird fee some outfitters charge once you've taken your limit and want to keep shooting. That's a supplemental charge on top of the hunt, not part of what the hunt itself costs, so it's left out here — ask about it when you book if you're planning to stay in the field past your first limit.
A small, specific market, not an average
Dove hunting in Alabama is a specialty booking next to deer, quail and turkey — eight outfitters, not dozens — so treat this as a real, current number rather than a market average. If you're weighing it against a bigger trip, a handful of these same outfitters also run guided duck hunts in the state, worth a look if your dates overlap dove and duck season.

We went for the dove shoot on opening day and it was great. Started with a warm up on skeet then ate an amazing lunch. The dove shoot itself was fun with a lot of action…
