Maxus Magazine Tube Dissassembly
(Preview)
A public service announcement for the Maxus shooters: Browning recommends against removing your magazine spring and spring retainer for cleaning. They say this should only be done by them or a gunsmith. This has always bothered me, since I have had magazine tubes on other shotguns get very dirty...

Water hole shoot.
(Preview)
Dick and I did not set up until 11:00 a.m. because that is when the birds started to go to water after they fed in the morning. We shot crows there all afternoon in that spot.

Decoys in the trees

New to crow hunting so I am looking for some advice. What is the best way to get your decoys up high in the tree branches besides climbing up one.

A Team Event.

Late last season Paul found a big pecan orchard and gained permission to hunt it for this years season. I was just lucky enough to get the call to hunt it with him. The orchard owner, Carol was even nice enough to leave his cannons silent in an attempt to get us more birds and also turns out his dogs don't c...

Hello everyone. It has been several years since I have checked in, I found a sticker the other day that jogged my memory. I have poked around and still see some familiar names. I have not crow hunted in several years, but am still chasing the deer and ducks pretty hard. Crappie fishing and playing go...

A New Toy For Me...Bad Day For the Crows
(Preview)
Made the big jump couple weeks ago and purchased a new from line e-caller, namely the Foxpro Shockwave. Did a bit of research this winter and came to the conclusion that the Shockwave would best suit my coyote hunting needs and double as a great front line crow caller. Put the Shockwave through its firs...

Bob Aronsohn's humor!

I was reviewing (for about the umpteenth time) Bob A's crow shooting videos on youtube, and got quite a chuckle out of his vibrant expressions and quips each time he shot a crow. Here are a few of them for your enjoyment: Well, there's a pair Get 'em, get 'em now I see 'em You don't know what I'm going to do to...

A Post for a Nasty Day - Random Question
(Preview)
So it is cold and rainy outside. No need to hunt or do anything other than sit around and think...which brought up a question in my mind: As much as we post about our hunting, pictures and all, coupled with the continued growth of the anti-gun crowd and anti-hunting population, why don't they try to tra...

Sorry fellow crow busters. I retired March a year ago and have been slaying hogs with a passion ever since. LOL Killed 1,310 in 2018 and I am over 1,150 so far this year. Mix in a bunch of coons and coyotes and I am having a blast. But, I still love a good crow shoot. I did have a decent shoot a week or so ago killi...

The reason I am not in this photo when President Regan was in the White House in the mid 1980's is because this dinner was held in October! My father never forgave me for turning down a dinner with the President because it was "crow season" in Kansas. I told my dad I would love to attend at any other time of ye...

Irritants
(Preview)
It seems as though when I plan to go crow hunting, about half the time something is blocking my plans. These irritants,I call them, generally three of them, cause more interference and aggravation than all other things together. My leading irritants (not in order) are...no crows, weather, deer hun...

When I tell my wife I should have done something better or different, her response is “ Would’da, Should’da, Could’ah... Don’t Should on yourself!” and she’s right. I’ve been burning my candle at both ends lately, so after dragging myself out of bed at 3:30 to hunt crows, I was so tired that my shooting...

A Quick Return To An Orchard
(Preview)
We hunted a new pecan orchard 2 1/2 weeks ago and got 27 crows. It is a good sized orchard, but most of the trees are young and just starting to bear nuts. The owners are quite anxious about their new venture, so when the crows returned, they were quick to call me back for a return trip. They talked me into com...

Depending on how you set up your blinds, this may be of interest to you. A friend told me about how a Maryland outfitter deals with frozen ground at his blinds and the light bulb turned on for me.

How much piebald is enough piebald?

This morning Paul and I made a return trip to the orchard we hunted a couple weeks ago. Bad idea but in our defense the owner was pretty persistent in getting us back to control his crow population. Seems as though he doesn't like watching his profits fly away. As you would imagine we got our butts hand...

Shotgun shells
(Preview)
The local Walmart has 12 ga. Federal shotgun shells for $4.94 per box. The load is 3 - 1 1/8- 7.5 shot. Might be a good time to stock-up if you need them. I remember about 45 years ago I was living in Atlanta, Ga. and the K-mart had Alcan 12. ga. shells for $ 1.56 per box! The load was 3- 1- 8 shot, and I bought ab...
