What call would you choose "Given these 2 scenarios?"

As a new guy I know this has probably been put on before but I would like your opinions. We all have our own experiences and each and every one of these calls below can be HOT in the right situation, depending on the landscape, the day, the hunter, the mood of the birds, etc.... Option 1: IF SOMEONE RESTRI...

Had a good weekend.
(Preview)
Made a couple of short hunts this weekend and managed a total of 44. I shot better that I ever have with longer shots and more quartering away kills than I have been able to make. Shorting up the lead on those long birds definitely helped. The close birds are still point and click and works just like it alwa...

How to lead a crow in a perfect world.
(Preview)
OK. I am one of those that can't sleep till I figure it out. The time it takes shot to travel to the bird and the lead thing has been bothering me. When birds are close, less that 30 yards, I do well. When they are out there a ways I usually miss. I did some searching and here is what I found. I referenced a downra...

Here is a link to a blind I bought about 6 months ago. Light and easy to put up. I have used it for crows and coyotes and it works well. The straps on front for putting on more natural cover are the bomb. www.zingerwinger.com I bought the 7 panel unit. The carrying stap works well. -------------kevin----...

How far can you call a crow?
(Preview)
I am just curious as to how far you feel you can call a crow with a e-caller or hand call? I am certain I called birds the other day from 1/2 - 3/4 of a mile. I judged this distance based on 40 acre sections. I believe the birds were catercorner across two 40 acre sections in an adjoining field. So basicly they w...

A few fishy crows.

I pulled up to the school this morning to drop off my little one for his speech class and there were fishes everywhere. The one picture I wish I had gotten was of the 25-30 in the middle of a field that were in a 10' circle. It was the strangest thing, no crows anywhere else in that field except in that little 1...

Partial Piebald, and a pair of yotes.

On Saturday, I duck hunted with a buddy of mine, and when we finished, we turned to crows. In 45 minutes, we knocked down and recovered 16, including a partial piebald that he shot. It only had 3 white feathers, but still pretty neat. On Sunday, I duck hunted by myself, and then called up and shot tw...
