Does anyone know what the first 9 or 10 seconds of the JS Crow Come Here is? Is that a death/wounded crow or is it something else? It doesn't sound like their Death Cry sound.

Charles and I went out today, I just got home an hour ago. We had the best day ever for just the 2 of us. We setup in one spot, in a gravel pit. We put the decoys on the ground about 35 yds in front of us with the FoxPro. We climbed up on top of a gravel pile and dug into the snow. We were wearing all white and piled s...

Forty two total. Pictured are the ones that landed in the field. The rest were in the briers or the drink. Shot 86 shells. I am starting to like the 1200 fps loads of 1 1/8 oz. I would have killed for a more open choke as the birds were very low and in my face. One particular direction they came from the first sh...

I have been researching about air gun hunting and stumbled across this video. English fellow uses it for magpies, but it should work for crows with some minor changes. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nupDmSf6R8g ***Excuse me if this is old to you. Paul

I recently found a fly way about 5 weeks ago. The only land I can hunt is state land and its about a mile and a half from the roost. I am very confident that no one else is hunting them in this area, maybe even the entire state for that matter. I have hunted crows for well over 10 years and found to have most of my s...

Charles and I have hit the jackpot as far as crows go. At least for Maine. While driving around last week, we stumbled upon a flyway where the crows are basically following a river. As luck would have it, we have permission to hunt some property along this flyway. Right now, we have about 30 inches of sno...

I know some folks hunt different types of terrain and cover. What camo works where you live? I hunt the lake bottoms of east Tn and when the lake goes down to winter pool nothing matches the rock and boulders of our lakes like natgear. It works great in the woods and open fields too. There snow camo looks...

I stopped by the Hobby Store today to pick up a motor for my Buster II. My daughter and I were just coming in from a hunt and still in camo.

Well I'm done for the season. Went out on 28 hunts and shot 4,762 crows, the shoots I shared with Dick bring the grand total to 6,574 crows. I don't have an exact figure yet on how many Dick shot alone this season. I know his largest solo shoot this season was right after I headed home after breaking my rib in...

Bob...NJ here. Hey guys, I finally joined and am sorry I waited so long. Its great to see others that are into crow hunting as much as I am. I enjoy it more than deer hunting.

It has been brutal here in the deep southern portion of Illinois. Most of the birds have gone south. What few are left have a Harvard scroll around their neck. While waiting for a reverse migration one needs to keep his shooting eyes honed With a little help from JR. and one of his road dogs that can alway...

Here is a new legal attack on lead ammo. I could not imagine I would be doing as much crow hunting if forced to use non-toxic ammunition. I suspect that day will come I just hope it's after I am gone. Is there anything more incongruent than giving our military "green" bullets? WTF their purpo...

Went out this morning with my buddy with the temp at and the windchill at -15. I never hunted crows in weather this cold but it wasn't bad. We killed 32 crows in the first hour and half of light but should have killed twice as many. We had so many layers of clothes on that we had an off day shooting. Has...

Surely some of you reload so what is a good load for crow shooting? I will be using Remington hulls and either 7.5 or 6 shot. (maybe some of each untill I settle on what my Browning likes best.

I live close to the Arkansas River and I've noticed lots of crows around my various duck/goose hunting spots. Has anyone ever used their boat to crow hunt sandbars on a river before? My plan is to load in, run the river to a spot, shoot some crows, run down another mile or so, shoot some more, etc.

Do you differentiate between the two different birds?? I only go for crow's myself as the Raven is a special bird mentioned in the Bible in Genesis 8:7 as the bird that Noah sent to find land. What is your feedback fellow "Crow Busters"????

I drove through upstate NY yesterday afternoon on the NY Thruway. Heading East a little west of Shecnectady I saw a large manure pile with many crows inbound to it from every direction.
