hunted a dairy farm today.
(Preview)
I went with my cousin's husband today to a new dairy farm. Had only a coulple of minuets to scout last night and set up this morning for a 10-20 mph south wind that never materialized. It would have been a great set IF the wind had blown. Just never know I guess. We managed to squeek out 36 before heading into...

The video is of me, using my snow goose call to make seagull type sounds ... and I was actually able to call the...

Big Thanks to a fellow Crow Buster
(Preview)
A big thanks goes out to Black Duck Nick and his buddy Ed for hosting a hunt for me and my usual crow hunting buddy. We set up before sunrise and at some point in the hunt we had 3 foxpros going at the same time and crows coming in hard and fast. Nick had a great blind made of cedar and old Christmas trees. He hunt...

Bob, While looking at the FoxPro website, I see that I can purchase, "Pick up 10 high-quality crow sounds produced by legendary crow hunter, Bob Aronsohn." (Very cool, by the way, that they are selling your sounds.) Anyway, when they say you produdced these sounds. Does that mean you reco...

JS Crow Come Here???

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.

Today's snow/crow hunt

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...

killed my age plus one to grow on.
(Preview)
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...

Dead crows for decoys

I need some advice on my set-up
(Preview)
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...

CROWS in the SNOW

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...

Favorite camo pattern
(Preview)
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...
