Only picked up 38. But that does bring the total to 295 out of this pecan orchard. Left a few more it the treeline. Most shots were 30 - 45 yards which is far for us. This is Savannah with her crow. She cleaned up at a few cripples. Two were picked up after the pic was taken for anyone that is counting. [IMG]ht...

I have a question for you guys on here about mouth blown calls. I have 3 or 4 of these calls but I can't call a crow in with them. (They are all pretty cheap, the best one I have is a Mallard Tone) I know what a call should sound like, I can call them in with just my voice. There have even been times when my Fox Pro do...

I have been trying to figure out how to judge distance on crows. I am a painter and the last few days I have been working on an exterior of a home in a very nice open neighborhood. There are lots of crows in the area that like to frolic and play around the yards and ponds. Each time I think there is one within kil...

Just tried a box of 12 ga 2 3/4" 3dram 1 1/8 oz 7 1/2 shot heavy loads AA's, really like the way they shoot. Anyone else notice a difference with them over cheaper shells ? I assume the heavy designation indicates hardened or magnum shot. Just curious of what others think. Jerry

Went out this AM to a new farm that wasn't too promising, and sure enough, we left after less than an hour and 3 birds. Went over to a sunflower field that we had shot almost 3 weeks ago. The wind was howling, so the calling was not as effective. Numbers were lower than before, but we ended up with 25. Here...

Here in Maine, a couple of my buddies and I got into using our layout blinds for crows instead of ducks and geese. Last winter was strange up here, by the time February and March came around,(Our season is Feb/March and Aug/Sep, no Sundays) 90% of our snow was gone. So we went to our favorite farm and setup...

Anyone have pics or ways that they camouflage blinds against the snow? We have a good set up but I think that we would get more/have more shots if the blinds we use were more camo'ed against the snow.....Thanks for any help Winchester_101

How many decoys does everyone use here? What seems to be the most effective number/amount? We have about 5 now but I think we definetly need more. Thanks, Winchester_101

Here is a photo of a few fish crows and common crows together as they are taking flight. In the next photo you can see the fish crow at the top and the two common crows on the bottom of the photo. In the next photo you can see that the fish crow's bone structure is more frail than a common crow's.

I have alot of crows in my area, but no way of killing them. that said, I would like to try calling and see what works.

Please pray for my friend John Murdaugh. He had a heart attack Friday, and they revived him, but he was dead for 15 minutes. He was responsive today, but he is not out of the woods yet. He has 4 stints and a balloon. They are taking the balloon out tonight. He looks like hell. Please pray for him. Thanks.

Anyone have any good tips on judging distance on a crow in the air? I took some pairs of dead crows and spaced them at 10 yards intervals out to 50 yards.

I got a call a few days ago from my buddy JJ, who was gleefully complaining about being covered up in crows. I felt compelled to help him with this problem, so I woke up at 4:15, and drove the 87 miles to his wheat field. We set up his Snow Crow Pro, and my Fury, and put out about 20 decoys. JJ wasn't lying. W...

Hello All, I've been on and off this forum for a couple years or more. Glad to see the forum now. Last summer we hunted hard with my new Fox Pro Spitfire and 1 decoy. We used an Air crow with the spinning wings. It worked very well, but we want to also try different dekes to see if anything is better. Anybody el...

By the time we carry decoys, e-caller, guns, a case of ammo, lights and pole to hang decoys, we are tired and out of breath. Anyone have a cart of some sort that works for you?
