The TCP just wrapped up its annual varmint shooting trip to the Texas Panhandle. Once of our part time patrolmen showed up to this years shoot equipped with a new set of wheels. We quickly dubbed this device the "Prairie Schooner". Unfortunately, there weren't a whole lot of rodent tar...

Although the NH season doesn't start until 8/15 nearby Maine opened on 8/1. I got out yesterday afternoon with my partner for the mosquito and tick feeding season opener. The first shot of the season for both of us killed a bird which I take as a good omen. Only one more bird came in during a 3 hour sta...

Shot a few crows yesterday evening, hot muggy and the birds did not cooperate much. Set up along a hedge row between two corn fields. None the less had an interesting visitor poke it's nose into my blind. Heard some rustling, a couple snorts and there it was, a black bear looking at me from no more than ei...

You can use a diffe...

I did my first hunt today with one of my friends. It was a really good hunt, a lot of crows and a lot of greats shots!! There is not a lot of crows here (Quebec, Canada), the migration is not started so there is only local crows, but there is enough to have fun!! Dont shoot this! [IMG]https://i138.photobuck...

I like to hunt crows and buy numerous types of callers.

Pat B · Pat B

OK, I'm a step closer to buying a foxpro. The one I was looking at comes with 50 sounds. They only have 13 sound files under the heading "Crows and magpies". I do not hunt coyotes. Nothing against it, just don't do it. So what other sounds would you use for crowhunting that would fill up between...

JR. went 17 for 26 and the old man went 10 for 12. Believe it or not I took Bob A's advice and shot the Federals from wally world. $20.97 for 100 rounds, They w...

Lots of guys who come on here should really listen to it. Heck every time I listen to it on a plane ride I pick up at least one more bit of knowledge on black bandits. I think the moderator on this site should host it on here and make it a sticky :) Looks like it is hot in Kansas now. Thanks John

Bob was generous enough to send me 2 Rock Crow Decoys that he donated to my crow museum. I am sure it will take time for me to get a good collection going but not a better way to start off. Thanks so much! John

Brother crow busters I have added something to my arsenol that is worthy of mention!!!! I purchased a brand new 2010 model Polaris Sportsmen 500. And it truly is a beast between the legs!!!

I'm gonna try some pics again. The white stuff in the feed lot is why I cant retrieve my dead birds. I'ts a semi caustic lime that burns your skin when you touch it.

Hey, I just watched a movie made in 2008 and shot in Canada called "New in Town" and it had three dummies trying to crow hunt. The blind was pretty good I must say, but the scene was very lame.
