Opening day here in Oklahoma. I thought i'd do a trial run at a place that's about a half mile from a pecan orchard. Got in at first light & got set up without being spotted. Started with some soft calling on the mouth call & here they came a few at a time. My shooting was on spot ! One shot, one bird. ov...

Two cowboys were face to face in a life or death gunfight. One of them had a coach who whispered in one cowboys ear, "Take your time and hurry". You have probably heard this phrase yourself. I think it also applies to crow hunting, in that we can take our time preparing for the hunting season, as crow seas...

You guys remember that pre-Christmas morning angst. Your mind racing, thinking what could be under that tree. Well I have the same angst now waiting for season to start. I have made ready my gear so many times it looks like it is a 100 years old. My impatience is just about to get the better of me, it is...

I could sure use some help killing crows in the North Central Texas area in my pecan orchard. It's only 8 acres but its located next to Lake Ray Robert's Corps Property which is heavily wooded and a wildlife refuge area. The black devils are robbing me blind. They haven't been called all year. I just shoo...

A friend and fellow crow hunter invited me on a dove hunt at his property. He has a beautifully planted field of corn, sorghum and sunflowers that draw in lots of birds. Only problem is that some of the birds are crop-stealing crows! He asked me to come up and hunt crows in the AM and doves in the PM. It w...

Hello all. It has been a long time but I'm back. I have a question and I'm sure it has been asked a bunch but here goes (again).

Shoot or don't shoot the scouts that leave the roost to check out your calls. One fellow with over 20,000 kills says Don't let the scouts get away kill them. If they don't come back the murder thinks they found something good to eat so they didn't return. The other fellow says don't shoot them let them ret...

Never fails. Always some cheese wizard goes and throws away a good thing-they go and shoot up their local roost.
