Working on the crows
(

)
(Preview)
We got a couple hunts in before the first of the year, but have been after 'em more diligently since, especially when the second half of our split season opened on 14 Jan. We've noticed the numbers wintering here are down significantly. Probably less than half of last winter and we thought they were d...

Johnny Stewart Crow CDs

I have looked for some time now trying to find Jonny Stewarts crow calling CDs s like the one shown in the link below. I understand that the cds are the only way that you can down load his sounds to my FoxPro Prairie Blaster. Does any one know where I can buy them or if you have them would you consider sell...

Decoys
(Preview)
I’ve studied crows feeding in the 200 acre pumpkin patch and arrange my decoys in the same manner. I believe I’m doing it correctly because Mr. crow and his accomplices land with the decoys.

A real greenhorn

Hi, new member here and I've always wanted to try to shoot some crows. I have bought a low cost caller so far and I would like to get some decoys. The only ones available in my area are the Flambeau Hard Crow Decoy #5900cr. They are normally $14.99 and are on sale for $7.99. Will these work and how many will I...

Spilled Blood

Greetings my fellow crowbusters, Sigh. Just sigh. Does anyone else have to bleed a little with everything they do? :) On a recent crow hunt I was pulling some beautiful ditch grass to finish my blind. You can see it in the background of the picture. I learned long ago to not let the grass slide thru yo...

Another Battle With Fish Crows
(Preview)
About a month ago we hunted in a flooded rice field nearby and had a decent hunt. The owners wanted to hunt again as the fish crows were still active. Since the last hunt, the fields have been drained and that brought in more crows. When I arrived at 4:30 PM to set up the blind, there was a group of about 2...

Crow Education
(Preview)
Today was an educated hunt. Being new to the sport, and solo hunting there are many mistakes made. I’m perusing this sport like I do with everything. When I started I purchased a FoxPro. I was not impressed, so I pulled out my Johnny Stewart Pray Master. I cranked it up and had Crows flocking by the 100s. T...

Scouting

Good morning everyone, headed out to do some scouting for this weekend hunting. The forecast is snow today. I want to see if they will visit the watermelon patch to feed. It’s on the flyway by several dairy farms which I can also hunt. The Amish gave permission in exchange for a driver to town to get su...

New to the sport, new to Crow language.

Good afternoon, a little background and history. I was introduced to the sport 25 years ago. I never had time then. I Trapped Coyone mainly for the joy of out smarting them and the profit they bring. I Turkey hunt also. Quite a vocabulary they have. I just started hunting them this January 6. With a 1000...

A visit from three crow hunters from Oklahoma.
(Preview)
Had a very nice visit with Dale and his son Colt. Paul rode with them from Oklahoma to Kansas for a tour of the crow museum. Paul gave me some deer sausage from a white tail that he shot this season. Dale paid for lunch so how can you beat a deal like that.

About Johnny Stewart ( The Man )

One of you said that the Johnny Stewart crow call's are the gold standard and i agree. I find it ironic that sound's from the 60's or 70's are not outdone with today's technology. Doing a little digging i found a video where Johnny's son was talking of how when he was young his dad would drive Texas back roa...

Avery Greenhead Decoys.

Another Newbie Question Avery crow decoys seem to be more expensive than all the others on the market. Are they worth the extra costs? They also seem larger? Is there advantage to being larger? Thanks for your help with answering

While deer hunting earlier, my friend had seen some streams of crows headed toward the dump and thought it would be good enough to hunt. After di...
