Happy THanksgiving Fellow crowbusters!!
(Preview)
I didn't get out this year due to an injury of sorts-fell hard on my instep but it's all healed now. I am very happy with all of your reports. I have given thought to out of state non resident shooting but most licenses go about a hundred buckaroos and with a few weeks left in this year doesn't seem like a gr...

These deplorables were bleeding off a pig farm looking for trouble. Mr. Owl and company tucked them in for the night on their very own branch. They won't be a nuisance to the farmer any longer ! Happy Hunting Regards Crow Foe

Pattern density
(Preview)
Mr. Camo, The choke I use to get 55% patterns at 30 yds depends on the shell that I am shooting. Which means that I match the choke to the shell, after pattern testing. No single choke will shoot all shells to the same pattern density. I have proven this many times. One of my favorite recipes to get a 55% patt...

Favorite pattern density
(Preview)
What is your favorite pattern density to crow hunt with? After extensive pattern testing over the past two years, I have concluded that mine is 55% at 30 yds. Fifty-five percent gives a dense-enough, and open-enough pattern to be what I feel is very effective. I try to shoot crows between 25 and 35 yard...

Last Half of Crow Week '18
(Preview)
With Jerry Tomlin's guidance, we had a fun and productive hunt last month. But since his death, I tried to salvage the second half of our annual crow hunting gathering by acting as the guide. Here is my report, such that it was. Keep in mind that this gathering is as much about social interactions as i...

No records set today.
(Preview)
Coming off our victory over the bandits yesterday we where full of confidence that today would be no different. So, we headed for the pecan farm we hunted a month ago, killed 35 that hunt. We had a south, southeast wind this morning, perfect for hunting this particular farm. There aren't very many t...

The shoot could of ended right there and it would of been a success in my book. But, it didn’t they kept co...

A Solo Milestone
(Preview)
While at a local Bible study Thursday, a participant complained about crows eating the pecans at his property. I told him “We need to talk!” He had 6-8 trees along side of a field of corn stubble. We set it up for a hunt today, but the guy I was going with bailed out last night. Too late for a replacement, so...

We had a really good day today in spite of several bumps in the road. The first was finding goose hunters in the field we planned to hunt.

Gone With The Wind, so long Ft. Cobb crows
(Preview)
Gone With The Wind? No, no, not the movie. Young farmers...gone with the wind. Yep, young farmers. As years go by, more and more farms in America are closing the barn door, for the last time. Why, because many young people today do not want a life of scratching out a living by digging in dirt. Many have gon...

Food sources needed for large numbers of crows.
(Preview)
Been looking over google earth and looking for possible hunting areas. In my neck of the woods there isn't a ton of farming, but there is some along the rivers. There isn't more than a few square miles of farming in any one area. Is this a large enough food source to hold a decent amount of birds? Havin...

Rembering a Fellow Crowman
(Preview)
A friend and fellow crow hunting buddy sent this photo to me this afternoon. Don’t remember the particulars of this hunt, but judging by the smiles, it must have been a good one. With Jerry, there were very few bad ones. He will be missed, but the memories will be many. Demi

Having heck with hand calls.

I have bought Bobs cd on handcalling crows and his hunting dvd. I still can not figure out how to use the dang mouth calls I have. I have bought two high end calls, one is a Mallard tone and the other one I can't remember the make. My problem is the reed continues to stick on me. This happens after just a fe...

About 20 minutes after daylight a bunch of crows were raising a fuss a few hundred yards away. I couldn't see them but by the sound of thin...

Crows are back
(Preview)
I noticed the crows seemed to disappear about a month ago but in the last week it seems that the birds are back, do you think these are birds that are migrating down from up north, I’m in Indiana. If so will these birds stay through out the winter.

We ended the day with 96 down. We didn't bust the century mark today but we came close and had a good shoot. Below is a picture from our se...

We hunted from first light until 1:30 PM and put 89 birds on the ground. We used a pair of vintage auto loaders, a Remi...

Not Like Last Year...But

After checking a pecan orchard that harvested nearly 250 crows in three hunts last year, I knew it would be slow. No irrigation, hot summer and no fertilizer equals very few nuts. But I’ll be leaving out of town for a few days and didn‘t want to wait. I put up the blind yesterday and talked a coworker into g...

Mini, or small, shotgun aiming systems

Have any of you ever tried hunting with a shotgun with a mini size shotgun optical aiming system, or small telescope, mounted on it? Actually , I believe that these aiming aids are NOT telescopes, as the ones I've read about do not magnify the image. One popular brand is Aimpoint, and I believe that ther...
