'nuff is a damn 'nuff
(Preview)
When crow hunting, there is nothing more aggravating than equipment failure. Especially when it's 6:00 AM, 15 degrees, and still dark. I have had this happen to me about 50 times during the past 8-10 years. I finally got tired, fed-up, and disgusted beyond endurance, and became determined to fix a p...

Piebald From the SAME Location 4 Years In A Row. Yup. Pic.
(Preview)
Here is a picture from earlier in Michigan's season...when we actually had some snow. This is the 4th year in a row that I shot a piebald from this same blind location.

Crow photos from the late 1950's and late 1960's.
(Preview)
The first photo is of my dad and I in 1957 when I used an air rifle for the cripples, I was 9 years old in this first photo. The second photo is of my dad's stuffed owl where his head and wings moved on a timer. He had a live owl also! The third photo was taken in the fall of 1965 in South Dakota.

Hello All! It's been some time that I have been able to join in the conversations and even longer getting into the field for crows. Well, I finally did get to call some and I also introduced an extended family member, John, to the fun of crow hunting. I went to Delaware for the conservation snow goose seas...

Classic old crow hunting photos.
(Preview)
Pete (NH Crow) got me enthused to post some of these photos. I have posted some of them in the past but if you think about how fast time goes by just look at the time span between Pete's photos from 1953 and 1954 to a mere 10 years later in some of the waterfowl photos. The crow hunting photos date back to 1974 t...

What sounds are you not leaving the house without?
(Preview)
For me, its the fighting crow on my FoxPro and a little custom made bite down rabbit in distress caller! When the fighting crow sound starts to wind down a bit or I need to turn some crows, I can hit that bite down while the fighting crow is still playing and can get some amazing results! Its just that little...

Great morning, personal best

We had our best morning to date! The morning was very calm and pretty cool. The birds trickled in pretty steady for the 2hrs we called and shot. We would have stayed longer like normal but my buddy had to be some where at 10am. Neither one of use wanted to leave. He got his first double and got "high bird" of t...

What Camo Pattern Has Worked Best For You?
(Preview)
Just generally speaking what camo patterns has everyone used and what did you like most? I've really come to like Mossy Oak Brush myself, yeah it's a brush pattern more targeted for open fields but I have found it blends against rocks very well. Realtree Xtra is also a good one, does anybody use any digi...

Last hunt of the season (for me)

Got after them this a:m and had a good shoot so-lo. Crows were wary but enough cooperated to keep me busy. Clicker showed 70 when it was over about 10 a:m. My shooting was hot and cold but I'll take it as I've shot a lot worse . Lot of fish crows have shown up on this property and I hope they go back where they ca...

The Season so far; reports on the first four hunts.
(Preview)
I didn't have much to report initially, but was inspired by today's action.Hunts 1 and 2 were almost identical, in that only two shots fired each. # 1, on 1 FEB (Opening Day) was at the same location as 1 FEB, 16, when I downed five bandits. This time, they came in and flared—even with excellent camouflag...

Crow activity picking up....
(Preview)
I don't normally do any spring crow shooting but I have colleages in the state who do so this is for them. Be alert fellows this could be a quicky for you as crows are trickling north. I hope they don't blow by the spring season so all you catch is a cold. I know if there is a sprinkling here you better think a...

First crowhunt of this year in Belgium

Hi guys Yesterday, me and my buddy went to our hunting field where we wanted to shoot some crows. We saw some of them, I could lure some of them close enough, but I must admit that we aren't the best shots We saw a few crows, not very much, and I was able to shoot one, and we missed 3 others... Well, actually...
