Hi, I'm new to the forum, and fairly new to crow hunting. I live in the Northeastern part of CT and tried crow hunting (all on public land) the last 2 seasons with no luck. I've tried different times of the day, different locations, different times of the year, different calls, crow decoys and owl decoys...

My father only owned two shotguns in his entire life.. One is a mint Browning A5 Light that dad picked up new in 1961 as pictured. He coddled this shotgun, never taking it out of a gun case until the deeks were out and ready to shoot. Rescued it from the old mans gun locker a few days ago as it has been entombed...

Friend of mine got wind of an annual crow shoot held by a wildlife association in a rural area a couple hours west of my home. He is not an accomplished crow shooter and I'm not an overly competitive person but he easily talked me into entering. Morning of the big day, yesterday, proved to be less than idea...

Stevens model 200? It fires one round and when you eject the shell the arms let's go of the slide when you try to put in the next round. Had it for 15 years and know little about it. Figured you guys know your old guns better than I.

I am looking for a new way to set up my blinds. I have tried a few different things. So far my best results have been with electric fence poles that i can step into the ground but they are still short. Have you all ever used any kind of extendable poles that are stable and will allow a net to be hooked onto it eas...

I'm going to buy a benelli montefetro. Question I have is the barrel length 24" or 26". I'm leaning towards the 26" What would you buy?

Shot a bunch again yesterday morning, bit of sun as we have had weeks of rain wind and gloom. Used my favourite load of one ounce shot at 1300 fps. Not many flew off unscathed as conditions were great. Had a coyote bark at me most of the morning from 300 yards distant...things one sees when you don't have a v...

The boy and I were out this morning after the crows as it was a school holiday. He finally got a chance to drop a few with his new 20 autoloader. Very calm and birds were easily aware of any movement. 12 year old head bobbing around didn't help much. Photo of my sons first kill with his new shooting iron. Ted...

It's never too early, and never enough time to prepare for the next hunting season! To prepare for the next season, I purchased a FoxPro Super Snow Crow Pro (SSCP).

I bought a pair of Walker Alpha 360 electronic ear muffs about 2 years ago. Suppose to be the best thing since Reno sin. Bull.

Out 20 miles north of the ranch at daybreak. Cold and windy. Crows were tardy but managed 15 KIA's and missed plenty too. Shots were in tight which is typical of windy conditions. Mangled some real good at 10-15 yards. Hopefully the migration picks up so I can double these numbers soon. Some dead crows f...
