New to crow hunting so I am looking for some advice. What is the best way to get your decoys up high in the tree branches besides climbing up one.

Dick and I did not set up until 11:00 a.m. because that is when the birds started to go to water after they fed in the morning. We shot crows there all afternoon in that spot.

Late last season Paul found a big pecan orchard and gained permission to hunt it for this years season. I was just lucky enough to get the call to hunt it with him. The orchard owner, Carol was even nice enough to leave his cannons silent in an attempt to get us more birds and also turns out his dogs don't c...

I have not seen either one of you on here all season. Have the crows left your area? It can happen, several hot spots have fallen by the wayside over the past 40 odd years but new ones also are created. So what's you're story? Bob A.

Note the dove sitting in the tree during the shooting!

Here is a neat set of photos! Note how the decoys changed once the snow hit! The rest are photos I took of my partner.

A public service announcement for the Maxus shooters: Browning recommends against removing your magazine spring and spring retainer for cleaning. They say this should only be done by them or a gunsmith. This has always bothered me, since I have had magazine tubes on other shotguns get very dirty...

With rifle season starting this weekend i wanted to get one more taste of some action before hand. So i took my friend Marvin with me to a feeding area where we could get maby 15 to 30 birds. Marvin is the 75 year old gentleman who does real good at shooting skeet but on a crow hunt he cant sit still, he misses a...

Hello everyone. It has been several years since I have checked in, I found a sticker the other day that jogged my memory. I have poked around and still see some familiar names. I have not crow hunted in several years, but am still chasing the deer and ducks pretty hard. Crappie fishing and playing go...

Made the big jump couple weeks ago and purchased a new from line e-caller, namely the Foxpro Shockwave. Did a bit of research this winter and came to the conclusion that the Shockwave would best suit my coyote hunting needs and double as a great front line crow caller. Put the Shockwave through its firs...

I'm looking for motion crow decoys that are currently available and I'm only finding the MoJo. Does anyone know of others that are currently available?

I was reviewing (for about the umpteenth time) Bob A's crow shooting videos on youtube, and got quite a chuckle out of his vibrant expressions and quips each time he shot a crow. Here are a few of them for your enjoyment: Well, there's a pair Get 'em, get 'em now I see 'em You don't know what I'm going to do to...

At the moment I have 9 crow decoys and around 15 pigeon decoys. There are some pigeons around...

So it is cold and rainy outside. No need to hunt or do anything other than sit around and think...which brought up a question in my mind: As much as we post about our hunting, pictures and all, coupled with the continued growth of the anti-gun crowd and anti-hunting population, why don't they try to tra...

Hi All I'm new to the forum. I am a South African living in France. I live in a small town at the feet of Les Alpilles - a small mountain range in the South of France (Provence).

Sorry fellow crow busters. I retired March a year ago and have been slaying hogs with a passion ever since. LOL Killed 1,310 in 2018 and I am over 1,150 so far this year. Mix in a bunch of coons and coyotes and I am having a blast. But, I still love a good crow shoot. I did have a decent shoot a week or so ago killi...

It seems as though when I plan to go crow hunting, about half the time something is blocking my plans.

When I tell my wife I should have done something better or different, her response is “ Would’da, Should’da, Could’ah... Don’t Should on yourself!” and she’s right.

We hunted a new pecan orchard 2 1/2 weeks ago and got 27 crows. It is a good sized orchard, but most of the trees are young and just starting to bear nuts. The owners are quite anxious about their new venture, so when the crows returned, they were quick to call me back for a return trip. They talked me into com...

Depending on how you set up your blinds, this may be of interest to you. A friend told me about how a Maryland outfitter deals with frozen ground at his blinds and the light bulb turned on for me.

This morning Paul and I made a return trip to the orchard we hunted a couple weeks ago. Bad idea but in our defense the owner was pretty persistent in getting us back to control his crow population. Seems as though he doesn't like watching his profits fly away. As you would imagine we got our butts hand...

The local Walmart has 12 ga. Federal shotgun shells for $4.94 per box. The load is 3 - 1 1/8- 7.5 shot. Might be a good time to stock-up if you need them. I remember about 45 years ago I was living in Atlanta, Ga. and the K-mart had Alcan 12. ga. shells for $ 1.56 per box! The load was 3- 1- 8 shot, and I bought ab...
