some places allow electronic calls, but most places ban them for bird hunting, SO, here we go. My apologies for not being on for a long time, but had wild fowling, rabbit, and fox shooting to do, as crow shooting is only when crops are planted, or harvested, as that's when they are doing damage, and the o...

I read that during the Arkansas crow season, crows cannot be shot on Tuesdays and Wednesdays. Does anyone here know what the rationale for this is? Thanx!

Since its slow, how bout sharing your best Hunting time, doesn't have to be about numbers killed, just that great day afield after Mr. Crow. Mine so far would have to be with the boys (Men) last fall had a lot of fun on this particular hunt. Started at 1:30a:m when we left, we started cutting up right out...

Well fellas they did it again! I sent my 24 in to have the battery wires replaced. It came back in less than a week with cables that u could use on an Abrams tank . They took the liberty to replace the knob on my remote. It's ten times better now!!! And as usual no charge. Amazing company!!! They flat take care...

Would you guys be interested in me e-mailing Gordon copies of letters that Bert Popowski sent to me back in the 1070's? Gordon could put them in with the vintage crow shooting articles section on the home page. Also some articles that were written about me over a 40 year period in magazines and news p...

Fat lady's singing here as the spring shooting is winding down. Marked difference in numbers when compared to a week ago. Out yesterday morning in a virtual wind storm...gusting up to 35 mph. Shot about a dozen, shot to kill ratio was terrible. Picked up after an hour as very cold. This morning it was a...

10ga and I got again this morning, weather was overcast with almost no wind. We saw our first ball of 100 or so crows today so they have started to move into our area. We had a couple of high birds come in and circle overhead, we saw some white on the wings so we figured we had nothing to lose. 10ga shot firs...

Went out for crow with the Master Saturday morning. Took a bit of C4 to get an 11 year old out of bed at zero dark thirty but the effort was well worth watching my son knock crows from the sky with his 410. Morning started "bluebird" clear and frosty. Had good numbers of crows entering the kill zo...

Finally after 10 years of my wife just going to the range and just shooting at targets with her pistol, I got to watch my son teach her how to defend herself in actual scenario's (drawing from purse and shooting and other concealed carry options).

Not enough crows up here yet to warrant a shotgun hunt but had a bit of fun sniping some early migrants yesterday. Set up my caller at the base of a big old oak and let it do it's magic. Sunrise brought a few visitors which circled and kicked up a fuss. A few would land up top the oak and look down to find the sour...

Out again at first light, cold crisp and frosty. Shot from an opening at the edge of a willow slough. Steady shooting from 07:00 up to 08:30,, stragglers after that but enough to keep my interest. Finished off with 39 good crows and several possibles. Shot some nice doubles and a triple all with a pump gu...

...so I thought I'd take it upon myself to post some dead crows. Getting out regularly mornings only and getting a bit of shooting. No big numbers as this is not characteristic of spring shooting here but enough to remedy the cabin fever from this past winter. Pics of my blind at sunrise, first crow of th...

Some kids were trying out their snowmobiles near town and scared up these guys near their roost. There were about that many already in the trees around sundown time. New to hunting crows and trying to find their flyway zones. Was just impressed by their numbers and thought I would share.

This morning, I drove a whole one mile outside of the city limits to see if I could work off some frustration on our “townies,” who fly about our small town making their racket with impunity inside the city limits where shooting is illegal.

Turns out that this was to be my last outing for the FEB-MAR MI season, so I went to a couple of favorite spots to see if I could whack a couple of “townies.” A bit cool this a.m., at 9 Deg.

I had a very decent season. I did not hunt until after Veterans Day. I ended up with a total of 718 birds on the ground. Heavy snow cover and temps in the teens depleted the numbers toward the end.
