FPS?
(Preview)
Hello, all. Been buying a box of ammo here and there...usually, #6, #7.5 (mostly), and #8....1 1/8 to 1 1/4oz loads...Remington STS, Remington Nitro 27, and the 6's are usually Federal (field loads). My question is selecting an FPS for tree top, passing fliers. What is an effective FPS for crows?...

Why so few 16s?
(Preview)
Just wondering: Why don't many shotgunners, it seems to me, shoot 16s? I inherited a couple: one, a Stevens beater with some interesting repairs done by my grandfather, and the other a beautifully engraved Meffert external hammered double 16, with which I've actually popped a few crows. The Meffer...

Return To The Dove Field
(Preview)
Exactly five weeks after shooting the high-fence dove field where we shot 128 crows, Pete & I returned to see what we could do. We had planned to shoot yesterday, but the fog spooked us and we reset for today. We set up in a different place and got in the blind early. It was cold and breezy. The 39 de...

Quick Question on Wet Weather
(Preview)
Had planned to hunt a dove field tomorrow, but postponed it due to heavy rains. There were crows there before the rain, but what can I expect in a badly soaked sunflower field? Will they avoid a soggy field until it dries out?

New gun

I'm about to purchase a dedicated 12 for crow hunting. I really like the way the Weatherby's SA-08 feel and considering one in a 28" barrel. Any suggestions on gun/barrel length?

Another Piebald Pic

Seems like there have been quite a few posts & pictures about piebald crows lately. I always enjoy everyone's reports so figured I'd share a picture of a piebald shot earlier this year. Here is my dad holding a "lightly" piebald crow. I have shot a fair number like this over the years...

Predator decoys. To buy or not to buy?

This is my first topic, so forgive me if this is in the wrong place. I have recently been looking at Crow decoys, but during that adventure I have found a product called 'Primos Sit'n Spin'. I have never seen anyone using a predator decoy like this for Crows. So, naturally, I wanted input from the pro's on...

Crow hunting has become too popular in Minnesota

Gentlemen, I am a Newbie to this forum. I need some ideas of how to cope with the changes that have taken place in Minnesota. I read with a twinge of jealousy about the style of crow hunting in other parts of the country. For many years, my old hunting buddy, sportswriter L.P. Brezny and I had wonderful du...

A Hard Lesson Learned

Was asked by a landowner to help him out with his dove field that had been overtaken by crows. The guy I shot with last week made the connection, so the two of us checked it out Wednesday morning. This was another high-fence dove field of 20 acres. It was the nicest high-fence job I've seen, with perfec...

I was wondering what you guys used for a calling strategy in a feeding set up. We hunt a cornfield and use mostly Bob's light feeding sounds like recognition call, come here crow etc and use it fairly sparingly.

Piebald crow this morning along with an addicted 10 year old
(Preview)
Well we went this morning and my 10 year old got a new mossburg 20 guage youth model for an early Christmas present. He killed 3 out of the 17 we killed. One of the ones he shot happen to be a piebald. I think I was happier for him than he was. Needless to say he is hooked.
