Some time back I posted some pics of a guys house that had crow decoys all in his back yard.. (sorry can't find the post) Well today, I happened to see him outside and stopped asked why. He told me he was raised in the country and now he builds bird houses and puts them all over his yard.. thus raising birds.....

Hi there. I've been reading through this site and listening to Bob's podcasts while looking to get into shooting crows. Before buying a large e-caller, new barrel for my 870 HD gun and rucksack to carry it to the nearest public hunting area I was wondering if it's could call them to my back yard to take w...

Hunted an area for the 5th time since Sept. and blinded up in the same sweet spot for the fourth time, tried to move but this spot offers the best chance. Four of us hunted and this is something we have only done a time or two with limited sucess. Had hopes of some new birds moving in but was not the case. We t...

Hi Everyone, Some of my common/annoying problems is keeping my decoys clean and not have a conferable pair of hunting gloves for shooting. It comes down to having a (warm hands – bad shooting) or (cold hand - good shooting). I prefer good shooting… Anyone have a thoughts or tricks on keeping decoys cl...

This week has been one of those truly busy ones that keeps me on my toes. Crow hunt on Monday, early monthly staff meeting, Estimator out w/ burst appendix, meet with doctor about shoulder, meetings, Boy Scout fundraiser work, etc. plus throw in a minor fender-bender. And of all weeks to be on the ru...

One of the local dove field owners asked me to help with his crow problem. As you may have seen on an earlier post, there were hundreds of crows coming in to this field and eating all of his corn & soybeans. Most of the crows were fish crows, but there was a healthy population of common crows to make th...

Long time lurker, first time poster. Trying not to bore you with the regular old 101 type questions, I've done some hunting and spent some time reading here so hopefully I'm ready for the "202" style tactics! I could pound my chest and say I've been calling crows for 16 years but that really...

I've been looking at what I can find on motion decoys and it looks like the buster II is fairly well known to the folks on this forum. What could I expect as far as uninterrupted flapping out of a fresh set of good batteries? Are there any other reasonable alternatives as far as this type of decoy? Any help i...

Today I ordered a new decoy. The Expedite Triple Play. When it shows up next week I'll post a review of what I think and how well it works. Here's a photo if you haven't seen one before; It rotates about 90 degrees, then stops, which causes each separate decoy to wiggle/move back and forth, then rotes aga...

These days, it is quite fashionable to beat up on "The Rich" and you see it everywhere. It's in the news, in politics and in everyday conversations. As one who knows how much these people pump into our economy, I don't buy into it. As a matter of fact, they support my industry (constructio...

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).

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...

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...

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? Demi

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?
