Gibson crow calls
(Preview)
About a week ago I received my first Darrell Gibson crow call. It is the Short Magnum call, and it is a beauty! I have been practicing with it, and within 1-2 minutes I quickly realized that I have never had a crow call that was so easy to use, and sound correctly. I'm not much of a manual crow call performer,...

Crow-shooting with killerky!

Hey guys, just a quick report without any pics. (have one of some corn stalks and decoys, but you've all seen those!) I was fortunate to have an opportunity to shoot with killerky from this forum on the weekend, and what an amazing experience it was. I think I may have overestimated the reach of my MOD...

Attention to detail
(Preview)
Went on a crow hunt Friday morning. Should have been an easy 100 bird body count. Nice pecan orchard surrounded by peanut fields. Had two buddies with me. Got everything set up and it looked good. Right from the start the birds would stay high or flare if they came in low. I kept looking for the problem and...

New member from SE Michigan
(Preview)
Hey all, Happy to find a place online where other people appreciate crow hunting. I live in southeast Michigan and I'm new to crow hunting (been hunting since the 80s otherwise). I really like the challenge of taking them with my .22 PCP rifle, but I also have a 12 gauge. I'm looking for other hunters in...

standing corn hunt
(Preview)
Had a client call me up this am and had a bad last few weeks and wanted to get out shooting. So he was at my place by 3pm and at 330 we were hiding in the rows of standing corn. I've watched the crows hitting this field hard the last week. Standing on the ears and eating the corn. By 5:10 he had 129 crows dead. He us...

Careful during deer season & Crow with a slug
(Preview)
Last weekend, after deer hunting in the morning, I decided to go pop a few crows. I chose a small slice of public land, and with a small spread began calling. There were some deer hunters in the area, but at what I thought was a safe distance. I also heard what sounded like someone target shooting, stil...

I thought I'd share with you guys the latest in my line of discrete carry items. This case safely carries my BPS and that zany but effective Metro Barrel Extension that is part of our field kit. It's 5.5" X 5.5" X 37". Restrictions on the form factor did not allow me to insert the stock...

Scouting
(Preview)
Invested two days and have drove just under a thousand miles so far with good results. Thought we had lost one of our better orchards but the previous Owner spoke well for us and We will also get to shoot a orchard the new Owner already owns. Hope we can make a good start with Him and take out a bunch of Crows....

Ghost Blind

Curious if any of you have used one of these for any type of hunting. Friend has one that he has never used and wants to get rid of it. Wondering if I might find a use for it; not necessarily for crows. Does the sun cause any glare issues? Seems sorta flimsy, any issues in the wind?

Well, I haven't been able to get out yet for crows this season. However, I did get to Saskatoon Canada for a week long waterfowl hunting trip in October. The outfitter compiled a 10 min video of our week. I wanted to ask before posting if it would be OK to post link (Youtube). I'll post if there's positive r...

A couple more "Metro Cam" videos.

I apologize in advance for the shakiness, this time, the camera was mounted on my head, instead of on the gun, so there is alot more motion as I scan for targets. I also admit to failing miserably as a hunter... in the first video, you may notice that I only have 1 shell in a gun that holds 5 when the crows arr...

I stayed up and watch the Bama/LSU game until about midnight and got up at 3:00 AM to go to the pecan orchard. I get there and recognize it instantly. I shot it about 1...

Thought this only applied to Deer hunters here in Alabama, not Crow hunters but I was wrong. Set up this A.M. on a orchard things started slow and crows were call shy, suspected a local had been after them to much. After we had killed maybe 15 started hearing shots in the distance where other smaller grov...

I know this is not crow related, but as a proud dad I had to share it here. My son is also the reason I got into making crow calls. At around 2 years old he got my one good crow call and chewed up the mouth piece. After buying a number of calls that I didn't like I decided to try and make my own. That was many calls ag...
