My Son and a good friend and I got to hunt together and had a good hunt, as M12 said " It's nice when the planets line up".

Had a good time Saturday with the Grandson, hunted a 20 acre pecan orchard that Hurricane Opal knocked a lot of trees down several years ago. Trees are tall and mature, did not have any choice but to set up in very open area. Started off light fog and then clear and hot. Crows came in and we could not hit the s...

My crow hunting buddy Brian and I hunted yesterday morning. We went to a big pecan orchard surrounded by crop fields. This year the farmer planted peanuts. The farmer started rolling them up a couple of weeks ago but had to stop until we get some rain. The ground was like concrete. Yesterday's weathe...

Been trying to respond to a farmer's request to come shoot the crows in his corn field. Rain has cancelled 3 previous attempts but I got out this morning! Farmer called 3 weeks ago, said he had about 30-40 crows using his field. That number is certainly sufficient to get me up in the morning but this morni...

Really wet fall up here. Lots of crops will go unharvested this fall making for a smorgasbord of food choices for the crows.
