Kill the scout?

What are your thoughts on taking the scout? I've had great results and bad results 1) Took the scout and all the troops attacked and made for a great day. Sometimes I think it was because they saw the scout fall. Made things crazy 2) Took the scout, and all the troops laid back in the trees acting call sma...

Since I became addicted to crow hunting more than two years ago, I have never had an absolutely “dry” morning—that is, not a single crow came to check out my decoys in response to the Spitfire’s calls—until today. Did everything right. I got out and in position one hour before sunrise. Had the best camo...

Sam's first crow

No elaborate stories today. I had the pleasure of taking my church friend's son, Sam, on his first crow hunt today. We had previously hunted turkey this spring, but it was too late in the season to get one. We'll take care of that during the fall season. However, today, a couple of bandits obliged us and h...

Hawk Call Sounds, with Crow

This year's portable blind idea

Between seasons I’ve been on YouTube watching others down vast amounts of crows. Yeah, I realize it’s all editing—you know, one year on a five minute video, but I’m still envious. One guy’s blind caught my eye--he was inside a completely camouflage net-covered blind and at the last second would reac...

Upgraded owl/hawk stand
(Preview)
Like many of you I use my hawk and owl decoys occasionally and with some occasional success. I have never had a satisfactory stand for them—only a piece of re-bar with an extension PVC pipe. It worked, but the decoys moved around with the wind. The other day I was thinking of how to make a better decoy stan...

Would this decoy setup work?

I have an owl decoy and thought about tying a dead crow to the bottom to make it look like the owl killed a crow, seems like it would make them mad, has anybody tried this?
