I'm new to crow hunting. I'm looking to purchase a caller by the end of the month. Does anyone have any experience with FoxPro? I'm looking at either the Wildfire2 or the Fire Storm models. Is there any benefit from the dual speakers on the Fire Storm? Is anyone out there currently using either of these c...

Ide like to just throw out what im doing to yall just to see if there is something I should change or i...

I was at ALDI today (basically a discount grocery store for those of you who have never heard of it) and found a 4 to 13 foot extendable paint pole for $7.99. They were selling it as a telescopic broom by the brand GardenLine with two broom heads and a swivel attachment for changing the angle of the broom by...

I started putting on dove hunts at my house 3 years ago. This past September we harvested over 1600 dove in four hunts. Now we are gaining a decent number of local dove population due to the increased habitat I have provided for them. With doves comes hawks of course. They are huge red tail hawks, some as...

http://jackiefreemanphotography.com/goshawk.htm For those of you who don't know what at least a female goshawk looks like. The males are smaller (not by much) and have blue/gray on their backs and a dark blue "cap" and light gray thinly barred underneath. I have never seen them toge...

There is much talk about cammo shotgun finishes but I personally don't much care for the look of cammo on a shotgun. Mine are mostly blued steel and walnut as I guess I'm a bit of a "traditionalist" and enjoy shooting some vintage guns. Further, I don't feel these to affect my crow shooting ab...

My first crow hunt was really fun and unique.

It was only 6 degrees out when I left at noontime. We have almost 2 feet of snow, so I grabbed snowshoes, shotgun and my Foxpro. Wind was blowing very hard out of the northwest. As I was walking in, I came across 2 sets of coyote tracks heading into the wind. I followed a little ways and then setup. Facing t...

What kind of paint do you use to paint your decoys? Decoys, the most "looked-at" by crows of any equipment we use, is as important as anything in our accessories inventory. Guns, shells, boots, crow calls, clothing, etc. are used while hunting, but hopefully not seen by crows. Decoys are...

So being afflicted with crow hunting I am always looking for a edge.

While there is no substitute for brushing in a blind with natural materials where the blind is actually set up, I have tried to get a jump on it and zip-tied some of my favorite material from the yard -- my wife's big grass plant! 1. This stuff is very light weight, 2. I get new material every year, 3. I prun...

I was skeptical after reading the negative things about layout blinds on the site for years. I bought one last year for a waterfowl trip and decided to try it in a huge cornfield full of migrators. These birds were not gonna be here long because of the crazy weather and temps in the teens. This cornfiled i...

Last year I read where someone used a Halloween bat that flaps it's wings as a decoy to put against a plastic owl decoy to make it look like the owl captured a crow and the crow was in need help. What a good idea! So I just ordered 2 off ebay. For you who use this how do u attach it to the owl? Any other setup where u...
