My family did the anual Christmas eve thing at my sisters house. Good food, lots of laughs and good times. My niece had brought home a friend of hers, this young man was from New Zealand. 19 years old and very respectful, manerly and basically raised right. I started right off the bat asking him about hu...

Here is what my brother and I came up with. The upper hook is for the hoop. The middle "U" is for my guns to prop against. And the bottom bar is to stand on and drive in the ground. My hoop is a 12 ft section of pipe with burlap 54" tall.

Anyone know where to order full body decoys in Canada? I am having a hard time trying to find more decoys due to crow hunting is not a very popular thing around here. The big stores do get some but maybe a dozen at a time and the first person looking buys the whole lot. Thanks...Steve

After a morning in the deer stand with no luck I thought it would be fun to try to call in a few Crows. He smoked the 1st one that came over. He is hooked for life now.

Due to work and school, this was my first time out this season for crows and it was a learning experience (as most hunts are). I decided to go to a state park that allowed crow hunting which was about an hour from my home. I had been there before, but wanted to try another location where I had never been. I got...

At our farm in Mississippi we are seeing more and more crows eating the corn on the ground around our deer feeders. I was wondering if anyone has ever built a platform and put corn on it to attract crows? It would have to be high enough to keep the deer off of it. Would love to train the crows in the area to...

Hi boys, Last Thursday, while visiting my ancestral home along the Wabash River in Indiana, I met up with Big Honkers for a little afternoon crow shoot.
