I didn't have much time today so right at sundown I zipped out into a field and blasted crow fight on my FX3 e-caller and had 1 single lone crow come barreling in right at me squawking the whole way, I waited till I saw the blacks of his eyes and whopped him in the kisser with some 12 gauge nighty night !....al...

When you high-numbers guys have a big shoot underway, what do you do about the "walkers", during and afterwards? Best way to dispatch? Send a PM if the info is "classified".

Just getting back into small game hunting after being away from it since the mid-'70s. There aren't huge amounts of crows (that I have seen) in my area of Ct but the season is 4 months long and I have a new Foxpro Wilfire on its way and I intend to get after the crows and coyotes. Not much other small game to...

10gacrowshooter and I had our second best one day team total today as crows have arrived in our area in force. We hunted from legal shooting time until 11AM with our Parker 10ga double guns. At that point our supply of short ten ammo was exhausted and we went back to our trucks to switch over to a pair of sm...

Well, after three days of none stop heavy rain ( that on top of last weeks which saw me bogged down it a field Monday) it was supposed to be dry from 05:00 this morning. So, got up at 05:00, and it continues to rain until 08:15. The pigeons and crows started arriving at 07:45 so I've missed the morning flight...

Just got a call from the Mississippi Department Of Wildlife, Fisheries, and Parks and it's go time. We had applied for a deprivation permit and all was going well till someone realized crows are covered under the Migratory act. At that point they had to punt to the USDA. After checking with them, the wi...

Zeddicus: For placing sentinel decoys way up, I've been thinking of using fiberglass sectional poles or telescoping poles. The one you show on your Some Random Pics from Germany and Ireland thread is quite nice. What is its construction? After a quick search or two on the Internet, I haven't found an...

After getting back Saturday from our first shoot of the season with my dad, my mom took me out to have a look at an old magnolia tree in their yard...

We shot a peacan orchard this morning and picked up 45.. Only two made it to the woods that will probably not make it thru the night.. Only had a few call shy birds and most decoyed well..

Hi boys, On Friday, Texas Matt and I made a first time visit to a new property he obtained that requested our free crow control services. We dropped 32 crows on this morning and at 1:30 in the afternoon, just before leaving we tried our fourth and final varmint calling stand of the day. The first 3 were...

I shot a pecan orchard last weekend and killed 60 crows in horrible fog. The farmer called this week and said I didn't make a dent. I was thinking about going and busting them again in the morning. Is that too soon? If I go, I plan on setting up in the other end of the orchard. It has I guess about 75 trees in it...

Redditch · Redditch

So, set up on a new field this morning in the dark, set the decoys up to the right, of me, meaning I should have the farm house on the left, and a clear field of fire to the front, right, and rear.

Stupid high wind this morning, pushing 50kph (30 mph). Crows didn't seem to move much, just lots soaring and fun & frolic a mile north along a tree line. They just seemed to stay put. Managed to put the hammer on 12 with one double though. The first bird of the double went down squalling so I went over t...

We set up Sunday evening and tried to follow as much of the advice you guys offered as we could. Wound up killing 5 (should have been 8 or 9 with better shooting; less choke next time!). Not big numbers but we're hunting a group of about 100 birds. They're local "Southern" birds that have be...

I decided to visit several of my farms this year and get some hides built prior to season. My favorite place to hunt has a 200 acre bottom in it. I pulled up to the farmers place and he was glad to see I was after his crows. I notice that he had'nt gotten his corn out. I told him I was out building hides but would...

Here you can see the difference in size between a NORMAL sized Jackdaw and a MEDIUM sized Grey and a MEDIUM sized Carrion. You can appreciate that these two species are very difficult to kill, especially once they get to this size and larger. Then you can hit them with 7.5 and they just shrug it off if at...
