(Preview)
So my buddy has several bait stations for pest control. He has shoot 2 crows out of his back yard. He claims that the crows will not and have not landed in his backyard to get corn, dead birds, seats, pecans, peanuts or any other bait he puts out there and they fly over his house every day.

After much debate and agonizing over where we should set up we had a really nice shoot. Killed 130 before noon. That put us up to 1030 for the young season. Noah, Skeetshooter, and I all shot very well. Noah killed one around 40 yards. Good stuff for a 9 year old with a 20 Ga. Skeet took this pic of Noah and me...

They are grouping up into bunches of 25 or so then leaving for other areas close by. All this is taking place as the birds are coming of the roost. Anyone ever seen this? We will be sh...

I have been hunting crows for a couple of years now but have never spent much time scouting. We just show up at the place we will be hunting, pick the most likely looking place to shoot and away we go. We have been successful with this technique as there are a few birds in the areas we hunt. We have recently a...

Tornados and crows

My kill tally is way down from last year because of a limited number of crows in our area. Parts of the general area that I hunt in were devastated by tornados this past April; I mean scattered devastation that you cannot believe across the entire region. Our area had a poor early dove season this Septe...

I had been using a diffuser choke but really started on a roll after going to the IC. Got 3 doubles and then went home. Would have done much better if I would have had the set...
