Tornados and crows
(Preview)
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...

first hunt of season Ga
(Preview)
Well, I could not get anyone to go with so I had to kill 18 by myself. I would have done much better had I switched to IC choke to start with. 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...

Retail stores love Black Friday, if they have one. This conotation implies that this day is their best day of sales, and profit, of the year. In business, "in the black" means profitable. It will be interesting if you dudes will post how many crows you killed on your best "black friday...

Dead Crows.

Had a really nice morning. We started off shooting well and continued till the wind picked up. I moved closer to my partner and it was on again. We worked hard trying to break a 100 but finally called it a day at 11:00 AM with 95. The land owner was very happy. This is a pic of the setup after we cleaned up. The...

Any suggestions for anything special in the way of collapsible poles for hanging up decoys? I know about the big box stores with their painter poles and such, but I'd like something better. Thanks Chuck

How to scare crows away?
(Preview)
Have a few crows that are annoyingly loud around the neighborhood. Wondering if there is a sound that I can play through the car or house speakers to scare them away. No guns allowed for foreigners, inside city limits, no slingshots, air rifles, and no backstop for rocks.
