Just curious if anyone is noticing a decline in the number of birds? I have hunted 3 times this season at locations that Jerry Tomlin would take my group. We would routinely shoot well over 50 birds and usually see many many more. This season I have not seen nearly the number of birds we have seen in the...

I decided to make a quick trip to an area I had scouted in the past. So Friday we loaded up and headed out. We spent most of the the day scouting and watching it rain. I had my eye on a spot that I figured would produce a good hunt but I hadn’t been able to gain permission in past trips to the area. This time I g...

I know this will create "controversy" but I don't care-I speak from experience regarding this area. Every 5 to ten years crows change their pattern. On the border I saw a gradual decline of crows until it's not worth going anymore. There were not less crows moving through but they changed their patte...

Bert Popowski said " the amount of crows a man kills over the course of his lifetime is only limited to the amount of time he is willing to devote to the sport " We hunted 24 days this season and shot 4,613 crows for an average of 192 crows per hunt. In 46 seasons there have been 258,722 crows shot in my compa...

Hey all, Our first shoot of the new year was Tue. 7 Jan. in uncommonly mild weather for this time of year. 30 degrees and calm at dawn, warming to just above 40. West wind picked up to about 10 mph. Although some breeze early would've helped, it was a wonderful day to be hunting. Early on it was apparent we...

For all of you who shoot crop damaging crows, it is time to send in your annual form. The due date is January 31st. The from(s) I use are: FWS Form 3-202-21-2143 or 50 CFR 21.43 For safety sake as our hunting regulation book is vague and/or contradictory, I keep a copy of my last year's annual report in...

Hello fellow Crow Busters, I have been working tirelessly with all my sounds in Audacity. Half of the sounds come out of my FOXPRO great and the other sounds are just awful no matter what I do with the file. Is there anyone who has any experience with working with these sounds with Audacity to get them to b...

Newbie question: If I call in a crow or crows and I shoot and miss or they see me will they be educated enough to fall for my call the next time? What if I move to a new setup 2 or 3 miles away? Would they still know it is a place they do not want to be? Should I use a different type of call at each new site? -- Edited...

I have no great numbers of crows killed to post about today. We killed 17, I thin? plus or minus a bird or two. I tried getting some footage with my phone and that proved as difficult as calling in smart crows. I got a couple good kill shots on https://youtu.be/rsXm29uOCDk

Hi guys, We spent Sunday 22 Dec. scouting for a possible hunt on the 23rd. The expected number of crows were present, but with warm weather and no snow they scattered everywhere. We determined we could get some good shooting on the flight out, but all bets were off after that. They seemed most concentr...

My last post was about a dove hunt that resulted in finding a farmer wanting to get rid of some crows in one of his fields. I scoped out the field, and found crows but not in large numbers. The organizer of the dove hunt was a friend who had never hunted crows, so I asked him to join me. I told him we might get 20 c...
