sisde by side/double barrel questions
(Preview)
I have never owned a double barrel shotgun. So I need assistance on choosing. The last few years I have been doing much more shooting with the shotgun, crows, ducks, geese, skeet and sporting clays. At the range, I see lots of doubles, especiallyover/unders which I have no interest in. What I have int...

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...

Black Friday. The day after Thanksgiving.
(Preview)
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.
(Preview)
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.

Photos Of Live Crows!

I am doing a little research and was wandering if anyone has every tried to record their own REAL crow sounds? I was checking on the needed equipment and it seems the only things needed are a directional or parabolic microphone and a recording device. I have lots of friends in the music field and I don't...

Kansas opening day
(Preview)
Just to show everyone that not everyone in Kansas can shoot like Bob, lol. I hunted a little last year but nothing serious so this was my first so to say serious hunt. 15 isn't many but it is a start and I feel like I learned a lot. I can not seem to find a big concentration of birds so I just run and gun. As the day...

It was a beautiful day to be out in God's creation enjoying the sunrise. We killed a total of 48. We picked up the few that landed in the newly planted w...

Great Day today
(Preview)
After leaving work a little late today (12:15) I was totally ambivalent about going crow hunting. I couldn't go yesterday because I had an appointment for a physical and the day before I never got a shot. I checked out two spots without seeing a crow and almost didn't go to this place. When I pulled in...

crows and dogs
(Preview)
Though they get little or nothing in the way of work on my excursions, I like to take my dogs along when I make my feeble attempts at crow hunting. I'd like to ask the hunters who actually experience success if dogs running out to retrieve the fallen adversely affects the shoot? Thanks in advance. Chuck ...
