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...

First time poster: Just got into crow hunting about a month ago. Here in TN we can only hunt Fri., Sat, Sun. Great hunt this morning, set up the decoys in a field by between two barns and an old wet weather pond with some rock bluffs and hardwoods across the field about 1/2 a mile and the Cumberland River at o...

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

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.

I just got back from out of town today and had a very productive crow hunt. The first day all I did was scout from sunup to sunset. The next day I shot 161 crows from 7:30a.m. - 9:30a.m. then went out that afternoon and shot 340 crows from 2p.m. - 5:30p.m. I used 546 traploads for the job, and the total for the d...

This morning I noticed my "favorite" for this site would not work. I Googled Crowbusters.com and that link will not work. I clicked on the forum has changed link on Google and got in. What is going on?

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...

I haven't been hunting much but scouting more. I located a staging area yesterday,several hundred birds. Lets just say They picked the safest place in the world to roost.... I followed the flyway and did a set today at around 2pm. I was 8 miles north of the roost and 1 mile west of the main flyway. I am cau...

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...

Killed 186 between 2 PM and 5:30. Had a Redtail kill a walker then get mobbed by about 10 crows. He lead them straight to us. Good teamwork. Sorry for the lack of pics.

Here is a combination of great old action photos from the 1970's to the 1980's plus some action photos from Argentina on some dove hunts. Some goose hunting photos as well. These photos capture the feeling of being out there. Bob A.

I took my oldest daughter this morning for a little outing. She shot 8. She did very well considering last year we hunted all season and she only killed one. 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...

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...

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 ...

I had an interesting morning for my first time out. Fog, Rain and Wind. But I did manage to bag one. Not bad for lacking camo, using home made silhouettes and armed with just a hand call. -- Edited by Aries on Friday 4th of November 2011 11:41:13 PM

One day and a wake up! As the old saying goes. Can't hardly wait. We have lots of new places to hunt and we are seeing lots of large groups of crows. We are planning a scouting trip tomorrow afternoon to make the final decision for the season opener. That should be a fun drive around the countryside. I had 3...

Just wondering on average how many decoys everyone uses on a hunt. We typically hunt over 3-5 dozen decoys. At times I wonder if we have to many decoys and not enough realistic motion in the spread. Thinking about dropping down to 1-2 dozen decoys and a few flappers. What are yall's opinions?
