As they say, a picture is worth a thousand words... and this one says at least that much! Please meet my oldest grandson Reade Daniel, age 14, posing with full grin behind his first two KIA'd crows taken on opening day (last Saturday) of dove season here in N.C. I remember well my first crow hunt. I w...

A bit of low key backyard airgun practice with the master this morning. Heard a crow back in the bush so by instinct I pressed the foxpro into service and it turned out to be a crow shoot. In short order we had several dozen twisting and turning looking for the fight. One happened to land on an overhead br...

Picked up a couple boxes of the above 12 gauge shells to try on crows just for giggles. Box claims the one ounce payload of 7 1/2's have a muzzel velocity of 1330 fps. Shot a few crows this morning with these shells and found them to really pack a punch , on the crows and my shoulder as they are quite "s...

I went goose hunting with 3 friends over the weekend here in Northern Maine. We saw approximately 300 geese, but we couldn't get them to commit to the decoys. We did manage to kill 2 geese and they were both banded. Kev <><

Labor day, last year, the wife took our kids and some of their friends swimming at the lake. I wanted to go but had some work to finish up. My youngest son's best friend Jordan had stayed the weekend with us; he drowned while swimming with them. Wendy dove and dove for him, but the water was too murky for h...

I'm happy to report that CrowMart is now carrying the Boondocker Flocker Crow Decoys. The detail and the black flocking look great.
