Awesome day !!!
(Preview)
It's been awhile since I visited or posted. Been busy on a sheep farm that wants the coyote population reduced. Wiley things won't give me a clean shot. Seen a pure black one twice. It was huge. The tracks in the snow match those of my friends lab that weights 88 lbs. Paw print as big and as deep in the snow. ....

Well one day he was having an early dinner at this Japanese steak house and he was with his friend the game warden. The warden and my father didn't h...

Contact info for Mincey call?

I just got a Mincey call from Crowmart and am having problems with it locking up on me. I would like to talk to Jack to see if I am doing anything wrong with it. I cant put my teeth anywhere past the tip (and I mean tip,not even to the cut out groove) or the thing locks up more. I like the call but need to figure out...

Shot my first sporting clays today
(Preview)
I went out to our local WMA today and shot my first round of sporting clays. It is a really nice facility. They had golf cart to use or you could use their bag carts. There were 12 stations with some easy and some not so much. There was one crossing shot that was a ways out there. I don't think I ever touched one...

65 yard pattern test - 6 vs. 7.5

Well we were curious too. Remember the old adage more is always better? Seems to not always work that way with shotguns. Which shot size runs out of pattern density as range extends 6's or 7.5's? Logic would say the load with far fewer pellets, testing proved something different. The following t...

They're Starting to Catch On!!

Went out this morning without a whole lot of anticipation, the area I've been hunting was absolutely void of crows yesterday afternoon when I went out to scout the area. I'm pretty sure most of the migraters have moved further to the north, but ya know ya can't kill anything if you don't go out.. I was fai...

Rain - better the day before or the day after
(Preview)
As many veterans are aware crows are not as active on rainy days. Many animals have a sense of changing weather and react to it. What is your experience, are they moving more before a rainy day or more the day after the rain, or both.

A shoot like October today (pics)

A great but unexpected shoot today. We hunted in nearby Maine starting in the early morning with a pair of 10ga's. The spring migration was on and we witnessed many very high north bound birds strung out and showing no interest. As the morning wore on we got all the shooting we could handle and we wer...

Shoot a paper 4 times. Fold it in half then fold it in half again. When it is opened it would have 4 quarters. Count all strikes in one section and you would...
