The first couple of photos with the snow cover were taken after I slipped on the ice and didn't even know I had a broken rib until I started to stiffen up the next day. This was last month, it's 3 degrees below zero in Hutchinson right now, forget it, I'm throwing another log on the fire!
Hey come on now BH, I get kind of touchy when you talk about me and dirt: the reason is because the older I get the closer I get to being planted 6 feet under "in the dirt" lol.
I got the truck last june, had it 7 months now. Since I put a lot of miles on them, 18,000 miles a crow season now, I trade them every two years. Back in the old days I could buy a truck two years old and keep it for 10 to 12 years, just run the tires off of it. But in those days it was all local hunting, I never ventured more than 45 miles from my home.

I just got an electronic caller, and started doing searches on coyote and crow hunting and came across your site. Seems a lot of people out there refer to your site as the place to find answers for crow hunting. It appears they are all correct!!
I was thinking of throwing a weight with fishing line tied to it over a high branch and then pulling the decoy up high and tying the line off, but then if there was any wind, it would twist around and not be sitting on a branch.
I cant tell from your pics...how are they secured to the tree? Some kind of clip?
Oh OK, I was just curious . I was just wondering if you had Hemlock trees down there. Up here we do, as well as White Cedar, Fir, Spruce, Larch, and several species of Pine.

Well, I hope you get to 200,000 before the dirt gets ya.
Thanks for the pics and glad the ribs are feeling better.
At first I thought you were talking about miles on your truck...and I thought that didn't seem all that high....but.......then I realized you meant CROWS! HOLY COW!
Seriously, you must be the top Crow-Grinder in history! That is a LOT of crows. I'm surprised there are any left for the rest of us. HAHA!
I've made my own luck in the respect that as a young guy I knew what I wanted to do at a young age. I flat picked up and moved from the east coast to Kansas back in 1974 just for the crows! In short, I moved to where the birds were, it was the best move I ever made!
I have some very good memories of past shoots over the last 37 years out here.
Tomorrow the head sports writer from the Kansas City Star is coming to Hutchinson to interview me about the crow hunting over the years. He wants to take some pictures of my crow museum.
