Hi Stuka,

For me, dead calm and mid 70's is the ultimate.  That way our sound carries 360 degrees and we are very comfortable in our head to toe camo.

By the way, I think Skip spent some time in Stuka's at some point in his career.  He can share details! 

Regards,

The days I like to go is when the weather is in the 45 degree to 55 degree range. This way the birds don't become lethargic from the heat and don't move. I also like some breeze of 5 to 10, 5 to 15 or 10 to 20 mph. Cloudy days are great but sunshine will work just as well if your in the right spot. There is no one way to hunt crows, you just have to find out what works for you the best and that means plenty of hunting.

Crows are fair weather upland birds in my opinion. Light overcast makes for less glare and such and targets stand out well against a white sky but sunny days are good for the soul. With this said I have shot crows in all types of weather from 20 below winter conditions to blistering hot summer days. Further a steady wind keeps the crows coming in true and from one direction.

Its funny how folks like different conditions in different parts of the country.

I personally hate fog, stay in bed.

I like enough breeze to give the birds a consistent & predictable approach to the blind, clouds, and cooler temps.

There are some areas I like a few inches of snow on the ground.

Overall, as long as its not raining and the fog stays away, I'll hunt.
