Property Lines
(Preview)
On a early hunt this year we found a field with a few hundred crows in it with a cell tower on the property line between the woods and the field they were using. We opted to use the cell tower right-of-way to access the woods to intercept the birds. When we came out we had a surprise on our windshield. Not o...

Hawk helps the hunt
(Preview)
This is a first for me in all my years of crow hunting. On Saturday one of our members in the group shot the first crow that came in and he flew about 200 yards out over a large field and then flatlined, stone dead. We could not see exactly where he went down because we where a ways back in the woods, but knew...

Each year we hunt at about 5 different landfills and at every one we go to there are the smaller rain crows hanging out there at least three to one of the common crows. Why the difference? Anybody have an opinion?

How many crows make a really good shoot?
(Preview)
Over on the "other" crow hunting site one rather smug poster summised that 90 crows down on a hunt is a good solo hunt but not a good total for 2 or more. It makes me laugh because from what I read 100+ bird days are not the norm and are celebrated by the majority of crow hunters over there. So wha...

E-caller battery life
(Preview)
I am curious, how long with your e-caller run on a charge and what kind of caller is it? One of the principal reasons I have stuck with the J/S cassette callers is their long battery life and rechargable sealed lead acid battery system. Although the SLA battery is the majority of the unit's weight, it p...

Poachers again :-(

Well, after poachers running round on a quad last night, and leaving some gates open, whereupon sheep got out again, the farmer has said next time hold Henk, block the lane, call plod, and have them done for armed trespass. That means they will lose their FAC, their guns, their quad, and will probably b...
