Just a reminder
(Preview)
We are going into the 2012/13 N. American crow migration and I wanted to remind you guys of the "Link Dump" forum located further down the home page. This is a great time to sharpen your hand calling skills, and the links have many great sounds to listen to, mimic, or put on your eCaller. Knoc...

2012 A-Team totals
(Preview)
The A-Team just gets better and better with age. I use to ask one of my managers at work how things were going in his department and he always replied "like a well oiled machine". This is what the A-Team is all about. Put us in crows and we will produce! I am proud to say these guys are my close f...

Early Pattern Developing for upcoming season
(Preview)
Every night at about 7:30 for the last two weeks I have noticed a flock of crows building in numbers from feeding to roost over my house. My blood pressure is going up as their numbers increase. All nesting is over now and the new fledglings are joining their parents in their journey to everywhere. Lo...

Who takes the shot?
(Preview)
Ok, question for you.... when you hunt in pairs or a group, and a bird comes into range....is it a free for all, or do you take turns? Like many hunters I got into crow hunting to extend my hunting season..and since you hunt them very similarly to ducks I was hooked when I dropped my first one. What I don't li...

Lethality of a shotgun - (It's heresy to Bob A.)
(Preview)
It's about ducks but I believe all living things are are killed in the same manner. It contradicts a long held theory that shock to the central nervous system without a traumatic wound to an organ will kill. I posted this on the other site and it was deleted shortly after by Bob. Apparently discussio...

Proper Attire for the Occasion
(Preview)
We talk alot about concealment in the crow woods. Blending in for the proper hide to me is the most improtant element of crow hunting. They usually do not shy away from what they do not see. This past season my good friend Skip took this picture of me standing in a pine plantation. Even though there ar...

New Guy..

Hello everyone,
being new to this site I'd like to introduce myself. I am 38 years old and have been hunting for the last 26 years. First as a kid with my dad, on my 18th birthday I got my own license. Having said that, I am relatively new to hunting crows with decoys. Last year was my first season hunting w...

The shot shell of choice for crows
(Preview)
This subject is one that has many different opinions. I have read time and time again that bigger is better. This is not the case. I was having a conversation the other day with a buddy that said he knew a guy that was using 3.5" #6 loads in a 10 gauge shotgun to shoot crows and his reasoning was that...

Did you see the balls on that crow!
(Preview)
I witnessed something today that goes against everything I've heard about how crows behave around birds of prey. While at the neighborhood pond fishing for panfish I was watching two crows off in the distance fly toward me from left to right. As the crows crossed the 2 acre pond side by side they elivat...

Last Day In NC
(Preview)
The North Carolina season has come to an end. Taking the last day of the season off of work is like taking your birthday off, just feels like the right thing to do. We really did not have a good place to go, so we decided to hunt a few spots that we had hunted earlier in the season. Even though we had let thes...

Are You Really Hidden?

Over the last few years I have read, listened to people talk, viewed other web sites and observed people commenting on hunting shy birds and how they are trying to hunt in general. Most recently I was viewing another site and this guy was describing how he was set up in a field covered in tall grass tryin...

The group was limited today again by uncontrollable events (Funeral) so my hunting partner and I thought we would travel South to "pig farm country" to see what was cooking down there. We have not hunted this area in a couple of years because it seems that the birds only show up there afte...

Crow hunting here in Maine is starting on the 7th and I can't seem to become comfortable with my calling. I've been practicing but then I would see where two different guys say they are using the "comeback call" or something and each guy sounds completely different. So each guy has differen...

Skip is one of the co-founders of the A-Team and Chris is our youngest member. Skip if anybody follows crow hunting can get it done on both ends, Calling and...

After getting home Friday afternoon I was beat to say the least. A two hour round trip drive and a hard day of hunting. About 7:00 the phone rings and its one of my other A-Team partners. He said how about in the morning and I said "WHAT". Coming off my cold it would be tough. He said we have...

Got a call from one of the A-Team members last Wednesday and he said he could not go on Saturday but how about Friday. He said he found a flock feeding in a peanut field and he had gained permission to hunt there. I was coming off of a bad cold and this was just what I needed to get me over the hump. I picked my...

Innocent Until Proven Guilty

I have to be the only crow hunter in history to have been pulled out of the woods from a run and gun stand to answer to a Highway Patrolman. True story: The A-Team was in a county that we were not familar with the local highway laws and we had spotted a flock of crows feeding in a nearby field that we could pul...

Friday was the day all crow hunters live for, light winds with overcast skies and 50 for a high temp. The birds cou...

Your video's are cool and the gilly suit seems to work. We took a guy a few years ago who wore a gilly suit and after three run and gun stands in our southern briars he left half of it in the woods so tangled he literally had to be cut out. A North and West thing for sure. I give you an "A" for putting...
