I have been aching to eliminate those black devils. I always see Heckle and Jeckle traveling in pairs and cant wait to have at em. My caller has a few crow sounds that need to be tested out :P
Bullets are pretty worthless. All they do is hang around waiting to get loaded.

I'm excited about going out as well.Posted Image The first Saturday in December is fast approaching. We had a rather large West Nile kill rate around me.Posted Image But I understand from talking to several friends that they've seen good numbers of crows. I've got four crow calls on my FoxPro that work very well as a group to switch between. The calls I have are the 270 - Crow Fight, 271 - Crow Party, 277 - Crow & Owl and 279 - Struggling Crow. Plus I may drag along the old mouth calls so that I don't forget how to use them. Plus mouth calls used in concert with the FoxPro can add a bit of excitement to the chaos that is crow calling.Posted Image

thats one thing I can realy call in.with out a crow call! tons of them around here.
You can hop but you can't hide. Yahi Bowmen. Its not how far you can shoot but how close to the game you get when you shoot. Sights we don't need any sights. Why waist time reloading when I can be making arrows.

Hey Tim, send some of those crows up my way we need some more! Or invite me down to help you shoot yours. I'll bring my FoxPro Killer Caller. When cleaning my stalls (storage space) recently, I discovered almost 2000 shotgun shells that need emptying. :P

You could count me in on that as well if you have room. I haven't shot crows since I was in high school. There is always fast and furious action when they respond to the owl and calling.db

Do you eat Crow?

There are some good recipes for crow on Crow Busters. We ate some of the ones we shot last season. They weren't bad either, but you can put enough seasoning on to eat just about anything.
