I am getting pretty fired up for Crow Season! I figure it will give me a good opportunity to scout for turkey as well. I remember seeing a TON of turkeys last year while I was out hunting crow last year. I just gained permission to hunt a field that is holding 15+ crows every morning so I figure I should get at least 1 or 2 of them on opening morning. Just need to get in there this afternoon to build a blind and get everything ready. Time to get the trusty shotgun out and start dropping some nasty crow!

I cant wait to just get outdoors and hunt again!!!!  Gonna be out early Saturday morning!!! I know what you mean about finding turkeys while crow hunting...Last year I was hunting with a good friend of mine along the Merrimack river and we were so distracted by all the gobbling around us we probably missed alot of ops on crows!!! ;D |

A few more days and it will be here  |

In the spirit of generosity and sharing I will be much more specific than thunderchicken was. This weekend I will be in the middle of "my" cornfield dug down into the middle of a bovine manure pile smelling the sweet gentle odor of post digested silage and hopefully gunpowder. |

maxus don't let TC confuse ya...he meant he knows that "sweet gentle odor of post digested silage" ;D A little OT from crow hunting but I miss the smells of a working farm. Sound gross but it's probalby from growing up and being around farms most of my life. I will admit it though, a few of those farm smells I'm talking about are and can be a little bit overwhelming sometimes I use to love bow hunting this one stand location in MD that was downwind of a huge dairy farm. Mid October hunts on a crisp chilly morning, the smell of the farm rolling through the creek bottom and the pre-rut activity of sparing with a little chasing going on around ya...just one of those hunting moments you never forget |
