Well my first bowhunt was unsuccessful, I was out in the yard practicing and there was a few crows squawking in the trees. So I set up the fox pro in my yard by my target and let them have it. Next thing I know the yard is full of squawking crows but none would land so I had the sand hill as a back stop.:-D

Get some french fries from Macdonalds, save the bag and place it in a good shooting spot. Spread a few fries around the bag and leave a bunch inside. Place a good sized rock in the bag to keep the crows from shaking it out. Let them have a few fries to build their confidence. Only shoot when the crow's head is inside the bag, as they are notorious "string-jumpers".
You will only get one chance at a flock.

Remember the turkey hunter's motto.
shoot'em high, watch'em die,
shoot'em low, watch'em go".

Like grizzlies, break down their shoulders.


We will expect a "grip'n grin" pic on here soon.

Why do you think that I took the name Bow "Walker" on here? I used to just take the darned thing out for a walk. :evil:

Used to, that is.:wink:
