[Shoot-it]

After sometime at my range shooting rifles a friend pulled out his new wildfire from fox pro and played some crow sounds man they came in hard and by the hundreds.I am impressed with that caller it's the same size of the spitefire but is louder and sounds better it seems.Can't wait tell season to start I have a robo crow decoy just need a few decoys and i am set.

Crows can be fun!

I see tons of crows all the time but they're mostly in the city. When I'm out hunting I think I only see Ravens and not crows. I hear they're very smart.

I freagin' hate crows! I want to go hunt them!!!

My unsolicited advice? Get at least TWO decoys. Making them look like they're about to fight really seems to bring them in....I stand them angled towards each other about 3 yards apart. Just make sure they are also facing AWAY from where the crows will approach, because crows are smart and if they see the decoys are facing them they wonder why they don't react at all.

With my air rifle, I wait for them to land, and blast them. It's really fun, but shotgun is even better. Wash, Rinse, Repeat. They will come in a few times before they realize that a few are getting shot each time. Then, I'll wait to give them some rest, and do it again.

Forgot to mention the call. Cheap big 5 wood call works good. My e-caller doesn't work so well, but that's just because I don't have good sounds for crows on it.

My small property used to have crows all the time. After a couple years of shooting them, they no longer return. Smart birds....either that or there are no more food out there for them to eat. Now the city has a problem though. There are just thousands of them in a nearby area and they are very noisy!
