CROW HUNTING

**PBArcher8** · December 15th, 2008, 08:59 AM

Hey all,
I've recently been hunting crows after church on sunday(since thats the only thing I can hunt), and I have soon discovered they catch on very quickly. Yesterday we shot two right off the bat but then they started to fly VERY high and we never got much shooting after that. Does anybody have any suggestions of how to keep them flying lower or other tips so I don't educate the whole flock?

Thanks for anything

I would find multiple spots and change up daily. Change the volume and recording of your calling.Decoys, decoy's, decoys. Never shoot the first birds into the set, live decoys provided by nature are best, more birds will come.

Thats probably the best advice you can get. If you just wound one, don't kill him right away, they go nuts over a wounded one. Also I like the crow in destress tape or call, and you could try baiting the area too, I've heard dog food works well.

Upstate, we just have to walk through the woods, stop, wait, shoot.
Repeat as needed.

BTW .22WMR, turns crows inside-out

When i lived in New York , i used to like to hunt them , but after awhile they would stake out my yard and go crazy on me with noise and so on , real upset for something, when i moved to Pennsylvania , thay dont come near my property, they avoid my property like the plague, they are on all my neighbors property but they dont come near me at all.

I have a berreta Neos loaded up with cci Stingers and a reddot ready to go but they wont fly over on my property.
