Heres a few pix from a crow hunt this weekend, we got 5 birds, it was hot n humid, rained heavily, and the frickin mosquitoes were just ferocious....THANK GOD HUNTING SEASON IS OPEN :yoyo:....thats my oldest friend with his nephew with one the kid nailed he was pretty happy and went into the corn after his bird, we got 5 out of that field :highclap: :bowingsmilie:....the pix with all the birds flying were taken as they were mobbing a hawk, HUGE, LOUD group, it was getting late so we let them slide for another day.

Senor Silencer, we didnt see much inland in the fields and woods much so we focused on the river systems and corn fields and found alot more birds....when all else fails a good gnarly old dairy farm with feed all over and cow sheet and plowed up dirt is always a hot spot....i saw about 20+ birds on a pile of cow flopper, drove right by in the corn field, would have made a great stalk using the corn for cover, no pun intended :biggrin: ( get it Jimbo? ..corn+stalk?). :roflmao:..hehe, BUT they were pretty close to some prize dairy cows so that was a NO-NO...

Cow Flopper.................. :roflmao: :roflmao: :laf: :roflmao: :roflmao:

EEEEWWWW!  And I thought I grew up poor!   :laugh2:   :roflmao:

I figured since we havent hunted them in months, and the young are flying around, we'd see more  :shrug:

Damn parents must be teachin them, maybe its time to change blind locations lol.

HaMeR

They will become educated to those blind locations.  :wink:  Switch up & hit em from a new angle.  :eyebrow:

Making fun WITH you sir!... :wink:....Heres a pic of a "crow" tree, you set up, crank your call quick and loud, shut it down, sit and if they are anywheres around, they will come and land in the tree....BANG!...you find these stop-over trees by watching the crows alot...then capitalize on their habitual behavior. If im tree hunting I leave my semi shotgun at home and take the .22 or .17 if its safe to shoot in the air, if not I take my Mossberg 835 with Polychoke cranked to Xtra-full, #6 shot and pop the crows out of the tree. I have a whole string of these trees memorized they are like a good field or den tree.



nastygunz

same tree with 6 crows in it one day later


FinsnFur

Yeah, because they are higher then the rest putting the crows above the obstructions :innocentwhistle: :laf: :laf:

A good shotgun pattern, and a guy should be able to whack about 5 per pull.
