Cheers guys if you can put your hide up the night before you can make a much better job of it then with plenty of natural material i always get there before daybreak although everyone has different ideas and has been said stay very still untill you take your shot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hedd-wyn Posted May 18, 2012 Report Share Posted May 18, 2012 (edited) I agree with Dolphin 100%, I always try and get everything set up before daybreak I usually get better results this way. I don't particularly use a loads of decoys, half a dozen or so seems to do the trick because they don't appear to feed in huge numbers on my permission this time of year. If your going to be shooting over ten days then I suggest that you move the position of you hide as much as you can. They aren't daft birds and will quickly figure out what's going on. I'm off on the crows tomorrow as well, good luck to you and enjoy Crow shooting is the best kind of shooting IMO. ps I always try and floor them with my first shot, once you hear that dreaded alarm call when you've missed and been spotted, it usually goes tits up Edited May 18, 2012 by hedd-wyn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
