eccles Posted August 7, 2013 Report Share Posted August 7, 2013 Going to have a bash on the crows in the morning. Just spoke with my farmer friend said more crows than has been there. I said i could shoot more i'm sure if i could try and set up where the barley has been flattened said shoot the things not that word really where you want. Let you know how we get on. An Early start should be good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steve_b_wales Posted August 7, 2013 Report Share Posted August 7, 2013 Looking forward to making a serious dent in the Corvid population tomorrow. An early 3am start for me, but well worth it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steve_b_wales Posted August 7, 2013 Report Share Posted August 7, 2013 I'm used to early starts on the Corvid's. Usually, when Mark (the poacher) and I go after them, we are setting the decoys out before 1st light. Really looking forward to having a crack at them again. I hate them with a passion!

hawkeye Posted August 9, 2013 Report Share Posted August 9, 2013 The last time i shot corvids i was up at 3am , on the farm and set up by 4am the song birds were just starting to sing the first black one came in at 4.20am shot steady away till 7am then they switched off never had another shot so packed up at 7-30am and picked up over 70 so not to bad for a couple of hours or so ... Back home and in bed for a couple of hours by 8-30am Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hawkeye Posted August 9, 2013 Report Share Posted August 9, 2013 There is only one person i know that loves shooting the black one's more than me and thats KDUBYA ... This particular farm has open plan buildings full of beef cattle the crows come into the buildings to feed on the cattle meal. So i just set up with my back to one of the troughs and get them as they try to get into the sheds to feed.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
