Key to that situation mossy .is set up a really good hide within range of a decent sitty tree or wire .and shoot them with an airrifle .there is no banging and the birds will stay in the field .and keep returning to your tree . You can spread a few decoys around the field but dont be too tempted to just have them under your tree as they can put them off .in fact id have your decoys at least 50 yds from your tree .that way they will sit and watch them from a distance while u pick them off .
