vole Posted June 19, 2008 Report Share Posted June 19, 2008 (edited) I had an hour or so spare so I went to the farm and chucked out a few decoys and settled back to call a few in,hopefully.I was pleased with the results ie 3 Jackdaws for 4 shells which I was delighted with as the Hushpower isnt the greatest for flying quarry. I had just finished texting when a shadow whizzed over my head,I looked up and a Buzzard had landed in the decoys. I had heard on PW about this kind of thing but was not prepared for it. Awesome to see a raptor so close. Wish had a pic of it so had to settle for the usual dead stuff pic. Edited June 19, 2008 by vole21 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vole Posted June 19, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 19, 2008 Cheers mate. I had the choke opened which helped too but because the sight picture is obscured I avoid shots that need alot of lead.Wish I could have stayed out longer though.

vole Posted June 19, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 19, 2008 Nice Shooting, love the gun Thanks very much. Its my daytime gun when the horses and schoolkids are in the yard etc. The quality of the gun itself is ,well,basic but the mod makes it something else.You have some interesting pieces on your signature I notice.

mendevelium Posted June 22, 2008 Report Share Posted June 22, 2008 Good shooting! I would just like to ask how best to decoy crows- do you just stick some deeks next to a food source or something? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vole Posted June 22, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 22, 2008 Good shooting! I would just like to ask how best to decoy crows- do you just stick some deeks next to a food source or something? I just use 2 carrion crow decoys plus or minus food( squirrel or bunny). Sometimes a magpie or owl decoy too. Dont use too many as I like to be on the move. I use a few calls too. Learning all the time though. Good luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
