Faking Off Crows

Some hunters construct decoys out of black material to resemble wings. They'll hang these homemade decoys on a bush so they'll flop in the wind. Also remember that when crows respond to a particular sound and get shot at, they'll fly away when they hear that sound again. However, they'll generally come right back to another sound if you switch over to a crow's death call or a single excited crow call.

crowDon't assume that you can't call in spooked crows. If you encounter some crows that have not been called to very much, you usually can call them back in after you've shot at them.

After the crows leave the first initial barrage of shots, change sounds. Experts routinely call crows back to the same general area four times before just by switching calls and using decoys and movement.

Pecan orchards in the fall provide excellent places to set up and call in crows. Try learning a feeding call using a mouth blown call. If they go several hundred yards and sit in trees after you shoot a volley or two, switch to a death call and get another round of fire in. When that group leaves, be patient and a new group may come in soon to provide more action. Go back to the feeding call.
Dress out the breast just like you do a dove so all you have is the two lobes of meat attached to the breast bone. Marinate in Dale's or Allegro liquid seasoning in a zip lock baggie. After marinating overnight in fridge, drain and make a small slit on each side of the center bone. Into the small slit, push in a jalapeno slice. Wrap with bacon and hold together with a toothpick. Grill on charcoal until done but not til meat becomes dry. If you dont publicize the fact this is crow, many folks won't even be able to tell it after prepared this way.
