He likes long Straight grip Parkers. It's his 32 inch VH or DHE can't tell which.

Very nice Haley. Crows are particularly ornery right now in TN. Easy to call and decoy. It's a great way to spend a morning, and I plan to be out there Saturday early with my 30" Elsie - 26" Parker as back up.

Make all the crows good crows.

Anyone who enjoys waterfowling would enjoy crow shooting as the same tactics are employed; camouflage, calling and decoys. The pluses are many including long seasons, plentiful birds, use of e-callers and and no limits. Some people dismiss it because it's a blood sport and they say they won't shoot something they don't eat, yet often these same people would shoot a coyote if they had a chance. Crows are essentially flying coyotes when it comes to the havoc they raise with small game animals and song birds. If you haven't gone on a crow shoot you should consider it, it's fun, but be advised because of the long season and ample opportunities to shoot decoying birds you may find yourself somewhat bored with other hunting pursuits in short order.

Check out the Crow Buster's website. They are very passionate about crows, even eating them!

Though I've never tried crow, they eat the same nasty crap as possums, and I've eaten plenty of those in my youth. I think I'll stick with canvasback in my old age......

Plus.....they are primary carriers of West Nile Disease.

We had a bad run of West Nile here in Washtenaw County several years ago. I actually came down with it myself after getting bit up by mosquito's one evening at the gun club. It wasn't any fun at all.....

The following fall, I noticed when duck hunting locally, that you never even heard a crow in the distance let alone saw one. It had literally wiped them out from the area, but by the next fall they were back in force sadly.

Beaver Bob: I was always told if you find yourself in a situation that you have to eat crow,its best to do it why its still hot. I had to do it just last week after reporting to the owner of a motel that something was removed from my room and I found it in my coat pocket. Thomas
