If I'm not mistaken we can hunt them in Virginia monday wednesday friday and saturday like 9 months out of the year .

FWIW a good portion of the crows I've shot over the years were done when I was shooting groundhogs !

We'd just use the old groundhog rifle and shoot them from the hood of the truck !

I've been doing my level best to decimate the deer population in a couple central Virginia places !
We've way layed 14 so far this year . I'm hoping to get 5 more myself before the end of the month when or DCP's run out !
