Bounties were paid on hawks in some counties of GA, also, in those days. Camden Co. comes to mind as one who did. My several cousins who lived there picked up extra spending money shooting them. Their Dad, my uncle, had a 218 Bee, but those boys were opportunists and took hawks any way they could.

My, my, how times have changed.

Yes my grandfather used to talk about setting leg hold traps on top of fence posts to catch them .
