Crow shooting for the first time. It DIDN'T disappoint!!

A build up of crows and other corvids on local farm land needed moving on and I got the thumbs up to set up my hide. This is my first time shooting crows so I didn't know what to expect! I was using the Gamebore clear pigeon 32g 6 steel cartridge and I personally didn't think it had enough to take some of them down. Lesson learned! As always the trusted Browning never let me down!
Leave a like on the video if you enjoyed it as I'll hopefully be doing a lot more of this in the coming weeks.

Cheers mate, thankfully it was only a brief shower and wasn’t too bad of a day 👍🏼

6s are good but use a flapper or 2 closer to your hide a spinner seems to move them on, and use lead, don`t have your decoys to far out.

Thanks mate, a lot of people have mentioned a flapper now so I’ll definitely look into getting one, cheers 👍🏼

get em in close and a 6 is plenty, try a flapper instead of a rotor they looked a bit wary.

Clear pigeon are lead but I use pigeon extreme, I don't mind the clear pigeon but found without a tight choke they dint kill clean so use modified choke with 34g extreme, great video dude keep it up.

@WhiteRoseShooting Ай бұрын

You must have read my mind haha, I’m giving the pigeon extreme a try next time out 34g 5’s. Sounds like I had the same issue as you, hitting a decent amount but not killing them. Glad you enjoyed the video 👍🏼 thanks.

As several people have already said bring the decoys in a bit closer & you seemed to get snagged in the netting a few times? I try to have two poles at the front but with plenty of room to swing. I also put the net a bit lower (but I'm short). I tried a bucket seat but found it too uncomfortable so emptied my wallet on an adjustable leg swivel chair. As for cartridges the two deadliest crow & pigeons shots I know shoot the cheapest fibre wad 7.5 clay cartridges they can buy through 3/4 & full choke - they can consistently drop them at 40+m which is astounding (& says it's the direction you shoot not the cartridge).

Make sure you flapper is not going fast use it on a very slow speed.

@WhiteRoseShooting Ай бұрын

I’ve heard 100rpm is a good speed for it with crows?

I'm sure Corvid wear Flack Jackets, they can take such a hit.

Tough aren’t they!? I’m hopefully going out again this weekend and using a different cartridge so we’ll see what happens! 🤞🏻

1/2 or 3/4 choke is great even with 6s just let them come in closer, clear pigeons only come in lead bud

@WhiteRoseShooting 2 ай бұрын

Thanks for the info mate, I was using 1/2 in both barrels so maybe I’ll tighten it up a bit. Totally agree with letting them come in closer, I was just getting giddy at the start of the day 👍🏼

when you say you moving back to lead are they steel then i allways find with crows better with a 5 or may be a 4 cheers pete

@WhiteRoseShooting 2 ай бұрын

Yes mate they’re 32g 6 steel. I’ve bought some 34g 5 for next time, see how I get on with those.

@WhiteRoseShooting Ай бұрын

Correction mate, sorrry. They’re not steel they’re lead I thought were steel 👍🏼

@cameronduveax282 2 ай бұрын

Looks like your pattern is a bit far out. I am not an expert but you want your pattern no more than 25 yards away. In a horseshoe shape. The middle of the horseshoe in front of you. But IAM NOT AN EXPERT. great vid. Also I would have 1/2 choke aswell

@WhiteRoseShooting 2 ай бұрын

Thanks for your opinion mate, it probably looks further away on camera but the middle of that pattern is 25 yards. As for the pattern itself i just winged it to be honest but seemed to work well. I’ll give the U shape pattern a try next time as it makes sense 👍🏼 thanks again

The clear pigeon are lead

@WhiteRoseShooting Ай бұрын

A few people have mentioned this now, I was (wrongly) told they were steel. I’ve just upped my shot size for next time from a 6 to a 5, see if they hit any harder! Thanks for the info, hope you enjoyed the vid 👍🏼

@ghillie35 Ай бұрын

I use 5s for everything it ok the steel cartridge normally have it written on them and yes I enjoyed the video 6s are ample for the crows just move the decoys in closer or let the birds come closer

@WhiteRoseShooting Ай бұрын

@@ghillie35 yes I think that’s what I’m going to do next time. Move them 5-10 yards closer and be a bit more patient 👍🏼

@ghillie35 Ай бұрын

Don’t get to disheartened buy it I used to worry about what choke and cartridges then just forgot about it and shoot more with out thinking about it it’s all about confidence

@WhiteRoseShooting Ай бұрын

@@ghillie35 completely agree with that! Happy with my results for the first time on crows though, hopefully get some bigger days in the bag now though 👍🏼
