Flintlock Crows
One Shot, One Crow
Cool breezy early morning, set up in the edge of the woods overlooking a soybean field. Put an Owl decoy on a 12’ pole at 25yds and scattered a half dozen crow decoys on the ground around it. Started calling and had 4-5 crows overhead in a minutes, nailed one, and the others left. .54cal Flintlock SB, 70grns Goex 3F, 2 Oxyoke wads, 1+1/8oz 7.5s, and an O/S card. Reloaded and started calling again for the next hour but only had a couple more even come in sight and they never came close enough for a shot…smart birds. (Red tailed hawks show up every 15 minutes or so thinking there might be an easy meal) So I packed it in and will try a different location next time...but a good outing, accomplished what I set out to do with the Flintlock this morning.
