Oh yeah! You can crank the volume up and slaughter them without dropping your call. You've never had fun like this! May I recommend Stewarts' "Death Cry of a Crow"? It is my all time favorite, especially with an owl or hawk decoy.

Been a while since I posted on here. And by the looks of things....some things never change.
BUT...I was curious about the electronic decoys for crows here in the great state (Commonwealth) of Pennsylvania. I have not seen where electronic decoys are permitted for crows. Would you please let me know where you saw this? I'm assuming in the hunting digest you get when you buy your license.
By the use or aid of live decoys, or decoys powered or operated by batteries or any other source of electricity. Electronic crow
decoys can be used for the hunting of crows.
Check out the New Hunter's Edge Dove Frenzy Decoy system... http://www.hunters-edge.com/dove.shtml A quick coat of Krylon Ultra Flat Black Fusion stray paint and I would bet you would be in business. We have found "flapping" beats "spinning" action on decoys here in the past.
I just got one of these decoy systems and will be testing it this fall, after it cool down here.
Off to Bass Pro Shops, Grapevine, TX this weekend to represent Remington for Mossy Oak. Way too hot in north Texas for crow hunting at this time!
Motion decoys are great but if you have to hit the same area over and over please keep this in mind; use your standard decoys as you normally would...pull out the motion decoys and a slightly different set up as the season wears on. this works for me every time.
