Hi all, newbie here from central Virginia... Crow season opened up a couple Saturdays ago and me and the crew have been having a blast.

we managed to bust quite a few this past Saturday...how often do you go back to the same area?

Sam,

Welcome
For us it's 3 to 4 weeks but this year we are going to try some different strategy and see if they reload with fresh birds quicker on a couple of properties.

Welcome to the forum. This is only my second season but I still give them 2 weeks before I hit up the same spot. 3 weeks if I can but if 2 is a must then I will set up differently as in fist run was a feeding set and soft calling then it will be a fighting set and call location will be at least 200-300 yards away from where I was before. I haven't done much hard calling so I tend to do more feeding sets and just change places. Will be trying my hand at mote fighting sets this year though.

Welcome to the forum, and good luck on your future hunting trips!

For us, it is unusual to have any significant numbers at a food source for at least 3 weeks after shooting.  We usually wait 4 weeks and even then there is a noticeable drop in the TBC.

Good Hunting!

Demi

We are using a FoxPro caller and some home made decoys...it worked OK on Saturday.
Guess we should wait a couple weeks before hitting it again....can you say addicting?

 It is extremely addicting. I decided to give it a shot last year because I tagged out on deer early and figured it was worth a shot. Now I have had to upgrade my foxpro buy a 3rd decoy bag cause I keep out growing it and got some of the mouth calls from crowmart. By the way I would HIGHLY recommend that. They sound 100 times better then the mass produced ones. I was using primos and others before and didn't realize what I was missing. There is also an instructional CD by Bob and it will help TONS with your hand calling.
