That was my friends 1951 Chevy that we used as a hunting car in 1965.
If you look closely at photo #1 you can see the crow call around my fathers neck. It was all run & gun type of crow hunting in the early days in New York State.
Years ago I'd go afield with 4 boxes of ammo-12 gauge....heavy field loads...over the years I'd have the ammo but things were changing. These days I'd take four; a couple in the vehicle and only use up about two, two and a half boxes...my hit ratio was better too. Betcha I hit every air molecule when I pulled that trigger...and the crows wear wearing bullet proof vests!
This location staying all day long yielded too few crows to justify getting there much before noon time. To say nothing that the crows here hung to the east and rather fight bald eagles than visit me. But it was a good area but the spot I used stunk. I think the moral of the story is: go with the crow or leave the ammunition at home!

Tom in your last sentence of your last paragraph it should read "go with the crows or leave yourself at home" it would be intolerable for me to know where to get at the crows but could not get permission to hunt the ground. This is why I left the east coast 40 odd years ago because you could get some shooting but you were so handicapped with more and more people moving out to the country.
Once I got a taste of the shooting in the central part of the USA where you very rarely ever got turned down and the famous words that they would all say when you asked were "just kill em all" music to any crow hunters ears!
That's the story here: lots of crows in this one area but not allowed to hunt them!I am talking way north of here; not here..this local area here is only good for high powered pellet rifles...
