Try it some time and I think you'll see why. They come into a call pretty good and it can get pretty loud when you have a large group come in all agitated. They are challenging to hit, but a lot of fun to go after. I know a trapper who loves to use them as bait, and ask any farmer what they think of them when they are trying to get seed in the ground. The best reason to hunt crows is you often do it when most other seasons are over and it makes for a great time in the outdoors.
