Ornithologist Dr. J. Heckel has found that a single crow can be responsible for destroying at least 20 waterfowl eggs per year. Heckle’s research hints that quail plantations, turkey and upland hunters, along with waterfowlers can do their part to enhance game bird populations if they were to simply start hunting crow.
Enter premiere hunting shotshell manufacturer Fiocchi.
Fiocchi has developed a dedicated crow shotshell to maximize crow mortality with a wad that delivers an incredibly dense pattern in a shorter shot string than traditional shotshells.
Whether you are decoying birds into cornfields or hunting timber birds, Fiocchi’s new Caw Caw Cawtridge will deliver devastating results on this uncanny foe.
Up-and-coming YouTuber, TimJoe the Crowhunter, shared his experience with the industry-first shotshell created for crow-hunting enthusiasts.
“I’ve been hunting crows most of my life,” said TimJoe. “In fact, my family and I eat crow almost every day. This new Caw Caw shotshell puts more crow in our kettle and on the grill than anything else I’ve tried. Not only does it help keep us in vittles, but it also helps me feel like I am doing my part to save game birds. After all, you can’t live on crow alone; but if you want to try, check out my YouTube channel for some great crow recipes.”
Another unique feature of the Caw Caw Cawtridge that helps the novice and seasoned hunter alike is the integration of an App-based crow call built into every Caw Caw ammo box. Hunters can bring the box with them into the field and select one of three popular calls: Feeding Crow, Fighting Crows, or Dying Crow.
Veteran crow hunters who were part of the beta testing program have taken the Caw Caw ammo box one step further by painting the boxes matte black and mixing them into their decoy spreads. This creates a virtual (and vocal) murder of feeding crows that attracts even the wariest of these aggressive marauders into shooting range.
Fiocchi is committed to the future of wingshooting and is encouraging every hunter to do their part in joining in this new conservation initiative: Shoot a Crow, Save a Gamebird.
Part of Fiocchi’s Field Dynamics line, the Caw Caw Cawtridges are offered in 12-, 20-, and 28-gauge, and in .410 bore for hunters who are skilled in the up-close sport of crow fanning. Available in #6, 7.5, and 8 lead shot.
