My first call I ever purchased was a wooden crow call from Big 5. I was a kid and I would blow that thing in my neighborhood while riding my bike and I would have a whole flock (yes, I know, murder) of crows following me on my bike. It was insane. The crow call works very well. Still have that call. I've shot plenty of crow as a kid via my pellet gun and shotgun on my dad's farm. Never ate them though. Never will. Pigeon on the other hand is delish! I've watched crows take out baby chicks and eggs from nests in my dad's backyard. He used to dust them with a pellet gun. Happy hunting.
