Yes, he is a fantastic shot, and that Perrazi with the Over/Under barrels is a fine shotgun- but his crow technique won't 'fly" here, where I average 500 dead ones a year- all close in shots with a unplugged M12 12 gauge and AA skeet 9's- I won't waste my time on "bluebird days" for crows or decoying barn pigeons, and I wear the "full Monty' of camo as i do for waterfowling and turkey- and the spec. Op. mantra of "no rattle- no shine'
But then, I am not a Limey or a clays or a O/U man- I've been shooting crows for nearly 40 years and have tried it all. FWIW my annual average is higher than yours. Anyone who uses AA Skeet 9's, regardless of gun, on crows is either ignorant of the fact larger shot can do everything the 9's can and then some or they don't mind being terribly handicapped and wounding birds that would otherwise be dead.

Where did it ever say George was shooting at crows??. Carry on shooting 500 crows with your pump shotgun, a fine one , true, but I am not interested in your shooting of crows as you are not interested in leaning some new interesting stuff about long range shotgun by one of the world's best shooters This is exhibition shooting pure and simple, just as those Winchester exhibition threw up 5 clays by hand and shot them all before they hit the ground with a Model 12. Maybe you could do that with 5 crows? Mike

The Crow video is actually much better and longer than the exhibition shooting video and shows his shooting talents/ability in the real world........ Maybe Mike, if you watch the crow video, you may learn something and will see how really good George Digweed can shoot................ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YAWU-0RX-6g ---------(fixed and correct)

Everyone knows that the best clay target shooters have big guts. (i.e. Digweed, Big Leo, Harlan Campbell and myself....that's my story and I'm sticking to it)
