First it's Stuart Wilson in the hot seat - or should that be the garden seat? He's aiming to bump off some marauding corvids over bait from his garden shed. But the pesky crows and magpies are more wily than he gives them credit for...
And in the second part of the show Mat brings you another technical how-to piece. This time, learn how to apply holdover and holdunder to any situation in the field - you'll never miss again.
Don't miss our news special, either, brought to you from IWA in Nuremberg - the shooting industry trade show where all the biggest new product launches happen.

Learned this one from an old farmer; crows are smart, but they can't count. Bring a friend with you next time. Set your bait out. Both of you go into the shed. After a bit, have your friend leave. They think the threat has now left. You are still in position and ready to take them down.

@tgardner866 7 лет назад

Clever indeed

@apollo_baby_brown1393 7 лет назад

Stuart, get a friend to walk to the shed with you. Wait inside ten mins, let friend leave and crows will assume u have left. This does work. Try one time u never know. It may work for you. Great sport, great shooting.love going against corvid's.

Austin Hamilton..... nope....... the crows are not stupid.... they can count....

@chopperhehehe 5 лет назад

No it works for sure

@franklegerski9682 Год назад

Crows are extremely smart and hard to trick into getting close enough to shoot at.

@dforr2981 4 года назад

This is one of the Better Guest Presenter you've had Matt. Glad you don't mind sharing the spotlight... you are still my favorite though... yes all the way from the US of A. Tried hunting Cows myself and they are keen eyed and learn and remember.

@secretsix6 7 лет назад

what we worked out when we were kids is crows cant count we would walk up to a carrion crows nest three of us the crows would fly off,one of us would hide an the the other 2 would walk off down the field the crows would all ways come back unaware that one was about to meet his maker

@MrLongbow1415 7 лет назад

I have shot Many many Magpies, get one, leave it, and the rest just flock in.

@rossrritchie1400 3 года назад

Soak bread over night in a container top it out tbis way no corvid can take whole slice away as it breaks instantly leave a magpie in a cradle as decoy near break don't shoot any magpies at first as crows will watch magpies first to see it's safe if any crows fail to come in you can then turn on the magpies

Mat keep up the great videos mate! you guys always do great work and always a pleasure to watch and pick up new tricks!

@aerialsurveillance3524 7 лет назад

Hi Mat, Nicky and crew. Sitting here in Iowa loving your show. You do realize that you are basically on a big, giant island where the sun barely shines, right?

@Gazzyb2071 7 лет назад

Great tutorial on the aim points, hold under and hold over mat. Great tip on 1st focal plane and 2nd focal plane scopes too. Very good thanks.

@theshootingshow 7 лет назад

Thanks Gareth. I hope it proves useful to other shooters. All the best. Mat

@ratrabbitandpestsniper1826 7 лет назад

Thanks Teno. Glad you're enjoying it. All the best. Mat

Critical statement Mat about practicing your H/O or H/U at various elevations. Since hunters are usually shooting up when going for quarry like squirrels and doves, remember to hold UNDER for these shots. I sounds counterintuitive, but once you start doing that, I guarantee your kill ratios will increase. I practice on pine cones at different elevations and distances using a laser range finder with slope compensation to confirm the figures. I then create a chart to refer to when I am in these situations. Really helpful. ATB, Michael

@theshootingshow 7 лет назад

Great advice, Michael. All the best. Mat

@BradBrassman 5 лет назад

Personally I'd leave the birds out as decoys, which works well for me; plus they'll be gone in the morning, 'Ol Toby'll see to that.

@DSROBB 4 года назад

Great information on the hold over, hold under. I just need to find somewhere with enough flat distance to try the 5 metre targets... my garden is all uphill so hard to zero a scope when you are always shooting an elevated target.

@geetee7154 7 лет назад

Hi Matt, top video as usual, some very interesting things to come in 2017,some good tips on shooting trajectory, something I have difficulty grasping being relatively new to Airgun shooting, keep up the good work.

@hanshahr8627 6 лет назад

Great shooting!!! And patience!! I know what it takes. Friggin crows are so impossible. They always have a sentry posted high. Our old shop had a field behind it. It was 1/8 mile long. I use to shoot crows or ravens from our shop. I would have to get there at first light to catch them. I'm saying,1/8 mile away, when I pulled into our shop at first light, when they saw my truck pull in, they flew away!!! No matter what time of day, if my truck pulled in, they flew away. They reconciled my vehicle 1/8 of a mile away!!! Of course I was using a 25.06 rifle to reach them. This is a true story!! They are sooooo smart!!!

@phoebecripps1380 5 лет назад

So why not leave them alone? What damage are they doing? Affecting your pheasants etx that you are breeding for game? You are an idiot. Karma will get you.

@kelticpaddler 5 лет назад

Good lad Stuart. What a great back garden

@darrannewman7113 7 лет назад

Well done Stuart, taking any corvid at that range without them spotting you is difficult, and they are very wise knowing if you have snuck into the shed to wait for them. Oh and Matt you done good too.

@theshootingshow 7 лет назад

Cheers Darran. I think Stuart did a fantastic job - especially with the added hassle of capturing it on camera. All the best. Mat

@phoebecripps1380 5 лет назад

darran newman what are you killing them for?

@1AOR1 7 лет назад

I personally find crows to interesting and intelligent to shoot. nice shots though.

@arshadusmani833 5 лет назад

@tacticalshot8685 7 лет назад

Very cool!

@moonbear6220 7 лет назад

thanks for another decent show..

@theshootingshow 7 лет назад

Glad you liked it. All the best. Mat

@deanmorriss7184 7 лет назад

Great shooting good patience, crows natural enemy is the owl try putting a owl decoy in the open and the crows should be less cautious and try to attack the decoy.cheers Dean

@theshootingshow 7 лет назад

That's a good tactic, Dean. Especially at this time of year when corvids are very territorial. All the best. Mat

@MarsterDartster 7 лет назад

Put some chicken mesh over the bread and they won't fly off with the bread

@theshootingshow 7 лет назад

That's a great tip - thanks for sharing it. All the best. Mat

lazy lazy video making big stuart your garden shed this week, whats next week hanging out your kitchen window lol.good vid as always guys.

@no1LCRACER 7 лет назад

i used to get my mate to wonder up to the tree with me they would fly off we would stay close to each other and then i would hide he would then wonder off in the same way crow can not count bag that warey one all the time

@StuartNIR 4 года назад

Is this gun sub 12ft?

@trevorcollins9297 7 лет назад

I've always found that a split open rabbit often keeps them there long enough to get a bead on them but they are not easy to shoot that's for sure, very weary birds and you need to keep yourself really concealed but its great sport!!!

@theshootingshow 7 лет назад

They certainly are a tricky quarry, Trevor. I reckon Stuart has done a pretty good job bagging two corvids for the camera. The rabbit bait is a good one - it's a method I often use myself. All the best. Mat

@clickbait9744 3 года назад

niceee

@shawnweaver8025 7 лет назад

How often does The Airgun Show post videos? Mat always sights off with see you in a fortnight, but it's always longer here in the States.

@12gauge44 7 лет назад

Will have to try getting some crows with my airgun, So far I only hunt starlings and pigeons with it.

@timkourbo3196 5 лет назад

Buy yourself a fake crow on a stick and set it right by the bread. Other crows will start to land close by. Proceed to shoot.

@pauljay1328 7 лет назад

Try a uncut loaf of bread

@russdouglasagw8151 5 лет назад

Bit too much chat / little action on this one, but credit to Stuart for getting the two Corvids in the end. I'm really glad you've replaced the laughable faux-croaky voiceover dude for the show coverage, since these older videos.

@mar4948 7 лет назад

to much talking not anuff action , Ohh at last the crow was shot

@user-pd6tb7oq3e 6 лет назад

space hopper, if you want to learn, you need to listen to the spoken word....... you can only hear speaking when there is talking....... So just pay attention carefully. The vid is just great and Mat is a great airgun hunter

@billredding2000 5 лет назад

Maybe some of us already know those things? WAY too much talk and too little action...this has got to be the worst "airgun pest control" channel on RU-vid due to all the babbling on and on. Just SHUT UP and SHOOT...even the birds are bored to death. -- BR.
