    A good sized swan is 16-20lbs.
    1st Im in charge, and if not Matt is. Your job is to sign checks, tell us we're doing good and open your case of scotch after a good day. 2nd my fee. You can keep it, all I want in exchange for my service is the right to hunt all the drakes. A male. Buck only. Why and how are my business. If you don't like it, go alone. Set up right here or in a swamp or in the middle of a noshoot field for all I care. I've been on too many duck hunts with rich dentists to listen to any more suicidal ideas. Ok?

    According to wikkipedia " An exceptionally large male of the race B. c. maxima, the "giant Canada goose" (which rarely exceed 8 kilograms (18 lb)), weighed 10.9 kilograms (24 lb) and had a wingspan of 2.24 metres (7.3 ft). This specimen is the largest wild goose ever recorded of any species."

    Big honking goose - pun intended.

    Re: Big goose

    It's tail appears to be close or even with the hunters knee and the end of the bill even with his nose, the body is close to same width as the hunters body, no doubt one hell of a big goose, but 23 lbs, maybe. Next goose I shoot I'll have to do some comparisons and see. Biggest one I've shot as 13 lbs and it was also the toughest son of ..... that I've ever tried to eat.
