with geese... resters/sleepers and feeders should make up the majority of the inner flock. Sentries should be few out around the edges.

All birds should be for the most part facing the wind. Also when I'm setting up. I pace out 40 yards and that's where my furthest decoy goes. If the wind is blowing east to west say... I have my decoys a little east of my blind. That way when they come in to land they're landing right in front of you.
