Finally got into some Geese
After some scouting, we finally got into a field that geese were in the day before. They got shot up in the morning but came back in the afternoon so we were hoepful they'd still come back. We set up just shy of 5 dozen decoys at around 5:30 and had a flock come in around 6:30. It was 7 Lessers and we dropped 3 out of that group. For the next two hours it was only about 2 more flocks to come in and a single that came right in. All said and done for three guys we got 7 geese and one duck, we didnt even have a robo out and we could of had a limit of ducks there was that many coming into the geese but we wanted the geese bad. 4 big honkers the biggest on the left weighed in just over 12 pounds and 3 cute little lessers. We didnt see any of the big flocks come off the roost but we left them for another day since they got shot up in the same field the day before. I have to say I was very impressed with the DSD decoys, I set them up away from the rest and all together and most of all the geese seemed to want to fly either over them or into them. Compared to our ghgs the paint is so much more realistic and the body looks prefect compared to ghgs which are pretty much oval and not exactly like how geese actually are.

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?
