Hey Crazy Farmer Nice job. When I first saw the picture, I thought you must have been hunting out of province as I thought our season didn't open until the 12th. Then I looked at the regs . My 12 yr old saw the regs and decided that since geese were open and there were some in a neighbours field that morning, I should get my migratory permit.
During evening milking he comes in and tells me that the geese have returned to the field. So after milking I took him to where I thought they would fly over upon leaving and waited. At 7;30 the first group came right over us and when I told him to shoot, a big goose folded up and landed 30 feet behind us. He missed on his second shot but as more geese were flying around, another flock came by at about 20 yards and he dropped another one. He was very happy as they were his first geese and the first time using an 870 Express that I bought on the exchange earlier this summer. I can just hear the bragging going on at school today.
