Geese cripplers, stragglers and those not quite..dead

WOW, Breaking a Canadas neck isn't a tenth as difficult as it is made out to be.

The have no teeth and they are not going to hurt you, they weigh 16 lbs at the most.

I have killed hundreds with my hands never been assaulted or gored or anything.

Typically once you catch them by the neck they settle a little bit. The alternative is go Duck Commander on them and bite them on the back of the head.

I agree. They don't bite hard and their necks are not hard to hold onto.

Christ sounds like your hunting Ostrich lol. I have yet to see a Canada Goose in real life, i always wondered how big they got and what they tasted like.

I don't know where you are hunting up here, but they are everywhere right now!!
I grab them by the head and wring their necks normally, but this year I'm going to use a machete and lop off the heads!
I HATE running after geese and trying to grab them by the head!!
If i get a cripple on the water he gets smoked with another round....

I dont hunt with a dog, so getting the dog to finish it off isnt an option.

Just as a point of clarification, traditional sporting dogs (retrievers/versatile dogs) are used for retrieving not killing birds.

Myself, I prefer to wring necks - it's quick, humane, and fast.

Grab the top of the head with the base of the skull in the web between your thumb and forefinger. Turn your hand upside down and quickly spin them from inside to outside (clockwise for a righty - counter for a lefty). This breaks the top vertebra of the neck. I've done this to live geese and it kills them right quick.

They start flapping like mad but because they're outside your leg, you're not going to get it in the nuts.
