Goose opener
« on: November 15, 2011, 12:25:53 PM »
Today was the first day of goose season in my area. Had my limit (2) by 8am. I'm enjoying the uneducated geese. They get smart very quickly. Within a month, they will be in grad school.

Geese in my area flying early. Start about 7am and it's over by 8:30. Lots of geese till the sun gets bright and the geese decide to graze in the sunny grass fields.

     I think the ones in my area are graduated with honers closest they came to me was about 100yrds. My spread was for ducks but I did have 2 goose deeks  out just for an atractor.

Season opened for us this last Saturday, but I spent my opener hunting pheasants in eastern Colorado. It'll be a different story come Thanksgiving weekend. I've got a few feilds around here that are being hit pretty regularly and the hunt looks to be nice.
 
But the real hunting doesn't start until the week between Christmas and New Years...that's when the big migrator flocks come through and the hunting just gets fabulous. 8)
