6.5x55SE Posted September 30, 2017 Report Share Posted September 30, 2017 After dropping Conor off at work there was just enough time to take my nephew for a Goose. A quick look at a spot I'd not been to this season saw 400-500 Greylag jump from a stubble then fly to a series of gravel pits past experiences told these Geese had been chased. With a outside chance we settled into a ditch only watch bunches of Geese go everywhere apart from over us a big surprise was 150+ Canada Geese which jus flopped out the pit onto the stubble. The Greylag was well jumpy one of the reasons being a vehicle driving around which now parked up with two people eyeing the Canada's which sat 200yrds away from us. 60 + Greylag jumped when 80 yrd out swung left straight to the Canada's saw the vehicle with two watching flaired gained height turned straight at us Taking the first then second well in front like driven pheasant i just managed the third before they got above us yet again my 20ga with 7/8oz Steel 3's along with a 1oz B's had stuffed the Geese turning to my nephew i can't print his comments. As we drove out the field i apprehended the two watching who's opening comments was " those 10ga Auto's kill " to say i well and truly bust the two's bubble is a understatement . Dash Cams are a wonderful piece of equipment ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Mat Posted September 30, 2017 Report Share Posted September 30, 2017 Your 20 is certainly a goose killer! I've yet to shoot a goose with mine, it's had a few ducks but not taken it after geese Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

6.5x55SE Posted September 30, 2017 Author Report Share Posted September 30, 2017 (edited) Gentleman thank you All very much 👍 I am very very fortunate to have access to some of the finest goose shooting in Europe Foreshore and Inland add to that being a self employed Welder i normally can go when the weather is okay and Geese are playing ball this season so far has been very restricted due to my Grandson working full time but hey I've still shot plenty hopefully a few more yet. Bring on the Moon's 😊 Edited September 30, 2017 by 6.5x55SE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marsh man Posted September 30, 2017 Report Share Posted September 30, 2017 A trio of any winged game with a shotgun is something to be proud of, and getting three geese with a small gauge gun is some fine marksmanship , same ole story really , the gun is capable of doing it , as long as the person using it is . Brad ... We haven't heard from our good friend anser2 ( Robert ) for a while , is he keeping well ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
