We hunt North East Arkansas with Bustin Geese Outfitters.
This is a fun little water hunt with the guys of Stumblin' Drake filming team. Join Nick and the boys on a perfect situation water hunt done with perfection. Letting the birds leave on their own to go feed is VERY important! And on this day, the weather cooperated and the birds were hungry for some midwest corn. With mild temps and light snow fall, the geese became very active. After the birds left the roost it was time to set up quickly and get ready for a speedy return. The boys shot the first few singles, pairs, and small flocks that came in to the spread. After a quick hunt with a limit of 2 birds each, the crew packed up and got out fast. Making this the perfect scenario to let the birds come back to rest with no pressure from hunters. Hunting smart is how we do it around here!

Mid Season goose hunt in Minn with NFL football player Audie Cole. Audie is a rookie for the Minn Vikings and he loves to kill stuff! On the hunt we are running traffic, trying to pull birds from one end of a long field to the end we are set up on. Lots of calling, flagging, and a big number of decoys to attract the birds. We couldnt hunt the "X" end of the field because of houses and building too close to shoot by. So we went to the other end and pulled them to us. A hunter has to do whatever he can to put the birds in the decoys the correct and safe way. To see the full hunt and tips, check out the School of Waterfowl III DVD coming this summer at bigseanscalls.com
I went 0 for 8 on quality shot opportunities this day.
I was able to recover over the next two days but am still missing some easy ones. The previous couple of weekends I was hitting some of the tougher shots.
