I have a river steelie tourney this sat. my buddie has been doing pretty good on em but it will be tuff with this cold weather.

oops sorry didnt see your post on the band already. good job !

wtg on the bling !!!! let us know where they were banded! I have 4 bands off geese 1 was banded in fennville and 3 in southern james bay.

I took my 11 yr old girl out goose hunting this morning and she shot her fist goose! One shot about 30 yrds out front, I followed up by dumping one myself.In the morning it's the todd farm youth hunt and she can't wait!

Mark, It does take some luck as well, but i do shoot enough to know i can make the shot with a rest or i would not have taken it.I use remington expess rifled slugs,they shoot the best out of my gun.

saw 8 does and 1 buck ( to far to shoot)on the opener , Shot a nice doe at 3:00 p.m. Then sun eve. 11-22 I was hunting near a corn field and had a very nice 4 point chase some does out to the field edge , one of the does had me pegged so i had to shoot the buck at 110 yrds with my 12 gauge smoothe bore with scope:eek: and dropped him in his tracks!!;)He was 2 1/2 yrs old and weighed 138 lbs dressed out.The only pic I have is in the back of my truck so I did not post it,I didnt have a camera with me in the woods sorry.:rolleyes:Time to kill geese and steelhead now!!!

Just can't put the old jimbobber away yet!:Djimbobber
