March Snow Goose

[formerbowhunter1023]

Just mailed in my deposit for our trip to hunt with Tony Vandemore at Habitat Flats is Missouri. I've never hunted out of state. I've never been on a field hunt or snow goose hunt either. I really don't have any business being on this hunt to be honest, but I bet it is going to be a trip I will never forget!!!

Yep. The year he went, they killed something like 250 some odd snow geese in 3 days. I'll piss myself if a flock comes in like that one at the end of the video!!! Like being in an Alfred Hitchcock movie!

Dang buddy I am jealous as hell right now. Those guys at Habitat Flats are awesome. I think losing Field and Clay Hudnall might just be the start to a downward spiral for the Zink Calls crew. Good for them to start up their own gigs with Habitat Flats, though.

You'll without a doubt have fun man... maybe too much fun. I've got a feeling your first fields hunts are going to spoil you for the rest of your waterfowling career LOL. From what I've seen, snow goose hunts out west are comparable to hunting doves in Mexico... you just can't possibly kill them all.

I'm pumped no doubt! I should have me a Benelli for the hunt, if not, Milo has a bird slayer I'm going to borrow. I'm going to be the rookie, but I can pull the trigger with the best of them!!!

Same to you, broseph. It's only been a couple days but I'm already really liking the attitude of this new site... definitely more laid back.

Benelli is definitely a true waterfowler's gun. My good friend bought an SBE II a couple seasons ago and he loves it. If I were to buy a new one, that would definitely be a top pick. The Browning Maxus is a sweet gun too, though. If you can't round up a gun without too much trouble, I've got an all black 3.5" Browning Gold with a Kicks High Flyer choke that would knock the piss out of some snow geese. Just let me know... I'd be more than happy to loan out ol' Moose Dick.

Correction... I see that the Hudnalls aren't as affiliated with Habitat Flats as they used to be. Looks like they've started their own call company... Field Proven Calls. http://www.fieldprovencalls.com/index.html Not that it's all that important, just didn't want to mislead anyone.
