Story time....Once hunting pheasants in the snow, and heavy wind my partner, and I, my wife, saw a low flying small bunch of Canadian Honkers blowing from side to side, low, and coming at us. We jumped in the ditch we were hunting, and had to move back, and forth to keep in line with them flying into the wind. I picked one out, and unloaded my O/U. The goose went on a lower glide pattern, and appeared to have landed on a farmers house roof some 1/4 mile away, or so. Got in the car, pulled into the farmer's driveway, knocked on the door, and told him what we thought had happened. He led us around his house looking up on his roof, and there was the goose at his back door steps having slid off his roof..stone dead. And it wasn't his farm land that we were hunting. No dekes needed for that one either.

GREAT QUESTION, I DON'T USUALLY HUNT WITHOUT DECOYS, BUT WHEN I DO I SCOUT OUT MY PROPERTY OR WHEREVER IM GOING TO HUNT AND FIND WHERE THE DUCKS ARE NATURALLY GOING. I THEN WILL FIND A GOOD PLACE TO BLEND IN TO MY MAX4 OR MOSSY OAK GRASS BLADES, OR MAKE A QUICK FIELD BLIND WITH THE BRUSH AND REEDS BY THE SPOT I HAVE FOUND TO HUNT. SIT QUIET AND PATIENT, AND DO NOT MOVE!! YOU SHOULD HAVE SOME SUCESS AND ALSO DONT TRY TO CALL THE DUCKS IN THERE WONT BE ANYTHING TO CALL FROM. I LIVE IN UTAH AND FIND SUCESS IN DOING THIS. BEST OF LUCK!!
