Weed's Field

Yep that's right I said Weed's field.
After weeks of rejection he finally got permission to hunt a field. I won't tell you he's had permission to hunt yotes on it for years, so getting to hunt geese on it wasn't a real stretch.
Anyway as it was Weed's field, it of course had a hundred or so geese on it yesterday. The roost at Hamilton Lake was holding 1,500 birds so there were plenty of birds in the area.
We met up, drove out in the field (it was nice to drive out there instead of having to pack everything in) and set up on a little rise.
We were sitting there talking when 1 goose came in low and slow to the N of us. We called but the goose was acting really weird, he set down about 100 yards away from us all by his lonesome. Well Weed had had enough and started to put a sneak on the goose. He got about 40 yards away from me and our set up when the skies darkened and the geese started working the spread. For whatever reason they flared out and the flock behind them followed suit. That was kind of a blessing cause Weed got tired of crawling, so he decided to stand up and just try to get close enough to the goose to shoot him. Well the goose took off and swung around into our spread where I was waiting to put him down for a dirt nap.
Weed got back to our set up and snuggled into his blind and waited for the rest of the geese to show up. It didn't take too long and we had honks cupping and slipping into the "death zone".
I honestly can't remember who called the shot. I just remember sitting up squeezing the trigger, hearing shotguns barking and watching 3 geese fall from the sky.
Game over, it's only 10 am so we picked up the spread as quickly as we could, and got out of the field. Before we left however we did a little scouting for the next time we would hit this field, which will be tomorrow or Thurs.
The birds up there were acting really weird, we attributed it to more hunting pressure up north. For some reason they didn't really want to finish until we hit the calls real hard. We also had a couple flocks flare off which hasn't happened alot this year, but up there it just seemed they saw something they didn't like. Well enough bout that we got in shot 4 and got out hoping to shoot it again in the next couple days.
It was a super fun hunt.
