Late season goose

Yesterday was the first day that I was able to get out for late season goose, and it turned out pretty good. I only had one problem, the geese kept flaring. Since we have some snow here I had my snow cover on my blind. I have been using this cover for the past couple years. The thing about this snow cover is that some days it works great and some days the geese are just able to pick it out. So after getting flock after flock into around 60 yards or so and flaring off, I made the painful decision to get another snow cover.
That's the bad news the good news is Cabela's has their blinds and covers on sale..... score!
Anyway, I connected on a long shot and sailed the goose out 300 yards before he dropped. I walked out to get him and had a four pak pass right over the top of me, I culled out the slowest goose. Then my last one was a lost young bird just looking for some friends and thought his BFF was in my spread..... he came home with me. So that makes three for the day and that left me 2 shy of limit, but any day hunting is a good day.
Anyone need a good used snow cover????
