I'm glad you got that goose video. That sound...wow...I'm at home and was putting away gear and I could just hear them in my head. Thousands of snows.
Dear Lord please bullwhip me for saying this but I agree, Marcstar is in the lead. Please nobody use this as a quote!!!

Here's a picture of Kansas Kid, myself, Windrider and FowlMouth after the morning duck hunt. We got three drake green-wing teal, four drake gadwalls and two hen gadwalls. We hunted small water beside a larger tank in 30 mile per hour winds. Thanks to FowlMouth for bringing his dog Drake, who did a great job on some long retrieves.

Yeah, all those geese thought hard about landing in our spread, man that would have been something. Instead, they landed on the other side of the field from us, and then we had to compete with that, and there was no way.
Also btw, someone left their Colman ice chest down there.

At least you got to shoot your first goose Guy. Seems like that would make it worth it right there for you.
Snow goose hunting when they are really coming in is pretty amazing...such a rush. But just being out there and seeing and hearing them all is pretty cool as well.
I think if we would have had some wind in the early morning we might have done better. Also if it was overcast or cloudy I think we would have hammered at least one big group.

Yeah, that was also my first goose hunt, but Greg got me good with his little band trick.

Holy crap that was funny. He pulled that on me the day before with that pintail I got. I kind of knew he was BSing since I figured the guides would have said something after the dogs took it too him...but still I opened my mouth real wide cause the way Greg lined it up it looked pretty real.
So when we moved our ground blinds around at one point I grabbed that goose and gave it to Greg and whispered to him to pull that band trick on guy. Greg has a band on his lanyard. Anyway...I walked away and said in a voice loud enough that hopefully Guy would hear to greg "Hey did anyone check to see if that goose was banded?". Greg picks it up "Holy Sh__ Guy...this goose is banded" and shows Guy. Guy screams "NO WAY!!!!!" I started laughing my [censored] off because of the excitement in his voice. That was classic and may have been the highlight for me. I think it was pretty cool I got to see him get his first goose though too.

It's not skybusting, if you make the shot.

I'd say the hanging out and meeting the guys was the best thing about it. Met some really great guys who I'd love to hangout with and hunt with more.
And man...did Chase have some good stories. Not sure when the last time I laughed that hard between his stories and some of Gregs stories.

I made sure to take video of them working as I was walking and will try and post it up later. Also got one of their retrieves as well I think. I will try and post it up later tonight when I get home. I know I said it already... but those dogs did great.

I too had a great time meeting and hunting with the THF guys. I think I had a grin on my face the whole time! It was a pleasure meeting and hunting with all you. Chase and Greg had some really interesting stories. When I first got there I thought Greg was the cook because he said he was going to cook steaks. I saw him put two on, and thought that is not going to be enough for all of us. After seeing the steaks, I'm glad I he was cooking for himself. Anyway, I had a great time! I really enjoyed the upland pheasant. I have never done that before. I'm looking forward to seeing the pictures and videos.

I didnt take too many pics but here are all of them: Dead ducks I made a decent shot on a pintail. Mbass, Greg, Chase, and the guides after the pheasant hunt looking at Greg's 1887 10ga double. Mbass takes a shot with the old gun Chase takes a turn. You can see the smoke. This gun only took blackpowder shells so it looked like you were shooting a roman candle when firing it. The shells were specially made for it with a roll crimp...pretty cool stuff. My turn! Pics after the pheasant shoot:
