Good thing you didn't say there were 10,324 in a feed. Somebody would have called you out. Good Grief.

I don't pump the breaks I run full steam ahead. Nothing wrong with sharing a great write up about chasing snows, it's not written by me or strictly about me. It shares thoughts of several folks who are actually doing it

That is if you believe the feds. This is not a diss on you. I think the feds are feeding the hunters a bucket of crap as far as waterfowl numbers are concerned.

Y'all are still on this lol
I shared a field that Tony and I estimated to have 150,000/200,000 birds in it while in AR. My feeds where realistically holding 40-60k and I had 3-4 per week that size. My clients and I had a ball shooting these sky carp in adult feeds over 30k and even set up on some smaller feeds 3/10k of juvies once they showed up which produced the best number days because they where much easier to finish the biggg wads.
LMFAO!!! Now we are down to 40,000 birds per feed? If you had started at that number I probably would have believed you. I just don't think it's necessary to stretch the truth to your potential clients. I'd be tickled if I booked a hunt and the guide called and told me he had a 10,000 bird feed. If he told me he had a 100,000 bird feed and I show up and we see 10,000 I'd think he was a DA.
I'm with GK because I like salty old dudes.

Pretty good read about guys chasing snows as the head back north. https://issuu.com/lsoneditor/docs/lson_2_23_18_v9 I don't see where you have been "hated/dissed" upon. Just because we have questions and don't hold back has nothing to do with hating on you. You have an opinion there were four 100,000 bird feeds. I don't have an opinion on that in any capacity, I don't care as I am not hunting snows this year. My question was presented as nice as possible. I just don't see the outfitters swhacking a 333 birds every day for 30 days in a row. I grew up and spent over 40 years chasing the white birds. I grew up hunting in what used to be the snow goose capital, the Katy and San Bernard prairies. I am not going to tell you the 333 everyday for 30 days straight didn't happen, I just have a right to present my doubts. There was no hating going on. So far as John Paul, you need to meet John. I have met him and he seems to be a straight up honest, nice person. He has been one of the more level headed posters on this forum.

If he told me he had a 100,000 bird feed and I show up and we see 10,000 I'd think he was a DA. I never tell clients how big a feed is it's either a huge feed, monster feed big feed or small feed of juvies We typically shoot the same number whether 100,000 or 50,000 as the main key is the sizes of the groups as they come in to the feed. I like groups of 100-500 best as it's way more targets than we need but not a ton of eyes to pick out a client moving or anything array in the spread.

Fun area as the cranes make for a bonus. In AR & Mo 300+ days are rare but do happen every so often. 100-200 are semi common especially if you have the weather conditions, sun and 10-15mph wind that stays from the same direction all day. Swirling winds was a battle we faced several days but after a little experimentation I built a spread where we could quickly adjust to keep them locked up in the kill hole

I certainly hope no offense was taken as I would like to give your outfit a whirl one of these days. No offense was meant I assure you. I can be a super duper arseholio as I am sure Garrett, Hogman and Dave Speer will all chime in with confirmation to that fact. This was not the case this time. I have hunted them long enough to realize anyone that can chase them everyday for weeks on end has earned a spot of respect, no matter what else.

I have hunted with Garrett a time or two as well and I'm sure he can vouch for me not being a pecker. There's one or two ways a guy can chase em for months on end, they either truly have a passion for it or they are flat out crazy

easy to see how someone can get excited and over estimate. Hard to tell when birds fill a field up slam full...im used to seeing 2-4 and 6-10k in a field so when it doubles or is completely full and start seeing 15-20k estimates get hazy...easier way to keep track is when you have multiple hundred acre fields full then you know you are pushing 30-40k
