37 lbs.

37 lbs? maybe 10

wow. that is a honker of a honker at 37lbs. I believe you. Last time I doubted someone, my whole post was deleted. You got me hook, line, and sinker.

Nice goose irregardless!

Would be nice to have the scale actually showing the weight. Largest Giant Canada I actually saw the weight was right at 18 lbs and he was huge!

That's about what I was thinking Kyotee...I know the size ranges and 37 lbs makes no sense. But yes...it is a nice good regardless.

Definitely need to contact U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service on that weight, it would be a record for sure!

Nice bird, but there is no way it weighs 37 lbs.

Greater Canada Goose from ducks.org:

Latin: Branta canadensis
Average length: M 25-45 inches
Average weight: M 3-13 lbs., F 3-11 lbs.

I'm thinking that I might fish a couple bass tourneys this spring, can I borrow your scale?

Aint no way it's 37 lbs. Its 3 ft long head to tail. and maybe 4.5 ft wingspan

Great looking goose.

maybe he didnt mean 37lbs...maybe he was 37 beers deep when he put it on the scale.

In either case, i believe it to be a little (alot) exagerrated.

lol i didn't believe it either. but the guy at sportsman's said it was. i really don't care how much it weighed. total wingspan was wider than my armspread. hit him 5 times before he dropped. i learned a valuble lesson that day. make sure you always have spare shells in reach. regardless of weight, i got a $100 gift card to sportsman warehouse for biggest bird of the season. so, embelishment,yes. scale wrong, probably. beautiful bird, defenitely!

sure. just gotta get back to colorado to get it from the store

Could be a slightly domesticated escapee. Who knows, but I'd want a for sure weight on him if it was me!

who cares what it weighs...if you had fun shooting it, thats what matters anyway. congrats!

had just as much fun eating it. thank god for semi auto's.

ah good times.

There is absolutely less than zero percent chance that it tipped the scales at 25 lbs, much less 37. A 15 lb. goose is so much bigger than you can imagine, much less 2.5 times that. In fact, folks are always claiming 17-18 lb geese. So much so, that Dropzone decoys did a free dozen fullbodies to the first person who could produce a 15 lb goose. Took 5 seasons before a hunter tipped the scales at 15.3 I believe. And this was a contest run on several different forums for nearly a thousand dollars of decoys. In fact, if i remember correctly, the contest started out as 20 lb goose contest and every year he dropped it a lb. to prove how ridiculous these claims are by hunters.


So, sorry, its a nice goose, but 37 lbs it is not.

Things that make you go "hmmmmmm....?" 13.7 lbs maybe?

I believe you Chris! 37 pounder!

yeah jepsen and that is a 37lb bass in your picture as well.

I don't shoot a lot of honkers, but one of the four I did take one this year hit 15.2 on my AWS certified scale. I think it was this one.



I didn't realize it was so rare or I would have taken more pics. My son shot one that went 14.2, it's the one in his right hand.

World record.

This one was 13.75 lbs:


got the door in there for some perspective.

Very nice huntnfly, but that's no 37 pounder.

Big Mofos

ah to be a naive newb again.

Lmao!!!

I'm not even gonna get started on this topic . I just think it's funny to see all these geese that people say are 15 pounds and bigger . Makes me laugh !

i've seen some pretty hefty geese. still chasin the 40 pounder that escaped me last year...

man shooting a 37 lb goose got you some suuuweet pro staffs lol

nah. they just wanted to make me CEO. i can't handle that amount of work

You know what makes me laugh?

When people try and advertise their business in a signature but mispell the website.

Prolly wont get a lot of hits that way.

Either
(a) You don't know what a certified scale is.
(b) You think I'm a liar.
(c) You think I'm too dumb to work a digital hanging scale.

None make me laugh.

this post was meant to make people laugh. some of ya'll need a better sense of humor.

Freaking hillarious!! What's a Ckeek?

LMAO

I never doubted your intention and I think it's funny.

But, somebody callin' me out is another thing...

Agreed, but with the drift wood and mounting plaque it MIGHT be within 15 punds of that.

I keep typing in www.rangerckeekgoose.com but it wont come up?!?!?

Nice bird, first of all...

Secondly, there was a lot of Canada's shot this year!

We shot well over 100 this year...and plan to get after them a little more next year...

Most of the Big Canada's we shot were around the 10 pound range...some ventured a little heavier than that!

J.J.

haha but the perks, man!

LC mighta been talking about his whole strap (the canada, ringers, and gaddy)

32 pound Canada (Geese).

Rob are those really 32 lbs?

Did you weigh them?

All Three Together. (on certified digital scales) (that I know how to use) HA HA

These were 28 pounds. (without the ducks).

nice bag!

Ghey hobo has a small honker.

judy slap yourself

LOL he sees that you called him out on it, fixes it, then crawls back into his hole instead of laughing at himself a little bit. Makes me laugh !

Ya ya ya I messed up . Glad y'all got a kick out it .

thanks for fessin up. i was wonderin who they were talkin about

We did get a kick out it, you're a good sport though.

I thought the darn bird ate some lead shot.Of course I dont have any idea where it would find that much to eat though!As I personally dont use the stuff.Ever!Not even the first three or four sets of birds that land.

I once shot a 16 lb mallard

This one was 14 pounds and one half ounce.

Very nice Rob!

I shot these 4 GWT this season, they each weighed 20 lbs each. I put them on a 8 x 4 sheet of plywood.

My great-great-great Grandfather was a Cherokee Indian, and owned what is still said to be the largest goose in the history of the high plains, weighed in at just under 396 lbs:

(thumbs up)

Classic

LMAO!!!!

It would be a lot cooler if he was indian banded

BOOYAH!

I forgot about this one. I had it mounted.

Yep, it was a whip gettin' this bad boy in the truck...

(thumbs up)

Larry your pretty good at the ol' photo shop!

Larry do you have some sort of extra program for photo shop? Pretty impressive work.

I have to admit I just took it off another site. I only deserve credit for doing a Google Image search for "Monster Goose" and finding those pics.

Well that was a job well done sir

Thanks for sharing
