Haven't got any more decoys, but got a new goose call. What kind of fbs did you get? I am thinking of getting a dozen averys after I see them.

Yeah those Avery's are the ****!! I have 3 doz fullbodies, and the ones Jones is selling to me.
Hey we will have to get out scouting after the farmers get to the combining. We have alot of geese to shoot in my area, I drove past there over the weekend and man there are honkers on that rest area and the big roost that I hunted last fall and took 64 birds out of.

Decoyer · Jul 21, 2003

Tyler, just let me know when you are ready to start scouting.

I will be running 3 doz BF floaters and about 2 doz BF full bodies. I also have 13 to 20 doz shells but I am painting those as snows. Not sure if I need to by more BF full bodies for ND or not. I would like to have about 12 doz by next season's openner. Leo

Three doz. bigfoots(9 with windlife motion heads,and two motion bases),1 doz higdon full body stackables,2 doz G&H shells with some converted to motion shells like the stackables,1 doz real geese pro series sillys,and hopefully 1 doz avery full bodies.The whole works are flocked.

10-12 dozen Avery Full Bodies

Scratched the foots...to get Avery's

If the Avery's dont work out, I'm gunna go Hardcore

Last late season we hunted over 5 dozen bigfoots, 10 dozen real geese silos, and some days we would set up our 8 dozen carry lite mags. This summer we have got a couple more dozen bigfoots. We are going to sell the silos and shells and invest in more foots. We would have got em' already but kinda draggin our feet cause of the new Zinks. Those look pretty sweet but I'm waiting to have one in my hand first! We hope to run all bigfoots this year (10-15 dozen) Silohettes are getting to tough to push in the ground come December!

GooseBuster3 · Jul 21, 2003

Yeah sounds good Zach, I ment I have 3 doz Bigfoots, maybe two or three dozen more will be in the spread depending on how many Dan Larson wants to buy. We will have one kick *** spread! How many silly's do you have?

mallard · Jul 21, 2003

Anyone know when the avery decoys are going to be on the shelves?Sounds like everyone is going to buy them.Tyler,hold off on the bigfoots,I know of a good sale coming up on them(I dont want to mention where on the board,I want to have a chance to get a doz before they sell out).

Decoyer · Jul 22, 2003

I have 4 doz right now, I hope to have 6 doz by the fall.

goose · Jul 23, 2003

What kind of spreads are you guys runnging for snows?

GooseBuster3 · Jul 23, 2003

Between the Nodak crew we were running 600 custom northwinds and another 500 regular northwinds plus 152 snow floaters,4 ecallers, blinds the whole deal and the birds still did not respond well.

mallard · Jul 23, 2003

Tyler,Next year we have the CD player :beer: and probably more decoys.

are these land or water decoys?

GooseBuster3 · Jul 28, 2003

We would average 10-15 birds a day. We all thought that we would slaughter them with 1600 dekes, but I guess not.

hoosier dhr · Jul 29, 2003

Chris, its about 60% water. what do i need?
