Goose hunt?

<< < (3/5) > >>

clewis:
Hi everyone, I really appreciated all the feedback some things to consider. The reason I ask is that I’ll have an opportunity in a few weeks to visit a James Bay community in northern Canada to “observe” a seasonal spring goose hunt and wanted to gift a functional bow and arrow set to their elders as a way to show my appreciation for the opportunity. That’s all.

Hawkdancer:
Might do better with an atlatl behind the spear, but the forked point would be effective.  Clewis, a bow and arrow set would likely be a very appropriate gift for the occasion.

A nice long barbed arrow would sure hinder their flying.

archeryrob:
Clewis, you may have more flexibility up there and another thing to practice before heading up there. "The skipping arrow" I am not sure how Canada works and if they have tribal land and don't have to follow the game laws, or not. This wold be really cool to try out and to show them. I've never tried it as shooting at resting waterfowl in Maryland is illegal.

if you got close enough, a shaft with fishing setup might work, but where we are- its ocean- and they head that way when spooked- i aint swimming 700 yards after a goose ;D
but a .223  and a head shot work well for some folk ;)
