Our goose season starts next Monday as well. It will be nice to be back out a field.

As for the size of bucks I agree that it depends a lot on your location and personal goals. We are lucky in MD to have very liberal back limits. We can shoot 10 does in archery so you get plenty of opportunities to sling arrows at does and pass up small bucks.

Dave,

Do you hunt teal on public or private land? I make it down to the shore a bit for Sika but have never waterfowl hunted there. Hunted Blackwater and Fishing Bay, tons of birds around there but I don't think I have the equipment to hunt that big water.
