There is no problem with hitting them on longer ranges that is what is was built for when using geese.. I have also tagged out the last 4 years.. Being able to understand how to use it is a big part of it.. Perhaps aiming at the waddles will help when shooting up at close ranges?? I always try to place it on top of the white on his head every time I get the chance to.. That works great out in the longer ranges so I also have nailed a few by lowering it to roughly where the beard comes out when shooting at a side shot only below his head and that has dropped a couple for me as well..
