I like field hunting for geese the best, you dont need a boat, wader or a dog. Decoy setup and take down is easy, but occasonally you do loose a goose. wheat or oat stubble works very well and corn stubble. Scout before season and try to get the fields they want to be in.

Decoys
full body decoys are awsome but more expensive, when you decide to get some get the Big Foot Decoys, we like them better than the Flambeu Judges, and Green Head gear Full bodies that we have. If you get shells get the Flambeu, the convertable heads are nice, do not get carry lite. we have repainted the carry lites the most, the paint doesnt like to stay on them. Starting out I would buy the Flambeu Magnum shells ($75) and a dozen silloets ($100) this will give you 18.

If you need a shotgun I would recomend the Benelli Nova 3.5" 12 Ga. In Max 4 camo it is only about $360, if you want the recoil reducer it is about $60 more. For shells we use Federal Speed Shock and Kent Faststeel BB at 1550 fps. For the premium stuff we shoot Remington Hevi shot 1 3/4oz of # 2s, B, and BB at 1300 fps and Kent Impact Tungston Matrix 2oz of #1s

For calls i would start out with a Big River flute, they are easy to use and sound good or their short reed. i also like the H.S. Slammer short reed.

good luck
