A limit of honkers, several blues and ducks.This picture is the … [Read More]

I would like to thank all of you that hunted with us this year. The 2009 didn’t live up to the hype however it was still pretty good. Missouri snow goose hunting was the best we have ever had there. A couple of snow storms raised a little havoc with us but overall we shot … [Read More]

Although we did get a bunch of snow. It is melting with a high of 35 today and 37 tomorrow I don’t think much will be left by the weekend. There is still loads of snow geese in the area. The snow didn’t push them out. Yesterday we shot 79, 23, and 20 in the … [Read More]

I thought we were going to luck out. Forecast was for a 9-14 inches of snow on Monday however at 8 pm Monday night the weather hadn’t hit. When we woke this morning we had snow. The extended forecast looks like a warming trend which should have the snow melted by the weekend.

So far weather conditions for our South Dakota hunts have not been great. Hunting has been slow. Today it appears that some juvy and Ross moved into the area. There was a lot of snow geese migrating north. Tomorrow I’m hoping will be a decent day. Monday forecast is for more snow. Hopefully they miss … [Read More]

Although gloomy with a drizzle today we didn’t get the massive amount of rain they were forecasting for us. This should help our snow goose hunters.

Today was the first day of our South Dakota hunts. Snow goose hunting was slow today but the weather was less than ideal. Tomorrow we are supposed to get 2-4 inches of snow with wind gusts of 40 mph. Fields are very muddy…bring waders.

There is going to be a ton of rain rolling in Sun-Tue. Forecast amounts are 5 inches over those days.

Today is our last guided hunt in MO for the season. All we lost birds on the refuge but hunting success remained high. Yesterday almost everything that left the refuge didn’t come back.

Our move to South Dakota is approaching fast. Snow goose numbers in Mound City remain good. More typical of the last few years there are more bird that come back to Squaw Creek National Wildlife Refuge than leave it in the morning. The returning snow geese are not giving us much of a look. The … [Read More]

Snow geese are migrating in big number today.

The 2nd storm of the year swept through the area on Sat. Snow goose hunting prior to this storm has been good. Since the storm hunting has slowed. There are mainly adults with very few juvys in the snow goose flocks flying over our decoy spreads. Forecast for the next week looks very promising with … [Read More]

Snow goose hunting was average today. Several fields were in the 30’s. Tonight we are suppose to get 2 inches of snow but this coming week looks to be very good weather. We have space if anybody knows someone that wants to do a last minute hunt.

Lots of birds here right now. Hunting remains good. We ran two fields yesterday. The full day field shot 40 and the other had 24 by 10 am when they left the snow goose decoys. Funny thing happened while the guys were setting the decoys in a field. A ross goose flew into the field … [Read More]
