DUH, Sure must be a WHOLE bunch of city people in here with NO real world smarts. Geese fly in a "V" formation for conservation of energy. They often fly extreme distances without stopping. They learned how to "Draft" long before NASCAR even exsisted. The "Lead" goose in the "V" breaks the air down and the other fall into place "Drafting" off the lead birds efforts. They switch of often so one goose does not get over tired. The length of the arms are determined by the number of birds. The longer arm often is indicitive of the best drafting conditions. One goose sub-species, the Pacific Brant is known to fly non-stop from thier fall staging waters near Ancorage AK to the wintering grounds in Bajha Mexico. A flight over over 2000 mi at a crusing speed of 50mph. Layoutshooter

Is that a crack or your artificial horizon?

Yes that is a crack. Unfortunately while waiting on an airliner to taxi past us, another one flew directly over us and popped a rivet. That bad boy hit at about 200mph and put a four foot long crack in the windshield. It has since been replaced. We later heard that the jet lost all of its skin over the Atlantic!

Actually, a FedEx truck in front of me in Ohio threw a rock from its tire and broke it. The mudflap was missing!

Well Rocket, it's like this. 1. I study the game that I hunt. The more you know the better you are at filling your freezer. 2. I hunt and associate with several waterfowl biologists. When I am around them I as questions, then I get answers and learn even more. 3. I have hunted in England, Japan, Michigan, Florida, South Carolina, Pennsylvania, Maryland, Virginia. 4. I have guided deer, duck, goose and grouse hunts in several states and guided trout and salmon Fly fishing fishing trips in Michigan and New York. 5. I was a Product Specialist with Cabela's when it was still a managment position. There was a very extensive test to pass for the position. I did not do as well as I hoped, I missed 3 questions out of the 150. I knew very little about horse tack.

As with everything that I do I try to do my best at it and that includes hours of study. I enjoy learning about waterfowl, they are amazing. Look for books by author and waterfowl photographer Worth Mathewson. He hunted with us when we did the Gander Mountain TV show called We Live Outdoors. He was working on a book about local hunting methods and wanted to see how we hunted. He is an expert on Pacific Brant.

Anything else? layoutshooter

No, that's quite enough. I was responding to the last sentence at the bottom of the post. "Who sang my generation" It's a question and a statement. I guess you didn't get that.....I didn't even look at the other part.

I have never got to see a Pacific Brant but have taken a few Atlantic Brant. They sometimes stray into the Great Lakes and we get them in Michigan waters of Lake Erie. We took one when we did the Gander TV show. Layoutshooter

Since you're a Cabella's movie star, were you in "Escanaba in da moonlight?"
