Ross’ geese take the lead in this issue. Likely one of the most popular birds for wall mounting, the beautiful little Ross’ is a lot more common than it used to be. We document the increase in Ross’ geese and their great expansion into the Central Flyway. Grab your shotgun and come along for the ride!
Hang on for a wild tale with Jack Hirt as he and his crew get mobbed by friendly Ross’ geese on the prairie, then come back to earth with Patrick Wallace’s sobering reminder that Montana grizzly bears haunt plenty of that state’s duck hotspots. Wallace explains how to keep all your parts when hunting in the land of giant bears. Ever wished you could hunt with an expert? Gary Zahn recounts being paired with shotshell guru Tom Roster on a recent California duck hunt. On the lighter side, Mike Wilson explains how a ducking obsession can ruin a relationship.
Russian waterfowl rules? We’ve got ‘em. Duck speed? Got that too—at least we’ve got 15 different solid opinions. Read on in the April/May issue. Available on newsstand, print subscription and via digital app. www.waterfowlermag.com.
