My son wanted to go out today for an afternoon of early goose season here in KY. I hustled to get off work in time to make it back home, get my gear and drive the 30 minute drive.
Needless to say it was worth it. We each shot a goose and they both were banded. This is the first jewlery for either one of us. He had a good idea.

Nice job. I personally haven't gotten into feather angling but my elder son loves it. Great to see the two of you having a great time together. Keep smiling!!!
Congrats!! Nice pic!:)
Hey good deal, where the numbers very close togather? Are they fish and wild life bands? Congratulations this is something neither one of you will forget for a long time.
Nice I also went with my friend Greenhead the DuckMan we killed 10 on the first outing and havent been back since the farmers here in Oklahoma hate them resident geese and gladly will let us hunt farmer is happy they havent been back to his field since we shot em up
It is absolutely about getting the youth outside in any form we can. Congrats on the bling and keep up the together time.
Yes they were close in number, off by 31. The band says Maryland.Quote:

His two favorite things are waterfowl and crappie fishing. He is a sophmore at college now and he is going to schedule his spring semester as to not interfere with the spring crappie season. He is taking an accounting class and said there is no way he would become an accountant. I asked why, thinking he didint' like the class, he replied that it would interfere with the spring crappie fishing.
nice pictures and sound like he loves the outdoors

That's great....Congrats to you and your son.
Been a CPA since 1993. Wish I was a smart as him when I was a sophomore in college. :( :DQuote:
