Flighted duck and Geese

Our waterfowl are shot during the late afternoons, as they come in to feed on harvested grain fields. Meticulous planning starting months before your arrival will ensure that your butt is placed right under the flight line.

The variety of birds on a duck and goose shoot is incredible, where shooting seven species of waterfowl by a single gun in an afternoon is not out of the norm. The birds range, amongst others, from the gigantic spurwinged goose which can reach a weight of up to 25 pounds with a wingspread sometimes reaching six feet, to the Egyptian goose, the white faced duck, the yellowbilled duck which is about the size of a mallard, to the swift little red billed teal.

Butts are needed to keep you out of sight of the geese which has extraordinary eyesight. The butts can be either from cammo netting, built from straw bales, or dug into the ground. We make use of suitable decoys to lure the birds closer to the guns.

The shooting is normally fast, with the wide variety of birds coming in at different flight speeds and heights, making for some challenging shooting.
