Our 4 day hunt with my brother and friends in ND went pretty good. Many roads were closed and that made scouting difficult. We were able to find some geese that we could get to and managed to kill a bunch of them. We only hunted 4 days and killed,22,25,47 and our biggest day of the year at 152 which also included a double banded 10.00 reward snow goose. Not a bad way to cap off an excellent season!

It will take me at least 2 weeks to clean and organize all my gear for next spring. It is a pile of gear and decoys that needs to be maintained.

Then I will pull the bass boat out. I will be fishing a couple of tournament trails again this season. Last year in the Silverado Pro-Am Bass tour I started out slow but came on strong. Hopefully I will make the right choices and end up with a solid performance!

We will start booking for the 2009-10 hunting season in late June/early July. We are going to make some minor changes.

Our South Dakota season was a huge success. The last week did have some tough weather conditions , but we were able to relocate and get on the geese again very quickly. We ended up recovering 961 geese for a daily average of slightly over 38 geese per spread per day. We had to work hard through tough conditions and it paid off big time for our clients. Our low day was 5 and our high day was an even 90. I appreciate everyone who came out and hunted with us. I know Ron,Phil,Andrew,Jeremy and Myself enjoyed the season and we are already looking forward to next year.

I am going to take a week off and then head back out to ND for 2 days of hunting with my brother,his son and a cousin. Hopefully it warms up and dries out some. It sounds like half the roads are washed out in certain counties. Either way…..it should be fun!
