Smackdown: Colorado Style

So I dithced work today with 4 others and set up for a goose shoot after this past weekends success. We set up in a field we hadn't hunted all year, but knew it was holding several hundred birds throughout the last several days. We threw all we had at them with a spread consisting of 20+ dozen decoys and 5 guys concealed in layout blinds. The first birds starting flying shortly after 7:45 and well before 8:30, we had wacked and stacked our 5 man limit of 20. Birds were literally dive bombing us. We had a flock of about 250-300 drop like elevators on us and worked our lungs over with non-stop calling and shooting for a little over 30 minutes at flock after flock. The hardest part of the hunt was picking all the birds up while others were trying to land ....

Give away what I can, and those that I take home, I turn into jerky. I've put together a damn good marinade for them. Can't even tell it's goose. Most people I know that shoot alot either take them to a packer and have sticks made, or they make their own jerky (ground and shot threw a cannon). I personally can't stand jerky thats shot through a cannon. I have a meat slicer at work that helps ease the process of making true jerky.

Sounds like a bunch of senseless killing to me. You guys are a bunch of murderers.
