Default Snow goose help

Hey everyone!

I started making some videos hoping to help ya'll with snow goose hunting. If you could take a peek and tell me what you think, that would be great!

Just thinking in a heavy wind with the decoys bobbing around that hook in the top gromet of the decoy may come unhooked. Have you priced out doing it with the sillosock backbone style? It may save some time instead of bending all that wire for 800 decoys.

I tried the sillosock backbone style, I have made a few out of cloroplast, and this is faster. Plus to bend the two wires, it takes about a minute, ad to trace and cut out and trim the coroplast, takes 5. I opted for this and to bend the hook after wards so it doesn't slip out for convenience and economy. .

Thanks for the support guys! Any ideas what my next videos should be? Maybe duck and goose call tutorials?

Looks like not many people need help with snow geese haha.

I plan on making some hand calling videos, blind mudding ( for those that don't know how, and just general tips for the snows. I am no expert but I try to help any way I can, for the visual crowd.

Hard to tell what you get for volume out of the amp in that vid. There are a lot of amps available on E-bay and Amazon that are dirt cheap and powerful enough to to make good e-callers. You do need to be able to hear it across a 1/4 section of land, capability for trying to pull traffic birds may help some days as well, snows don't always cooperate on flying back to the previous spot they were in. Another thing that is nice, is being able to use a flash drive or an SD card in it, there are a number of amps out there that have that capability and can drive 4 speakers, along with remote controls. You can also use an emergency lighting battery instead of the AA packs.
I have to build another one for this year, ordered a Pyle plmr19w and 4 phsp5 Pyle horns, run that off a emerg light battery with the whole thing mounted into a double deep pistol case. I had one setup with the Pyle amp before, it puts out nice volume when needed, just put plugs in the box for jacks for the speakers.
We've used some similar to this one, worked well for 6 yrs now;

Put a couple of your dekes outside for a couple of weeks and let the wind and weather do its thing to it, to test your peg connections, that will prove them out for you.

I posted a new video about the Mossberg 500, not a review, just an intro.
