So This Is Christmas

Merry Christmas is such an infectious feeling I like to feel that way all year around.

So if you are visiting just before Christmas, just after Christmas or even here on Christmas day I am sure you will find something of interest for you and in the spirit of Christmas.

It may be said that Christmas is no longer a celebration but this must be spoken by people that have never had trouble closing their eyes on Christmas Eve in an expectation of what maybe left for them on the carpet under the tree.

I continue to look forward to the surprise on my Grandchild's faces to this day at Christmas events.

Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas

A Perfunctory Glance At Calling Geese Breeds

By Robert Ford


Hunting Canada Geese is prevalent in many parts of the world and the method of calling is important to the success of the hunters. Calling is important; however, for many hunters calling is also the most difficult part of the hunting process to master. Learning to call Canadian Geese is not solely about learning to make the necessary sounds but it also includes learning when to call and when to stop calling.

It is not enough to be an excellent hunter, as a significant amount of practice in making a goose-call is absolutely necessary, prior to a hunting venture. You can learn the right calling techniques by following the steps taught through tapes or by approaching reliable friends who have mastered the skill.

Make sure that you can blow a reed well enough before you can go to the hunting spot. Purchase a reed of a good quality which will help you learn to blow easily, and also make a sound more similar to the Canadian Geese. Learning to make a goose-like sound is quite demanding and hence you must be patient, till you master the process.

There are hunters who have had successful hunting tasks without having to shout like a goose. Some have taken along decoys to do the calling. Nevertheless, the calling technique definitely adds to the success of your game. Practice repeatedly so that your calls will indeed sound real enough to bring flocks of geese to you.

Calling is also important as it can help lure flocks of Canada Geese. Many hunters first start to become interested in calling after experiencing a hunt where many flocks flew near but not close enough to their blinds and they are forced to go home with nothing. Calling helps solve this frustration as calling can attract nearby flocks into the hunting range.

The calling pitch is really important. If it is exaggerated, the hunting is hindered. The farther the flock, the louder should the call be. As they come nearer towards the hunter's blind, the tone should become milder, so that a realistic effect is produced. Moreover, the calling style should be in conjunction with the activities of the flock.

These days, hunters come together to form a group and go together for hunting the Canadian Geese. This has actually helped them hone calling skills to a great extent. The benefit of working in a group lies in the fact that calling in groups seems more genuine and produces better results. But a skilled call from a good expert is comparatively not as effective. Plenty of hunters calling simultaneously lead the flock to believe that the sounds are coming from another flock.

Experienced hunters say that as the geese come closer, you can pretend to chew food to lure them more easily. The method of short-reed goose calling has proved to be successful with many of the Canadian Geese hunters.

When learning to call Canada Geese it is advised to learn two common calling sounds in order to attract a flock of Canada Geese. The two basic sounds are the cluck and the honk. In order to produce the clucking noise a short burst of air must be expelled into a reed while saying the word whit. This action will produce a distinct call. The honk meanwhile is also mimicked through a short burst of air followed by saying in a high to low note the sound whoooo-wit.
