Is it a hammer or hammerless #6 ?

Hammerless. Nice gun. I've only seen it a few times but I have been promised right of first refusal on it. On tough geese I have had great success with a Jaccard tool and a simple marinade. I don't like to shoot birds I don't eat. I've had a very few that I passed on but a friend of mine's falcons don't care. Good luck next time out.

I've cooked a couple breasts kinda slow on the stove sliced thin with teriyaki sauce mushrooms , water chestnuts and bamboo shoots . They were edible but I kinda think its an acquired taste . |

I think most of the goose hunters I know out here eat most of the geese they kill. One factor may be what they (the geese) eat. Corn (5$ a bushel on a good day), beans (9-10$), and alfalfa (lots of $$ a big bale). There’s not a lot of golf courses around. Young one are like corn fed beef. Accent on young. Lots of jerky gets made as well. Older birds.

Wait a minute. You said they pick the corn out of the manure. No one said anything about eating the manure. Give us a break. What is the real truth about eating geese? Linda cooks whole geese and they are wonderful, no breasts for us. I've never smelled a hint of manure. By the way, no one ever got cold with a #6 frame ten as a blanket.

Spring turkeys that have spent the winter pecking corn from the manure piles at dairy farms here in the Northeast don't have a hint of foul flavor. If anything, the corn imparts a nice nutty flavor that wouldn't likely be possible at other times of the year when they eat bitter grasshoppers, ants and other bugs, mice, carrion, etc.
