Destry, don't be envious, smaller geese make for range estimation errors. We do not see Lesser's around here very often either. In fact we had no idea there were Lesser's until they were down. Since we are used to standards and giants we misjudged the range. What we thought was a 40 yard overhead pass was more like 25 or 30. Mine were hit really hard, one of them too hard :-( Good patterns though :-)
