1914 Goose Hunting

[GH-16]

Very interesting video. Seeing the holes they dug brought back memories of hunting geese with my uncle Jim when I was little kid " 5 years old "

Uncle Jim had three old wooden pickle barrels buried on a bluff above the reservoir where he was a member of the duck club who had the hunting rights. These barrels were barley big enough for a man to get into. When the geese came your way you would hunker down in the barrel & then let them have it when they came in range. All his friends shot model 12 duck guns back then. My how times have changed. Even as young as I was my uncle let me have a daisy BB gun unloaded and would let me swing on the geese as if I was one of the big guys.

No wonder I been hooked on hunting and shotguns my entire life.
