    So,
    From what I can read, its ok to Shoot a goose with a bow. I'm on my last week before neighbors move in and lose my setback distance for ANY hunting and Geese are coming to my property daily.


    Anyone ever shoot a goose with a bow?

    I have not taken geese, but have shot pheasants with flu-flus and blunts.

    It seems like a turkey rig (broadhead with a stopper) would be best. Use flu-flu arrows if aerial shooting is to be done.

    I'm looking to use my broadheads. I'm not going to do areal shots. Where I would be shooting, soft grass is my backdrop and I'd be hitting them after they land near decoys.
    Right now, I could wait in a blind or my deer stand (Corn removed weeks ago) and have a goose come to me much more likely than a deer.

    A number of years ago tred Barta did a show with that angle. Be ready to have a good decoy set and good cover.

    Good luck
