[QUOTE="JSHKS, post: 1492146, member: 103581"] Try and get some movement in your spread. Since you have snows and Canada's will decoy to them as well. Some type of dowel rod about 3" long, plastic trash bags kitchen size, rubber bands. Get some air in your bags, twist the end, fit over the dowel and wrap the rubber band around it. Shazam a goose decoy. Use your imagination, they are pretty stupid when it comes down to it. Shot, your T is plenty big, maybe too big. Pattern it. I tried lots of large to huge size years ago. Large shot left a lot to be desired, bad patterns. I use BB or BBB on everything as far as water fowl, ymmv. Splurge on a box of black cloud, just don't shoot them real close. I was amazed at what a mess it makes of a large geese under 25 yards. Just learning to call? Get one you have faith in and use it, I have old Lohman calls from way back. Call at the tips, which I mean wing tips. Not in their face, call wise birds will pick you out quick. Also if your new and not confident, less can be more. Have fun, whackem and stackem. [/QUOTE]
