In my opinion, it is movement that gets snow geese down on the decoys. Make
sure to utilize lots of decoys that mimic the spastic motion of the
snowgoose. I like custom windsocks that have supports in them for days you

The lighter the wind, the further upwind in the decoy spread is where the hide should be. On calm days, it seems that the birds want the upwind side of the rig to outcompete the main feeding flock.

With snowgeese, it is important to take the shot as it is given. Large flocks can be difficult to finish, so if a small flock offers a beautiful, feet down opportunity, I would take it, rather than waiting for the large flock possibly finish.

Another tip with white geese is to space the decoys out, it gives the illusion of having a much larger flock feeding without having to put out quite so many decoys.

When hunting snow geese over water, it is wise to utilize the extra 30 minutes of legal shooting time allowed under conservation orders. Often, this is the magic hour as tired and thirsty migrator flocks are looking for a roosting area for the evening.
