Field Hunting Goose Spread Patterns

Below you will find a good video describing the X and Horseshoe field patterns for hunting geese. Notice how the patterns are designed to funnel the geese into a small area where you have your blinds. When setting your goose decoys always remember how the geese are going to react to the spread and allow for the best shots to take place right in front of your goose blind. If the geese are reacting to your spread in a way that doesn't produce high quality shots, don't be afraid to move your goose decoys around to encourage the birds to finish in good range. Sometimes it is only a small change that will concentrate the landing area that geese prefer.
