Snow Goose Calls – A forgotten weapon
Virtually all of the goose calls on the market today are greater Canadian Goose calls. Both the short reed goose calls and goose flutes are almost all tailored to the sport of hunting Candians. However, as the blue and snow goose population explodes the sport of the snow goose hunting has emerged as a force. One of the big advantages is that blues and snows can be hunted in spring and late fall, giving hunters that added opportunity to be in the field.
The snow goose call is distictively different than the Canadian goose calls. First, the snow goose has a very distinctive call relative to the greater Canadian geese. The snow goose has a cackle that is in many ways not that much different that ducks. As a result snow goose calls are much more like duck calls than typical short reed calls. Quite simply snow geese do not have the vocalization capabilities of the big geese so the calls are not as complex. However, a good snow goose call like the PS OLT snow goose call will help when hunting these birds.

Hi
Does anyone out there have info on the P.S.Olt SB-29 Snow/Blue Goose call. I have one that I think I purchased back in the early 70′s.
I’ve been trying to gather some information on this call by searching the Internet, however, there doesn’t appear to be anything available about them. I believe they are relatively rare and I’ve only seen one come up for auction on Ebay over the last couple of years.
Any info you can offer would be appreciated.
Thanks
