kt,

I hope your trouble with knowing when to do it relates to geese and not something else. LOL The way I look at calling the shot on geese depends on who I am hunting with. If they are good shooters, I do not hesitate to call longer shots in the 30 and 40 yard range. If they are terrible shooters, I will not call the shot until the birds have their landing gear down (i.e., usually within 20 yards or less). If I am hunting only with my dad, we take a lot of shots that a lot of people would let pass. Sometimes, you just have to look at how the birds are reacting. On tough days, I try to take whatever I can get.

Good luck the next time you go out.
