Spring Snow Goose Hunting in Missouri and South Dakota – Top Gun Guide Service

















SPRING SNOW GOOSE HUNTS



Spring Snow Goose Hunting Guides
Snow Goose Hunting
We are proud to say that we are one of few outfitters in  the country that hunt snow geese for up to eight months of the year in the midwest in the spring and fall.  We hunt Missouri, South Dakota, North Dakota, Kansas, and Saskatchewan. 

 

 Where: 

We start spring snow goose hunting in Mound City, Missouri or Kansas on Febuary 15th and hunt until March 20th depending on the weather and the snow goose migration. We travel with the snow geese, moving into central Nebraska, arriving in South Dakota around March 20th. We hunt North Dakota from April 10th to May 6th.  We finish the spring snow goose hunting season in Saskatchewan from April 20th to May 6th.  We have land leases in all these areas as we hunt in these areas in the spring and fall. We have been finding these areas and following bird patterns for years that gives a head start on the competion new to these locations.

Equipment and Group Numbers:

Each snow goose hunt consists of hunting behind 2,000 snow goose decoys, electronic callers, mp3 players, Bose speakers, we try hunt 6 to 8 hunters max per field depending on how the group numbers calculate. We hunt out of final Approach layout blinds. We will work with each group to make the hunt work. Dogs are allowed only in an exclusive groups.(6 to 8) We do not allow them in mixed parties.

Guides:

Hunters will benefit from dedicated snow goose hunting guides who scout fields daily and are willing to relocate in an effort to stay on top of feeding and migrating snows. We have a young energetic staff of snow goose hunting machines. My guides have proven to have the stamina and knowledge to put you on birds throughout the entire 70 day season. This is a grueling, muddy, and bloody 70 days that not many guides can finish. We all work together and have a system that has been proven year after year and we have the client base to prove it.  When the snows leave overnight we are able to do the same and be on birds the next afternoon. As a client we expect the same of you because sometimes we have to jump from one state to another on a days notice. This is for your benefit. We scout daily in the area we are hunting and we scout the next state we will be jumping to when the geese migrate north. We do everything in our power to get you on birds daily. 



What to bring and what to expect:

During the spring snow goose hunting season, most states have very liberal bag limits and no plug laws. The average daily harvest ranges anywhere from 20-40 birds, with the exceptional days exceeding 100+ birds. On a 3 day hunt we ask that hunters bring a case of shells (12 gauge 3” BB or BBB).  Facemask, knee high boots for muddy conditions and warm, waterproof clothing helps when you hunt sunrise to sunset. You can expect temps as low as 10 degrees to 70 degrees for a high. Bird cleaning and lodging are also available. (not included)

Always do your homework before booking a hunt so you know what to expect when you arrive.
