I hunt in Maryland and was wondering if I should add some Lessers to the rig, been thinking about it for a while,

What do you guys think,

Good Idea or bad idea

everybody says yes, regardless because they add so much movement, but up north here in NH, even the lifesize geese are a little bit smaller than the geese we shoot so ( my buddy nate has a picture of a goose next to an oversize floater and they are like the same size) but you may see smaller geese than we do.... i haven't seen them in person so i don't know how much smaller they are.

Rob and Rusty have a bunch of Lessers in their rig and I have seen the results. When you stand back and look at their set-up, in my opinion it makes their rig look more realistic. I liked them so much that I ordered 5 dozen for my rig.

Michael,



I hunted GHG Lessers in my rig last season. They have outstanding movement plus they are about the exact size of our migratory geese. The GHG Lesser Full Bodies are about 5% over size. They worked perfect in my spread last season. I am adding a few more dozen of the GHG FFD Lessers.

Default Great Idea

We hunt here on the lower with the lessers. We have two dozen mixed in with the hunter series and two dozen shells. Seems to work great for us.

Wayne,

I thought you sold all the lesser you had left to me ;-)

I like them a whole lot. If you look at geese in the field there are always different sizes, shapes and shades. There are not many around in MD, but I feel that it makes a better spread.

Mike- You could always call me. I have a few and would be more than willing to add them to your spread. Actually mine are on order, the decoy stork is supposed to arrive in late August.
