Hey guys, help me settle an argument with one of my employees:
We're working near my house today on a roof. As usual this time of year, there's a couple hundred geese out in the field next to us. We start making the usual cracks about, "if I only had a shotgun right now," or "man, you don't need no shotgun, you could throw a rock in there and get three birds," blah, blah, blah. Usual man-banter near wildlife.
One of my guys, an avid game bird hunter, says I should bring my AR-7 with me to work tomorrow and "get us some geese for supper." I relate to him a story from my youth where it was my job to kill our chickens one day, so I grabbed my 22. I musta shot the first chicken 14 times before I gave up and started chasin'm down with the axe. I told the co-worker a 22 would never work, but he insisted one good shot to the head would put a goose down.
I don't have any experience with geese, but I'm skeptical. Don't want to get popped by the man during an "experiment", so I was just wondering if one of you guys knew? Will a goose go down with a shot to the head with a 22?
