    Sorry @EeeBees!
    That is alright, gadgetman ... look like they are made from paracord ... one thing about paracord lanyards, you can always unravel the braiding and replace your bootlaces ... I am of course very prejudiced towards the real thing ...

    Massive reccomends goose noose lanyards

    When I need to get @Rushy's attention I just yell at him, should work for other geese no?

    Lies. You're fellow Waikato swillers and just goose each other for attention.
    There are only three types of people in this world. Those that can count, and those that can't!

    Clearly a jealous streak there GM. We will shout you a Waikato at the Toby shoot.

    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    It is not how you yell but rather what you yell that is important Gibo. For example "Dinner" and "Waikato" even at a barely audible level will evoke much more action from me than "Prick" or "Arsehole" at the top of your voice. After much analysis I have concluded that it is all about the presence or not of the "really don't give a fuck" factor.

    don't be frightened to have a crack on your own tho most of my best goose days were just me and the dog/dogs
    a flute will only have you blowing a blood vessels on certain calls like fast clucks.
    but you can still call geese in close with them,sometimes all that's needed is a ocassional cluck or heronk to keep them coming so don't feel you cant do it with a flute.

    Ive got the whole kit&caboodle including 2x electronic ones(wait for the GSPFbite).he actually has my custom short reed one from a mutual acquaintance -I can blow a basic hailbut he does miles better service to its quality. ive also got a feeding caller which if the others are hailing etc can be useful periodically for a little background sound.very important not to overdo it though.If im in any doubt illstay stuumand await thew order to fire the opening volley.
    speaking of geese -have local farmer call me last night -has a mob of canadas ripping up feed paddocks and shitting in stock troughs-hi ho hi ho to bust goose ass i go!!
    am i lookin forward to it-do politicians tell lies?????

    Hear, hear, @gsp follower ... it is like learning to yike at spikers, roar like a stag and so on ... nothing like calling up a Callie or two with your rendition of chi cha go ...!!! I think the duck one which my friend and I used on Parries sounded artificial ...
