Thanks. I spend a bit of time around Ashburton lakes and there's a few Canada geese there. They're happy floating around fairly close so thought I might take 1 or 2 with .22 then
Have never eaten goose so wanted it to be good time of year when first try it. I've read the breasts are ok cubed up and skewer on bbq

Don't think you can legally use a .22 unless your on private land no hate just don't want to see anyone in the shit.
