🪶52 DAYS UNTIL EARLY SEPTEMBER GOOSE SEASON! 🪶

The countdown is on!

In just 52 days, we’ll be back in the fields doing what we love—watching big groups of honkers lock up over the decoys and creating memories our clients will never forget.

To everyone who’s already booked with us this September, thank you for choosing us. We’re looking forward to sharing some incredible mornings, great shooting, and an experience you’ll be talking about long after the season ends.

Right now, we’re building blinds, securing fields, and making sure every hunt is set up for success. The work behind the scenes never stops, and it’s all leading up to opening day.

If you’ve been thinking about booking an Early September goose hunt, now is the time. A limited number of dates are still available, and once they’re gone, they’re gone.

Here’s to early alarms, coffee in the blind, wings over the decoys, and another unforgettable September. We can’t wait to see everyone in the field!

📩 Send us a message to reserve your hunt before the remaining dates fill up.

People think guiding turkey hunts is just calling in birds and taking pictures. What they don’t see is the scouting, the sleepless mornings, the pressure of putting someone on their first gobbler, and the miles covered before daylight ever breaks. Turkey hunting humbles everybody eventually — guides included. But hearing that bird fire off at sunrise never gets old. 🦃🌄

Early September in New York marks the start of some of the most productive goose hunting of the year.

Our guided NYS early-season goose hunts in the Finger Lakes region are carefully planned and executed with one goal in mind: putting birds at your feet. We focus on resident populations, proven setups, and well-managed hunts that consistently position hunters in the action.

🔥 Prime window: September 21st–25th is consistently the BEST time to catch those molt migrators moving — if you know, you know.

✅ 15 bird limit per person
✅ Unplugged guns allowed
✅ Minimal availability — these dates go QUICK
✅ Military / Group Rates

If you’ve been waiting all year to knock the rust off and stack birds early, this is it.

📅 Early September dates are almost gone — especially that 21st–25th window.
