Good morning all. I tied a search for this but haven't been able to find anything.

A friend will be travelling to Ohio to visit her father. Her father has gotten a nuisance permit to remove geese from his property. I mentioned bird bombs to scare them away. If you scare them enough times they get the point... or not. Killing a few here and there has the same effect (except now you have dead geese that will be picked up by the township). I digress. I have 0 experience hunting and was wondering what kind of loads (shot size) are typical on Canadians (geese). I was told that they could get as close as maybe 50 yards or so. I thought that was a bit far, but what do I know. My guess is one shot and then the rest fly away. My thought was if you know you only have one shot and one kill, you might want to try slugs.

Anyway, thanks for the help. -Coop
