Vamaz, I have shot it through a jerky gun as well. But the goose will still need to be ground and mixed with something like pork. The goose alone is too dry by itself. I shot the jerky mix on the screen of my smoker. It doesn't take long to to dry (cook) as well.

Goose jerkey is good. I've only had it as ground, extruded jerky, but it was the same recipe as venison jerky.

Hey guys, I'm kinda of a novice with Goose meat but we do occasionally take one while hunting rabbit or squirrel and we push them up off of the pond. The few that I have had have been made into jerky and we love it. It is just basic so I am sure many others have better ways but we just slice it real thin and marinade for a few days in a gallon ziplock bag with a bottle of Dales meat marinade and liquid smoke(both available at Wal-Mart in the ketchup isle). It will be real salty but that is how we prefer it. Then dehydrate for a few hours, it does not take as long as venison or it will dry out and be real brittle.

I don't know about Canadian geese cause they don't make it down here but speckle bellies are great plucked and baked. Snows we breast out and smoke and they are good. Never tried them any other way

Wild turkey is superior to wild goose in my opinion. Never had a spec so cannot speak about them but both Canadas and Snows are good as jerky, snack sticks, or smoked.

i prefer the wild Turkey, Brest cut into steak fingers and then chicken fry. Love it The goose if made into a duck-goose gumbo. I was told once from a couple of buddies (I don't like duck) I told them that's all I got. And when the gumbo was done in a large pot, not a tablespoon of gumbo was left. And now they like goose and duck lol

My deer for this year. Our bow hunters call him "that 6 point with the tiny rack and the big body."

Hey Theo - shooting pet deer again I see? I like the pic. Nice thing about your situation is if you don't get a deer you can always shoot one of your steers. Steers are much better eating. IMO it would be a 'real funny' if you had a steer in your trophy picture instead of a deer - ROTFLOL. We miss your posts buddy.
On second thought it would be even funnier if you had one of your RES sticking in the deer's mouth with the caption "This is what happens to you when you mess with my RES!

This just Ticks me off! I was talking to my buddy a little while ago that has an elk farm in Wisconsin. He had not seen one of his prize bulls in a few days so he went looking. Some @&$*! had jumped his fence, killed the bull, cutoff its head and left the 600+ pound carcass to the scavengers. This guy gets a large percentage of his familiy's income from those elk! His family suffers, but somebody got a trophy!
Edit: And its a 10 foot high fence!

I know nothing about elk. This happened late September/early October. Do elk even have a rack that time of year?

Theo That a Thompson encore rifle? What caliber is it? Close - it's a Contender, with a 24" MGM barrel in 357 Maximum. That bailers twine is pretty strong. Nice! Actually, it broke twice.

Well at least that part makes sense in some weird perverted way then. My buddy makes several hundred dollars each year off each of his bulls. I was amazed to hear this. When the rack drops he harvests them and cuts them into 4 or 5 inch long pieces. He sells them as dog chew treats at dog shows. A one inch diameter by 4 inch piece sells for $40 and he always sells out.

I hope they caught them too but doubt it. Where do you even begin looking for the bad guys? At least they took the meat. These guys left it to spoil. If you figure a 600 pound elk dresses out at 50%, you are talking 300 pounds of meat at a minimum of $10.00 per pound. Lost income to my friend's family.

In your case, I hope it was some poor guy just trying to feed his family. Does not justify the act, but at least makes sense. In this case it was senseless killing. I am not a hunter but support those that do. In the absence of predators, if left unharvested, deer. etc are doomed to starvation due to population explosions. I love a good piece of vension, just don't have the heart to pull the trigger with all the semi-tame ones around my place!
