I’ve found the best strategy is use the 12 g pump, let them land, shoot one on the ground and get them as they fly away, I get 6-8 geese each flock this way
What I've found that helps is that most fields work for goose hunting. I have tried many fields and most work. The big fields are better because it is easier to find geese you shot. Whenever I shoot geese they mostly come in during the morning. Their are fewer flocks during the day. You don't really need a stand or blind you can just lay down and it works just fine, though with stands/blinds you will get less hunting pressure not that it matters much for goose hunting.
For the newer players amongst us who are also looking to gain some pistol score. I found that the Anderson .22LR was just as good as the rifle variant on short ranges. I had 0 pistol score when I started goose hunting and unlocked the Rhino 454 the same day while also making a lot of money. Wouldn’t recommend the birdshot pistols, the Anderson was the most reliable and fun for me.
Flinter. You are amazing. I keep shooting the higher level for respawns and I shot my first ever Dimond. It was a level 5. Thanks for the advice. Love you and your videos. Keep up the amazing advice
Flinter, your voice has changed so much in one year, I was just watching an old vid, on geese hunting. The price for them has really gone up too. Please update beginner guides.
Ever since the goose and duck spawn nerfs way back, I have never been able to find a single goose/duck in playing multiple hours in game. Before the nerf, it was so much easier.
The other day I shot 2 diamond geese and the first one was max 9 trophy score and the second one was a 8.60 and then the day after I shot a 8.60 again on my own map
After watching this I went goose hunting for the first time. His first spot yielded a diamond on my 5th flock. Btw, flock frequency is much lower on xbox. Layed in the field from 500-1300 and had 6 flocks.
If somebody buys the 2019 edition of this game (It's abou half cost of the whole package) they get enough DLCs to make one whole setup like this and then they can spend around 24 000 to make another one.
Idk if its true but i think the 20 guage semi auto is really good for geese as well i feel like the pellets spread more so its easier to get more than one with one shot
Within 20 minutes of playing revontuli the first time I got 4 gold geese and a diamond goose. I just happened to see a small flock of them flying over low,maybe 10 geese total. I was pretty happy with that
Can confirm. comes with 30 decoys and 1 blind. the goose caller you have to buy for 6000. the shotguns are free. so essentially you only need to pay 6000 to start this if youve just bought the dlc.
I don't know what I'm doing wrong but before the Mississippi reserve update I could get plenty to land or atleast circle before I bought the goose dlc, I bought it just to get the birdshot but now I see so many flocks yet they just ignore me.. I have tried moving spots due to the hunting pressure and have tried multiplayer with friends( which I hear has issues on its own) but nothing seems to work. Has something changed ? I'm hunting 9am onwards and using the ground blind and decoys with the dlc. I actually have more geese fly over my old spot in schonfeldt strawfields (maybe 2-3 Flocks every 10 minutes) but they aren't interested at all
I have the same problem. Now I'm just using the .22 and shot them when they fly over me. I get like 5 to 7 per magazin. It's not super easy but works well.
Actually, all the items come with the DLC for free except for the goose caller so it only costs you 6k once and you can make that money back in one flock
noob question here.. about goose/duck hunting, how you deal with the hunting pressure? i lost lots of need zones in two series of shots because first i hunt mallard and second i hunt rabbit both with colt45. do you wait a pack of goose in an empty (of need zones) area? do the goose keep coming even with the very purple hunting pressure?
Why do most of the flocks I encounter go alert once I try to call them down? Is it because of the hunting pressure? I am just sitting in my blind calling them and they usually go from calm to alert as they descend.
I found a massive level 9 red deer that was without a doubt gonna be diamond. I called it in and he was very close but when I went for the double lung I accidentally had my 30-06 zeroed for 300m so I hit it in the spine and I lost the diamond rating...
I had a diamond whitetail come in close and I had my bow shot him about 15 yards picked him up he dropped right away and I had 600 grain arrows in my bow
hey flinter im confused the other day i saw a 6 hard goose but u said the max was 5 medium for a diamond i coudnt shoot it though becasue there was to many geese and i lost it
Tw1x5000 in my opinion you have easier movement while aiming in the tripod. It just feels smoother when turning for a shot. Also when you pop out of the layout blind to shoot the geese tend to notice you before you take your first shot. Where in a tripod stand you can usually aim all you want without spooking the geese. That’s just my opinion though.
The most I've seen from a level 4 is 1300 Gold. I normally get 1-2 4s every 3-4 flocks and 2-4 3s in every flock. I've shot probably close to 200 geese and havent even seen a level 5 or a rare yet. Everything has been common or uncommon.
I set up the decoys and lay in the coffin blind as shown in a location shown. I use the caller. The geese Never come close. Always stay high and and over to a side. What gives?
jacob H0B0 exactly. The reason i asked is because whenever me and my cousin goose hunt in multiplayer we find 1 at a time but when he’s solo he finds flocks at a time
I discovered that using the 22 on geese is bad luck, I shot two diamond geese with shotguns but got a troll 8.5 and a level 4 8.5 goose by shooting them with a 22
Also you’re lucky that I’m starting over on PC from PS4 tho lol. I was level 60 on PS4 and I remembered this was a quick way to get money. Since this is an older video I doubt someone else would’ve answered
I think the dlc you talk about comes with game on PS4. I had layout blind, 15 decoys and Strecker 20gauge, Caversham 12gauge, recurve bow from start and they are labeled as dlc but i didn't pay for them. .22 also i think.
So i have a lot of gamer friends. I like all kids of games. Huge oldschool halo fan, i like the jurassic park building games, i loved the 3rd or first person single player action games. Last of us, dead space, horixon zero dawn, mad max and days gone, god of war(s) resident evil(s), splinter cell, mass effect, dark souls, halo, elder scrolls, dying light, subnautica, i dig some vania/rogues like ori, salt and sanctuary, dead cells, i mean, you name it, i play it. And when people ask me that lofty question… What are the best games of all time. I have quite a few but, the hunter: call of the wild, is always up there. Right at the top section of my list. And so many hardcore gamers have no idea it exists.
I’ve found the best strategy is use the 12 g pump, let them land, shoot one on the ground and get them as they fly away, I get 6-8 geese each flock this way
I use the 12 pump, grankins, 20 guage and 2 22s, the entire flock didn't get a chance lol
I do the same😅🤣
Use a tripod stand so that the stay in shotgun range for a longer time.
I use the 10 Guage

Yes thank you I just brought this dlc and heaps more today as they are half price I will definitely do this thanks for the tip 🙏💪
And yess I’m a new player in 2022 and I’m 3 days in but I love this game so much can already tell I’m gonna put in a lot of hrs in

Adding hunting dogs to this game would be incredible.
Until a diamond buck gets mad and spears him in the head lmao

Nice job dude

Nice!!!
🎉🎉🎉
3 years later and still a nice achievement
I've personally had more luck hunting on the north side of the map than the south side.
Flinter. You are amazing. I keep shooting the higher level for respawns and I shot my first ever Dimond. It was a level 5. Thanks for the advice. Love you and your videos. Keep up the amazing advice

I want to thank you this both helped me get money quick while also getting my first diamond. Only hour of doing this and I got a diamond, Thank you!
The first goose that came in after I did this was level 5. Thanks Flinter for helping me get my 5th diamond.
That happened to me today diamond goose as my 5th diamond
I just wanna say I love your thumbnails.
Nice guide! Tried it out asap, works more than great :D
Today I got a malinistic red deer. Something flinter has been trying to get for a while

Thanks for this man!!
U should do a vid on classic vs cotw.
That is a very cool idea
DD33 has done it on he's channel if you want to see that video
Magnus Og Ola Playz I did but a little older and wanted his new opinion
Love you content keep up the good work I have been watching since 16k I think
THANK YOU! This guide actually got me my first diamond after only 10 mins of goose hunting!

You spot your geese I just go bam bam
any set up i hunt i kill like 3 geese an hour but when they first came out id kill like 200-250 an hour
What location are you in
You are the most helpful flinter
Wondering why they don’t land when I hunt them the usually are flying pretty far away and never come in
whats up man, love the videos and was an easy sub for me. whats the guitar music in the background? keep it up brotha
Idk if its true but i think the 20 guage semi auto is really good for geese as well i feel like the pellets spread more so its easier to get more than one with one shot
Thank you man I just shot a diamond and a brown hybrid in the same flock
I’m new to the game and I’ve been following your tips and I already got my first diamond at level 13
I got lucky and got a piebald diamond mallard but I forgot to taxidermize
I wish I could do this but don’t have any dlc packs 😥 good video tho
If you’re on PC just wait for a steam sale. You’ll get them for pennies.
Cmdr Pertanga I’m on Xbox sadly
Within 20 minutes of playing revontuli the first time I got 4 gold geese and a diamond goose. I just happened to see a small flock of them flying over low,maybe 10 geese total. I was pretty happy with that
How do I get the rovolti
Sorry I just started playinv
Nvm
Hey Flinter! I love ur vids and keep em' coming!!! I was wondering if there was a way to maximize ur chances to get a diamond? Thx!!!
What .22 and scope is that? I see the load out at 9:36
Hey flinter do you have to set your decoys up in a need zone or can you set up pretty much anywhere?
Guide worked! Got a diamond goose on my second day of trying it!

@@dobbzy1190 awesome!! Thanks!
Any tips for aiming and hitting them with the 10g shotguns on PS4 for a new player I seem to be a terrible shot!😫😆
If you shot the 10 gauge that much in real life your arm would be hurting
The cacciatore works pretty well for me too i prefer it when their close because of the 6 shots that u get
Thx for the upload do u know if the trophy lodge fixed plz reply 👍
they are
Alright thx Dude
You made my day and you the best call of the wild you tuber I know
Actually, all the items come with the DLC for free except for the goose caller so it only costs you 6k once and you can make that money back in one flock

Does hunting pressure effect geese?
Hopefully get to see and duck one soon *fingers crossed* great vid buddy ❤
Do you hunt the geese at night too?
Why do most of the flocks I encounter go alert once I try to call them down? Is it because of the hunting pressure? I am just sitting in my blind calling them and they usually go from calm to alert as they descend.
I just watched this video and decided to try it out to make extra money and the first goose in the first flock was a diamond
Are tree stands a good idea for geese hunting??
Sup Flinter, what time do i need to put for ? I try 7am but nothing :(
I found a massive level 9 red deer that was without a doubt gonna be diamond. I called it in and he was very close but when I went for the double lung I accidentally had my 30-06 zeroed for 300m so I hit it in the spine and I lost the diamond rating...
I had a diamond whitetail come in close and I had my bow shot him about 15 yards picked him up he dropped right away and I had 600 grain arrows in my bow
Do you lose your decoys and lay down blind between single player sessions if left on ground?
Hope you got yo ur answer by now. But no. You keep them and they stay where they are. If in multiplayer then they just get returned to your storage
Tried joining a savannah server of yours today on multiplayer, as soon as I joined, you left, lol
That is a big oof
There’s a great spot next to the first one it’s great for fallow deer roe deer and geese
Is mallard hunting in Layton as profitable as this?
How do u range in your gun on Xbox?????
RB , you need to have the perk activated
Hey you really gonna let the Flantress dye your hair blue?😂
hey flinter im confused the other day i saw a 6 hard goose but u said the max was 5 medium for a diamond i coudnt shoot it though becasue there was to many geese and i lost it
I bought the dlc it comes with a lay out blind and 30 decoys
Tripods are better than blinds.
@@PoopaChallupa why?

Definitely gonna do this to reclaim my diamonds i lost because of lodge glitches
I still don't know what map is best for geese. Which map are you on in this video? Great video btw!!!
This is Hirshfelden
I don't have the wild goose chase but would it still be good to grind with a 12 gauge?
You wouldn’t be able to get them to break and land without the decoys that come with the wild goose chase dlc.
The most I've seen from a level 4 is 1300 Gold. I normally get 1-2 4s every 3-4 flocks and 2-4 3s in every flock. I've shot probably close to 200 geese and havent even seen a level 5 or a rare yet. Everything has been common or uncommon.

Aye I got my first ever Dimond in 20 minutes at the first spot you showed us thanks heaps
If you don’t have the 10 gauge, what would be the best alternative? I’ve heard the 20 ga buckshot is good, but I’m not sure.
Ok, so 20 ga buckshot is not ethical. I don’t even have 12 ga birdshot unlocked, but I’ve also heard it’s not as effective as 20 ga. Is that true?
Goose decoys do come with dlc. thx for the vid tho i havent done any small game hunting and i didnt know geese were worth so much
I have a question is the spawn rate on console vs pc different because on computer I got hundred of geese but in the same spot on console I got 1
What shotgun is that and how do I get it and the 22 sorry I'm new.
Just bought the goose dlc. But I'm wondering about the hunting pressure? Won't it become insane on just those two spots? And does it matter?
I have the same question
I made 15k as I was watching this. this method is still op
is there a certain time that more gooses come in on does it not mater
I’ve gotten 3 diamond geese from the second spot, been hunting it for months
Thank Flints great vid for goosing.

How do you get the decoys for the geese
What map do u want them to add
I've been trying to shoot down geese, but they don't get hit at all, even if they're close enough in range...Do I need a dlc to be able to hunt them?
Yes. You need the goose DLC. I forget what exactly it’s called
Also you’re lucky that I’m starting over on PC from PS4 tho lol. I was level 60 on PS4 and I remembered this was a quick way to get money. Since this is an older video I doubt someone else would’ve answered
You predicted the future of the bloodhounds 😳
What about goat hunting silverridge peaks?
Layout blinds are finicky on console. When you select your weapon you make the jumping noise and scare the geese
Is the .22 in a dlc or just in game? Cause I hadn’t found it yet
Dlc, first weapon pack
