I think sometimes when you either spook geese or they aren’t coming into your decoys/a need zone then they just become unable to be shot or spotted, since sometimes you can actually see them loading in and become able to be spotted and lured into the decoys
@@Rooster_Gaming might wanna note tho that if you were hunting those ducks/geese right where you spotted those whitetail in their zone then there’s a good chance you deleted that zone, but seeing as there were deer all over it shouldn’t be too much of a problem.
He may not have noticed it, but on that golden eye, he got a.... ASS SHOT. Also I loved this video probably one of my new favourites, thanks for a great time 💪
i have any issues with the cotw companion app.... i ended up getting the COtW guide app and have found it to be way more accurate...for your golden eye in the guide app it shows diamond as 1230.. hope this helps
Birds do leave disturbed vegetation, but if they're geese/ducks don't bother attempting to track them. Birds are difficult to track, so keep the disturbed vegetation and the latest tracks highlighted if it is a rare and attempt to find a need zone. As for geese/ducks that you can't spot... they're just too far away, even if they're in render distance. You can spot and shoot at a goose for example and it can fly out of spotting range to where you can no longer spot them. But they are actual flocks in your game that you can hunt.
The strategy I use is I go to the island at the bottom of the map, chose a body of water, then consolidate 20 decoys of each duck species on the map. I use only male decoys so they stack better. The ducks will land near the decoys and always in the same general spot near the decoys.
At around 23.00 CotW pulls off one of this hilarious surprises - like shooting 3 deer (with 3 crap shots) from different herds/drink zones and find them 300m away all dead together within 10 metres of each other. Or hooning along on the ATV and finding a corpse just lying by the road from something you could not find hours earlier. Hard to top that Goose falling out of the sky though.
Rooster, my wife used to call them Canadian Geese and would ask her how she knew whether it was born in Canada or in America. She would give me a blank look and I would remind her that they are Canada Geese, not Canadian Geese 😂😂😂
Hahaha yup. They attacked my grandfathers truck once and put a big ass dent in it. Those wings are STRONG. You on the east coast? I grew up in upstate NY, about 30 minutes south of the border. Also, I'm absolutely playing prehistoric hunt next week!
The phantom bird was one of my first animals 😂 I got a lucky shot over a lake on what i thought was a duck, and it fell, hit the water, and disappeared. I was flabbergasted 😂😂
hey rooster! I am proud to be sayin this on ur channel.. I got my first diamond two days ago, it was a turkey 4.68(I think) and I hope to see more awesome videos like this in the future, good luck!
Questions for possible video How many times can you shoot in one spot? Which spots are good to shoot at? How far to place a tent? Gun and ammo types? Visibility level explanation Skills and perks for beginners vs experienced Can you lay down mixed breed traps or not
The birds that appear buggy are real it's just like a coding thing that makes them not spot able until the group is broken which I think is by setups but I'm not 100% sure
that thing with the birds being not real happens ALOT! even times when i spot it while its flying, swtich to a gun and the birds glitched and you cant kill it. I fixed it a couple times by spotting a different animal and quickly look back and they become real lol
@@Rooster_Gaming thank you good sir ! Been playing for like a 2 years now still havnt had much diamonds or anything but ima keep grinding ! Love the content an find it very helpful an entertaining !
@@Rooster_Gaming sometimes this game can be so fustrating Just a few days ago i tried to get some bison on silver ridge peaks with my 7mm one was perfectly broadside i took the shot and the 7mm bullet didn't gone thru the skin there was nothing in its way but it Just hit the skin that covers its lungs
My only complaint is how much you talk to pablo lol love the vids man you got me back into the game Wish you shared the advice fella gave ya bc I just bought the dlc and would like to give this a shot
In regards to the phantom goose, it could be one of two things, too far out of range to spot, or ambience,. If the latter, I agree it's silly to have ambience of an animal that you're able to hunt in game.
As a duck hunter I would say this is not very accurate the way the shot gun reloads the rang of the 20 gauge the way he shoot’s no lead but still fun to watch
Hey I don’t play HCOTW but I do duck hunt and from what from what Ik about it from watching it it’s pretty realistic so the best thing to do would probably be put all ur decoys in the water unless they’re the ones made for land or unless ur in a field which u would probably still want the ones for land so put all ur decoys in the water, use calls and use a duck blind not a tree stand😂
Hunting birds was actually pretty fun. Do you guys have any recommendations of other maps to hunt birds on?
hey Rooster just to let you know piebald mallards are common
@@TacticalHuntsman yeah :/ which is such a shame
@@Rooster_Gaming atleast i have a chance to get a piebald
Play on the New Zealand map again great vids with that and even maybe a collab on it as well.🎉
The new Zelma’s map has alot of geese in the fields
Finally some revenge for ruining my garden
The days you upload are the best days. Thanks. Watching your vids takes a lot of stress off my back
Glad to hear it 💪
As a Canadian I give you my respect, those things are...scary... Dont mess with Cobra Chickens kids
Friggin right bud full sqad of em can take out just about anything eh
was coming here to say the same thing XD
I feel you, brother my school soccer field is a nightmare
Try chargeing back at them. they run like cowards
every bird is scary
swans and geese tho 🫣
I just got my first diamond yesterday it was a blue wildabeast and also it’s a great day when rooster uploads
Agreed
Congrats!
I did too jine was a feral goat😊
Mine was a blue wildebeest too.
A wildebeest as a first diamond is impressive. Congrats man.
Brooo I wasn’t ready 💀 “so what we’re gunna do now. Is just start F****** Blasting* 💥💥💥 😂

I must say you have some next level thumbnails!! They really are a step above the rest! Very enticing!
Thanks! Glad you you like them 💪
Congrats on the piebald mallard! They look sick as hell. Love the content bubba 💪🏼
Thanks!
They’re not rare at all. They’re an uncommon at best
@@unluckyzero6530 but they still look good🕺
@@Harryyydagoat I agree. They do!
Let’s go
Another rooster video🎉🎉
💪💪
The ultimate revenge 😂
Ok but like why are the golden eye ducks so goddamn adorable????😍😍😍 they so chonky looking
Hahaha they really are
All because a bird pooped on his hammock. What a legend
😂💪 revenge never felt so good
I love hunting birds, its super fun and great for getting rid of hunting pressure
I didn't even think of the hunting pressure! That's actually a huge help

@@emmitloguidice7456 yeah they are looooong gone lol
I love coming home after a long day and watching Rooster
Awesome video’s you where slaying those ducks
Thanks!
That deer you spotted may have been melanistic
Wait really?? I'll have to go back and double check
He may not have noticed it, but on that golden eye, he got a.... ASS SHOT. Also I loved this video probably one of my new favourites, thanks for a great time 💪
I did!?!?!?! how did I not notice 😭
@@Rooster_Gaming FOR SHAME

I didn't even know there was another app! I'll check it out, thanks! 💪
Awesome video today
Thank you!
How do you change the color of the sights on the 20 gauge?
No clue, this one just came like that
Mine is red and I would like it to be white.
@@bramzipperer There are 3 types of the nordin shotgun, the one rooster is using is the" artisan" one. Check it out.
Damn bro i love your videos. Keep up the amazing work!
Thanks so much!
as a canadian,I respect this. a canadian goose stole my freaking sandwich when i was on a picnic >:/
22:55 "ima take a nap rq"
I love your vids :D
:D
Love your videos ❤❤❤❤
I'm happy to hear it! ❤💪
Piebalds for any animal is so cool I would’ve taxed that 😂 love ur vids ❤
Thank you! tbh I kinda regret not doing it
Idk if someone already said this but there is a 16 gauge that has 5 shots that is nice for duck and geese hunting

My best so far for killing ducks in one shotgun blast is 8 birds
Hunting stand is the best blind and the callers aren’t really needed. I never use them and get loads of ducks
Never thought you would hunt birds but I like it
I like when he said it's goose time and goosed all over the place
One time i saw a level 5 canada goose, but it noticed me and i spooked it off :(
Geese have flight paths and ranges in this game too. So if you saw him in a location, odds are you will again. I would suggest setting up decoys.
“THAT ONE BOUNCED!!”
I could just binge watch all of roosters vids lol
💪

Using those decoys would mess with me so hard XD
Sad moment when you realize that Piebald mallards are just uncommon RIP
Rooster, my wife used to call them Canadian Geese and would ask her how she knew whether it was born in Canada or in America. She would give me a blank look and I would remind her that they are Canada Geese, not Canadian Geese 😂😂😂
I think they’re trying to add new birds, but they might be just test running the body of them
Being from Canada we call these guys Cobra Chickens, & they may as well be velociraptors.😂 I’m considering this a Prehistoric hunt warmup video!😅
Hahaha yup. They attacked my grandfathers truck once and put a big ass dent in it. Those wings are STRONG. You on the east coast? I grew up in upstate NY, about 30 minutes south of the border. Also, I'm absolutely playing prehistoric hunt next week!

What shotgun were you using Rooster?
What region in revontuli were u in? Like balmont in layton lakes
The ultimate revenge on the birds
the first duck he spotted in the beginning of the video was a small diamond potential
You deserve more subs
I find it odd that the cobra chickens dont go aggro when you shoot at them
yeah they are super skittish in this game
You've encouraged me play this game rooster
love the part where he said its goosin time and goosed all over the place.
😂
hey rooster! I am proud to be sayin this on ur channel.. I got my first diamond two days ago, it was a turkey 4.68(I think) and I hope to see more awesome videos like this in the future, good luck!
btw what map is this?
Congrats!!!! This map is revontuli coast
Just so you know, the ducks and geese circle around. because in real life, they circle to look for predators, cuz they don't want to die.
What is the website called that you were using?
Nvm
He missed a diamond 2:05
The title got me dead😂😂😂😂
Hey Rooster love your videos got my first diamond 💎 and it was a moose in Yukon. Thanks for getting me into the game!
“They pooped on my lawn once”💀
My first diamond was a 4.70 meriam turkey on layton lakes 😊
What are you using to hunt them? The quite one I mean. Is it DLC?
What shotgun are you using?
I forgot the name, but it's a 20 gauge
GOOD VIDEO!❤❤❤
Hey rooster my dog got put down today
Love your videos man
The 7mm is a pretty powerful gun but after the moose great one update moose are a lot tougher and even will keep running a bit from a heart shot
Could you make a tutorial for the duck layout? Went and tried to replicate it but no where near as good as luck 😢

When I was playing on emerald coast I made javen Rusa and sambars extinct
Rooster can we play together I need help knowing how to get the 7 mm but I’ve already bought it. I just need to equip it.
No sorry. You do that in your storage locker
How do I get to my storage locker?
Never mind I figured it out
But it’s fine
By the way, I really like your videos you inspired me to play call of the wild my friend Wyatt wants to play it to
The goose are glitchy and laggy cause you can only spot the geese when there about to land or start landing
Hey what do you use to check the fur types and the scores,
cotw companion app
@@Rooster_Gaming thank you good sir ! Been playing for like a 2 years now still havnt had much diamonds or anything but ima keep grinding ! Love the content an find it very helpful an entertaining !
Rooster should I hunt for a diamond elk or a bighorn?
how do you see the health of the animals when you spot them
Either a perk or a skill
I keep piebalds for fillers till I get better animals
I think you miss a melanistic whitetail
nah it wasn't
what shotgun did you use?
Great video rooster! Bird hunting in this game is pain for me i Just can't hit them
It really is. I cut out about 45 minutes of missed shots 😅
@@Rooster_Gaming sometimes this game can be so fustrating Just a few days ago i tried to get some bison on silver ridge peaks with my 7mm one was perfectly broadside i took the shot and the 7mm bullet didn't gone thru the skin there was nothing in its way but it Just hit the skin that covers its lungs
@@marcell5097 yeah it seems like sometimes it rips through and out the second lung, and other times it's like hitting them with a paintball
What shot gun are you using
interesting video but enjoyable/ also made me redownload this game
Glad I could get you back into it!
Sadly pie is pretty much common for mallard.
My only complaint is how much you talk to pablo lol love the vids man you got me back into the game
Wish you shared the advice fella gave ya bc I just bought the dlc and would like to give this a shot
Well when you record by yourself for 2 hours straight you've got to talk to someone lol
@@Rooster_Gaming have you ever thought about streaming on yt or maybe playing some multiplayer? Either way keep it up the videos are great 👍
@@twitchy.mp3 I do stream on TH-cam! I've got a few cotw streams up, but I'm starting to stream other games
What guns do you use
7mm, 243, 22, and 10 gauge (this video I used a 20 gauge)
How did you get the 243
In regards to the phantom goose, it could be one of two things, too far out of range to spot, or ambience,. If the latter, I agree it's silly to have ambience of an animal that you're able to hunt in game.
Did no one tell this guy that’s it’s unethical, and in some states, illegal to shoot waterfowl while they’re on the ground?
you should try on the starter map
As a duck hunter I would say this is not very accurate the way the shot gun reloads the rang of the 20 gauge the way he shoot’s no lead but still fun to watch
My game is only spawning in level 2 whitetail any tips on how to fix it
that's normal. whitetail max level is level 3
@@Rooster_Gaming thank you I will keep looking for them
i think you should hunt pheasants on rancho del arroyo
what dlc did your .22 come on??
😮 can you tell us your actual name
Rooster. Nah it's actually Benjamin, but I go by Ben
I love your name 😍😍😍
I am pissed today I finally got a perfect shot on a lvl 5 Springbok and it decided to be 1.2 off of diamond
Oh damn, that must have hurt
Piebald is counted as common for Mallards. They really are common for that species. Also the 12g with six rounds is really good once you unlock it.
they are real they are just out of distance to mark
Actually, they aren’t named after Canada, but a guy named Canada, so the plural is Canada geese.
where on your phone do find the info on rare types
My brother got this game and all the dlcs for it for 20 bucks and he hasn’t used it yet and I’ve been using it lol
Dude you need top get a piebald Fallow deer before the new models
