goose feather source

[gringol]

I'm working on some arrows that would look great fletched with grey goose feathers.  Does anyone know a source for those?

I keep all of the primary wing feathers from every Canada goose I kill-They are the best feathers on the planet-I wish they came in white, so I could dye them--

Try kbetts. He might have some still.
PJ, Dye the blue ones. You will find a color to suit you.
You could also try for a snow goose. Black and white mottled feather.

Unfortunately, there are no canada geese in S. Florida.  P.J. I have seen white goose feathers for sale at Moscow Hide and Fur.

Send Magnus a PM....I think he still has plenty.

x4 (or 5, I lost count) Magnus. I got some low pro 4" honker babnanners from him that are great.

Thanks for all the hints guys.

There are Canada Geese in south Florida. They molt just before the youngsters are ready for flight training, June and July.

This is mushy, but the writer loves geese and is a close observer of their behavior and cycles.

That WAS mushy, killdeer.    I've lived here for 6 years and I haven't seen any geese yet.  Maybe I should take up golf to find the geese...
