Default Different Hunting Regulations.

I was watching Wardens on television last night, and the warden counted up every shotshell that each hunter had. Apparently, at least in some parts of Michigan, a waterfowl hunter can only carry 25 shotshells. Many Alberta hunters would not be happy that regulation, and not just snow goose hunters. What other regulations, from other jurisdictions, are you are aware of that would seem strange to us?

Native and non native hunters must follow the same rules in other parts of the world.....

Sukkwan Island in Alaska. If you shoot at an animal, it counts and uses your tag weather you hit it or kill it or not.

Remember when Ted Nugent got in trouble for poaching.

Waterfowl hunters in some US State, can't say which, using extended mag tubes on their semi-auto shotguns. Was watching on youtube just yesterday slamming snow geese with a full load of 12 shells in his gun. Just what you need when you have 10,000 snow geese overhead . Two full reloads = one box of shells lol.

The cutting the tag with zero other requirements would be even better

New Zealand - virtually no regulations. No licenses, no tags, no seasons, no requirement to salvage any meat. You can even hunt in national parks.

All those animals are considered invasive,deer,goats,etc. Just the same as wild boar here in Alberta. Therefore no tags needed.

A friend of mine does depredation hunting in Arkansas, no mag limit and no daily limit. He uses a 30" semi with a full length mag.

I was reading in Wildfowl magazine some refuges have a 12? shell limit strictly enforced to eliminate sky busting. Some hilarious chasing shot bird stories came out of that one.

The damage we could do here with that would be something. We shoot 50 a guy with three shells. With an extended tube one could make an actual difference! So far we aren’t even breaking even with those sly white birds
Snow Addictions is one of the best spring snow goose guide in the states and their best volley the other year was 72 from one decoying flock. There was a video of Jonathan unleashing on em with his extended tube and the man
Could shoot too he must have went 11-11 or so in that clip. On my bucket list to hunt with them.

Had to google them.
I assume you're referring to this outfit?

What is wrong with some people? Why would he post something so stupid?

Exclamation It's marketing. They know their demographic. 'Murica!

You do know those are Americans in Arkansas, right?
They are closely related to the Monster energy drink swilling superstar known as Kyle. Their targeted demographic expects to see, and approves of, videos such as that.

This is really not that much different than the Bowmar spear hunting video that caused so much angst around these parts. They are still operating a lucrative business in their chosen field.

Yes that’s the outfit. You must have been googling a while to find something in bad taste about them since that’s from 2019. It’s not my style but perfectly legal. There is always bad if you look for it. They are guides and the clients are shooting.
How many quality feet down mega flock posts did you scroll past before you found that?

They may be good at killing geese, but that is just stupidity to actually post that.

Exactly none.

I watched one video and this masterpiece is the second video on their page.
Very stupid video that they posted themselves. They must be fairly proud of it.
Says a lot.

Sorry for the derail folks, had to clear that up.
