What about the guy who is not always after snow geese? He sees geese from time to time, but is not prepared for the times when they show up?
This kind of hunter usually focuses on hunting ducks. He assumes there is a better chance to get more shooting opportunities if he prepares for ducks. He foregoes carrying and putting out a spread of snow goose decoys because it is just too much work to carry a dozen or two floating snow goose decoys on top of his already heavy load of duck decoys. Besides that he does not have enough room in his SUV to add a bunch of extra decoys. This person sees carrying a spread of a dozen or two duck decoys as being heavy enough for the distance he will be walking. This hunter is satisfied with shooting ducks and taking the occasional goose that flies by. For this hunter, a strap filled with ducks that includes an occasional goose is satisfying enough to continue his past methods of hunting.
What if this same hunter could easily add a small spread of goose decoys with just a little extra effort?
If this kind of hunter sees enough snows in the area he may start to think about adding two or three goose decoys so he can up his odds for shooting a snow. The assumption is that the additional goose decoys will at least act as confidence decoys even if snows are not attracted in large numbers to his spread. The hope is that the occasional snow will be drawn to his minimal number of decoys. This does in fact work. Certainly a very small spread is better than none at all. But what if, for a little extra effort, a hunter could add one or even two dozen decoys instead of just one decoy? This is where Cabaw Decoys enters the picture. Two dozen Cabaw Decoys weigh the same and takes up the same volume as a single hard plastic floating goose decoy. What would allow the hunter to be better prepared for the occasional passing snow goose; one decoy or twenty-four?
By adding Cabaw Decoys to your spread you will be adding minimal effort and maximizing your opportunity to take snow geese.
Cabaw Decoys are for those who want to provide the confidence needed to cause birds to land in the spread.
The following is a comparison chart of the cost and weight of Cabaw Decoys as compared to other kinds of decoys that represent a swimming snow goose.
