There really is no secret handshake. First you find the peanut fields holding geese then you knock on the door. Ask if you can hunt it the next morning. You'll get a yes more then you'll get a no.
Sooooo....any suggestions on general areas of the state where this is possible? I have a sizeable filed set that I am thinking seriously about trading to a buddy in Lubbock Texas for a couple of hunts a season until I get too old and fat to make the trip....but if it is really possible to do what you suggest I may wait a season or two LOL. I ain't skeered to travel....
One would think that if indeed peanut farmers were wont to allow folks to shoot geese on their place those in South Carolina and Alabama may be equally open to the idea as their brethren in Georgia. That opens up a bunch of possibilities LOL.
Peanut farmers in West Texas and New Mexico are definitely open to the idea of shooting cranes and snows off their places....apparently both do some serious damage to peanuts somehow. All I know is generally speaking they are about as likely to say yes as no....
I generally have had pretty good success asking for permission to hunt....I had some areas around Lubbock I could hunt and nearly the entirety of the panhandle of Texas is either leased or optioned to lease for geese....but I managed to get a yes from time to time. Same is true of New Mexico.....but for different reasons....they thought I had lost my mind asking LOL. No one hunts geese in eastern New Mexico yet the area can be pretty good given the lack of pressure.....
