    I read a post on one of these sites regarding the hunting of geese (and other waterfowl) with archery equipment.

    I submitted a question to the Washington State Department of Fish and Wildlife.
    Here is the response:


    Konrad,

    This doesn’t sound too crazy, it’s a question we get more than you would think. Yes you
    can hunt waterfowl with archery equipment, no tag required. You would need a small game license and duck stamp. Here is a link to our archery regulations as they pertain to hunting big game http://search.leg.wa.gov/pub/textsearch/ViewRoot.asp?Action=Html&Item=1&X=513133348&p=1 please review before going afield. Since the archery restrictions are put together for big game only, we go under the assumption that you can use whatever broad-heads you want when hunting for small game.

    Hope this helps,

    I think perhaps a turkey ground blind would work well for geese???
