It was about 7:15 in the morning ..
we had a storm front coming in for the evening so I figured they might be moving ..
Had some Sure Kill buck scent in a film canister at the base of the stand and he came out of the woods and made a beeline for it .. payed me no attention at all even thought he looked right at me while I was raising the gun

I find that nutria are tastier, but since you asked:
1 Possum
1 cup salt
Possum Stuffing
1 large onion, chopped fine
1 tablespoon fat
Possum liver (optional)
1 cup breadcrumbs
chopped red pepper
1 dash Worcestershire sauce
1 hard-boiled egg, chopped fine
salt, to taste
Directions:
Roast Possum.
1 The Possum is a very fat animal with a peculiarly flavored meat.
2 It is dressed much as one would dress a suckling pig, removing the entrails, and if desired, the head and tail.
3 After it is dressed, wash thoroughly inside and out with hot water.
4 Cover with cold water to which has been added 1 cup of salt.
5 Allow to stand overnight. In morning, drain off the salted water and rinse well with clear water.
6 Stuff Possum with Possum stuffing (stuffing recipes next); sew opening or fasten with skewers.
7 Place in roaster, add 2 tablespoons water and roast in moderate oven (350°F) until tender and richly browned, about one and one half hours.
8 Baste every 15 minutes with drippings.
9 Remove skewers or stitches, and place on heated platter.
10 Skim fat from gravy remaining in pan.
Possum Stuffing.
1 Brown onion in fat.
2 Add finely chopped Possum liver and cook until liver is tender.
3 Add crumbs, a little red pepper, Worcestershire sauce, egg, salt and water to moisten.
Enjoy!

Doesn't look like he had much of a chance. Looks like a smacked carotid with all that bright red. Nice Shot! What was the range?

After cosigning the -5 degree angle from the tree stand it ranged a distant 58 1/2 yards! We do all this long range prep and they appear in your hip pocket! :-)

Thanks Smoke, Made a bunch of Jerky for my son that is getting home from Afghanistan on 12/27, my birthday! Him and the boys in the 1st out of Ft. Riley love the stuff. Sent some goose jerky over and they took it out on patrol.

Would you share The Goose jerky recipe?? .. We are overrun with them (canadian geese) and So far have not found a good recipe for them
Thanks

I have a buddy who, while learning the art of duck hunting, made up a BUNCH of water turkey jerky. It was pretty tasty and I'll see if I can get his recipe to share. If it works for water turkeys, surely it will be good for geese!
