In this video I explain the right way to cluck, honk and moan with a short reed goose call. Beginners must master these calls to become a good goose hunter. Goose hunting without a good goose caller is very difficult! - Zábava
Excellent tutorial! You describe back pressure and tongue control better than I've ever heard.
This is the most helpful video I have seen on how to properly operate a goose call. THANKS!
Chris Torborg glad to hear it, thanks! Check out my other goose calling videos as you progress!
@@CollinRandallOutdoors Thanks for this video buddy!!!! I would like to pick up a call like the one you were using. Can you share with me what kind of short reed call you're using?
Best call video yet . Definitely the best progress I’ve made in weeks
I love flutes.. Always had success with em. But that call you're using sound's very good.. I learned how to call at local pond's. Sat all summer one year till I sounded just like they did..
Great tutorial. I've watched this several times while I'm in my shop practicing.
I see this kind of calling video a lot for begginers it is really good, after you have blown and tuned your calls for a few years you realize the short comings of each type of call. Short reed, flute, resonance cavity. Short reeds have about the cleanest sound however lower tones are hard to get when you have it tuned for a high break, and high breaks are hard when you have it tuned for a great lower end. The noise I tell people how to use is make a nail gun noise then put the calls to your mouth and do it again. But the thing I see that's weird is a short Reed is kinda like sitting on a balloon to blow, your really just changing pressure in and out of the call when blowing. Lower end you choke down the pressure higher end you upen up the pressure. After you learn this you are basically just blowing from the diaphragm and cutting off the air with your tongue and changing the pressure of the call with your hands and all the notes are the same machanics, you just speed up slow down open up and close off. So that's what I've asertained and there is,a few videos that come close to telling you this but stop short like it's something that you have to figure out yourself instead of showing that first and showing how to use it in hunting situations. I'd like to see some videos where people in the blind with a good camera man and voice over and actually work birds into the decoys with one person calling,two etc... and cadences to use at what times and how the birds react because where I'm at you see it in the field all the time, then some noob comes in that didn't do there homework and blows open framed honks that don't finish or wine off or decending notes instead of acending because they watched a video like this and scare the birds off, so I will say always finish a honk or cluck or growl with a cluck or a double cluck with a cluck. The honk ahh honk ahh is not a sound that goose make I tried calling like that for years because I saw it on every video and yeah we had some geese come in. But yeah it's a note you can hit on a goose call and yeah goose don't make that noise. There honks or clicks or growls are there vocabulary. Double clicks are two birds , that dumb honk ahh noise is supposed to be a smear of sound when you have a lot of birds or multiple callers and by itself it says don't land hear we have retarded geese. Haha I wouldn't have said anything or left a comment but that noise is my biggest pet peive in the field because if you are lining up geese with a resonance cavity 3 miles out, then you switch to a short Reed and wait for them to come close hit them with a few honks to line up, then give them feeding chatter on the approach and sock them with growls and clucks to go feet down, and anywhere in the mix someone in a blind a mile away hits that stupid note you see them do a huge wtf midair and fly for the next state!
Been hunting geese my whole life, I have taught many beginners how to call, if i didn't have the time i sent them the link to your video, thank man awesome vid. Good Luck
Rob Benti wow that’s awesome! Thanks man I appreciate that!!
Just posted a video on the double cluck and quick spit/spit note, let me know what you think! czcams.com/video/quZsOtXzOYU/video.html
would love to see the under calling and over calling explained and when to call type of video! you explain everything very well!
drew S thanks I️ will definitely go into detail on that in an upcoming video! I️ cover a lot of VERY valuable detail in my new waterfowl hunting guide to success eBook. Check I️t out on my website croHQ.com It’s definitely worth the money and I️t helps me out a ton!
Explained very well, and correctly... Wish I would have seen this video 8 years ago when I first started. 👌🏻
I have a call from toxic calls it’s not like a normal call. It’s a short reed goose call and I don’t really use it that much but is till kill geese
I appreciate the tips. I’ve hunted waterfowl for years, and consider myself adequate calling ducks, but haven’t put much time into geese calling until last season, so lots of work to do. Thanks for putting this together.
Caleb Mckenzie awesome glad it helped stay tuned for more from my channel got a great goose hunting instructional video coming out soon!
Collin Randall Outdoors will do. I’ll subscribe now.
Hey thought you may like my latest goose calling video check it out here czcams.com/video/quZsOtXzOYU/video.html
Well done! I'm a beginner and I think this will help A LOT!!
New to calling myself and this helped tremendously! thanks
I'm gonna get home and practice. Thx for the video lots good info for me to start calling!
I’m taking my 11 yo out for our diary goose hunt tomorrow! Thanks for a great video.
Awesome job! You sound exactly like them! Unreal.
This was incredibly helpful thank you!
Would love to see more instructional calling videos man you're spot on
Corey Blake thanks man, I am working on a few new instructional videos now. I will have them posted in about a week.
Can't wait to see them so far this year I need all the help I can get
Hey man just posted another quick instructional video let me know what you think.
Excellent tutorial. Thanks
I was not previously aware that this was a thing. Thank you.
Very good still can’t figure it out but I’m getting there first call was a long reed it broke now I have a short reed and I can’t make it do squat
Excellent video would like to see more!!!
Great tongue instruction. Spot on.
Just posted another goose calling video on the double cluck and spit note let me know what you think! czcams.com/video/quZsOtXzOYU/video.html
what don't you like about the flutes? my brother bought one, its easy to blow for beginners. I understand that its not meant for advanced calling, but what other issues do you know about them?
great video.. help me a lot with my practicing.. still not gettin even close but workin on it..
Greetings from finland
Thanks for the tips
Great explination
Well made video, now do the same thing for specks and snows!
Do Canada Geese get "call shy" like mallards where sometimes it is better to be quiet and let the decoys do the work?
awesome advice
Thanks! Check out my video on the double cluck and spit note here! czcams.com/video/quZsOtXzOYU/video.html
Hey Collin, I think I remember an old vid on your channel (probably 4 years ago or older) in which you shot birds w/your Diamond razors edge. Do you intend to make another dove hunt with it? That would be awesome! Thanks a lot for your channel, one of the best hunting channels on YT.
Crazy about Hunting wow that’s awesome thanks!! I️ do plan on doing more dove hunting bot shotgun and archery again lol. Just trying to find the time. Ill be posing a goose hunt video this week stay tuned I️t is going to be awesome!
@4:53, you can see a few rabbits going up the hill over your left shoulder!
very helpful
Hello Collin do you have any link where to buy the goose call that you are using. Thank you
I got a goose flute and it's the best call there is
you can hunt in the middle of the suburbs?
What call are you using here in the video?
Flute calls do work, they are just different than short reeds.
This is a really good video, it helped me a lot
Thanks!
Hey Collin, do you think you could do a video of you hunting. That would be a really cool video.
Gavin, I have a few videos of me hunting. Go to my page and click on videos. You will see some goose and duck hunts as well as some turkey hunts and other things too! Let me know what you think. Be sure to hit subscribe so you see when I upload more videos.

I don't know how to do it right. I have the tongue on the bottom gum and i provide forward air pressure, but it then comes out like a party whistle and it sounds like a high pitch goose. What can I do to make it sound lower pitched and more realistic?
Give the rabbits in the back their credit. I thought it was a yote coming into your calling at first lol
I'd really like to get better at calling but also would like to find a better call then what I have just not sure on which one to get
Dustin Braye I just bought a zinc pearl short reed call. Really liking it. No on field experience yet but it’s easy to get the hang of.
What short reed call do you recommend?
What kind of call are you using?
I am a samoa bro but I love your video bro
+Dolo Ahcnig haha I love it brotha!
Well, I can make a honk the way you say to do it. Now I need to make it sound “goosey”. I think I’m going to have to spend a lot of time trying until I figure it out.
Practice makes prefect. I sit outside over the summer and just practice calling with all my calls, and that’s how I learned. I probably should’ve watched some tutorials, because I had to figure all this and more the hard way. Good luck and happy hunting!
What brand of goose call you use?
Do you have a tuning video? Love to see one using your details! Keep it up man helped me alot, going to part 2 now!
I will try to get a tuning video out soon. Great idea thanks Travis!
@@CollinRandallOutdoors NP keep it up your tutorial got me my first goose !!
Can u please make a video for us new canada goose hunters. I dont know what types of goose sounds im supposed to make to call them in. Also do u know any good layout blinds for bean and corn fields for around 70-130 bucks
fisher 50500 go to my CZcams channel CZcams.com/collinrandalloutdoors I have already made a goose calling video for beginners. It should be exactly what your looking for. Also I made an Ebook all about becoming a successful goose hunter you can find it on my website Crohq.com
Anyone else see the rabbit at 4:53? Thanks for posting this has helped me suck less
Anyone else see the cotton tails on the hill to the right of the screen. At 4:52-4:56. Or am I just weird?
Nice video! Stack em up! Where are you at and hows the season I'm in Colorado these 65 degree days are killing me..... Im trying to slay! haha
How do you hunt geese when everything is frozen over? I’m also in Colorado but this is my first year hunting here.
Hunt the Ice, Hunt the river, and fields it is best when everything is frozen and its cold out.
I got a knight and hall magnum clucker goose call
What do the different sounds mean? Where can one learn???!?!?!?
I have a flute and its 10x easier than the short Reed I have! And it sounds much more lifelike and requires less air
Having asthma I sometimes have a problem breaking a short reed call over..
Yup don’t need as much air and can call quieter working birds in close.
The words you say in a call is "HERE GOOSSY GOOSSY"
lol same intro music as Off the Ranch.. Gotta love free use music
did you notice the jack rabbits playing over your left shoulder ?
Layin out in a snow covered cut corn field watchin this vid and practicing. We'll see how it goes in an hour when the sun gets low
"Flute calls are terrible?" Not if you know how to use them. I've been using a Big River for over 20 years and have been pretty successful.
Correct, I bought a big river call in 1990. It's amazing. I remember at the time it was $48 bucks. I didn't have much money back then but it was well worth it.
I have easter shoremen. I love it.
I've personally found that flutes sound really good up close but if you back off 100-200 yards they sound like childrens toys. If you dont believe me, set up a camera and mic and then drive away and call back towards it. Your amazing calling sounds comical at a distance. They can be very successful on close geese, more of a finishing call.. As in you have geese that want to come in and the flutes give them a few notes to reassure them. I've never in my life seen anyone with a flute pull down a flock of migrators or run traffic in fields or water. There is a reason you hardly ever see "hard core hunters" using them, and its not because they don't know what a flute is. There are A LOT of old timers who use flutes in the area I hunt, and they kill a lot of geese. Early season, and late freeze up when the geese are retarded. Mid season when you have to sweet talk them and work pressured birds, they duck hunt. They'll be the first to make fun of guys blowing "those screechy short reeds" though, when we are pulling down flocks out of the heavens and they are blowing their bicycle horns at them. Same excuses at the ramp every time "the geese all want your spot. We weren't using enough decoys. You guys had first crack at them coming down the river". As you can tell, I'm not a fan of the flutes nor the novices that swear by them. An expert with a flute sounds about as good as an average caller on a $15 short reed.
I have a olt A-50 and big river long honker. Big river will get ya a lot of birds. My olt though I can do every thing a short reed can and sound better doing it
This video is for beginners. He’s spot on. Once you figure a basic call, moving on to other designs is much easier.
I agree that dove hunting would be a nice addition to your channel, very popular hunt, especially if you use a bow.
Super Natural Jim I will put something together thanks for the advice!
My Canada geese reacted to every call BUT not to the last call . Idk why, but figured I'd let you know..
What goose call is that
Did you find out what call he was using?
Why does everyone say flutes are bad?
@Opal Trickett ok personally I have practiced my flute and got it to sound good i kill geese with it so
Great vid. What call is that?
+duxnlabs it’s the Big guys best Fat boy!
This is the music to off the ranch into
Any body else notice the rabbits in background around 4:40
Wissota Outdoors nope just you
Nope I posted the same thing. lol Saw it.
I noticed lol
Yep
I did but wasn't sure of what it was running!
What kind of call was you using in this video brotha
Hey man, I am using a bgb fat boy! However I will be posting a new video of a company/call I am switching to.
Collin Randall Outdoors thank you buddy I was looking at goose calls then I came across your video and I was like what call does he have, but preciate it brotha imma look at those and keep up the great vids!
Do you have a link to where I can find this call?
I don’t but I got it at cabelas.
Collin Randall Outdoors alright thanks buddy I’ll go look there before the season comes back in
looking for a new goose call, right now I have a zink power clucker and looking for a new one, so curious of what brand of call that is.
+Waterfowl Load Fishing it’s call the big guys best fat boy. I love it
k ill check it out.
Looks similar to the foiles straight meat.
Unfortunately we don't get them over here in the UK.
my friend has the foiles straight meat and I like it but i simply dont have the money for one, but i like me zink power clucker
+Andy Williams bummer, bet you could order one though?
Cluck and moan = honk = mind blown 🤯
anyone else notice the rabbit at 4:52 just off his left shoulder...
Why do some short reeds sound so high pitched and weird?
Peter L. Usually not tuned right. It might be for different types of geese like specks and snows.
Hey man iv tryed all of what you've showed in this video, and i cant seem to get it. I dont know if it is my call or what. The call im useing is a flextone goose call i got from dicks sporting goods it was about 12$. Id really appreciate it if you could comment back thanks.
Hunter Elenbaas it’s not the call unless you pulled out the guts on the call and tried to tune I️t without knowing what your doing. Send a pic of your goose call to my instagram @collinrandalloutdoors one of the call put together and one of the call pulled in half.
Collin Randall Outdoors ok thanks
I'm happy my backyard geese are not the kind of goose that can fly like that. The higher they've ever been is maybe 1 meter.. and horizontally maybe 10 meters. I don' t even know if they could fly like that if there was a predator or something
Any body else see the rabbit run behind him at 4:50?
Mine is so high pitche
but i dont see any bands on that lanyard.
Reed
How to goose
I say hoot for the cluck
So I want to say great video, but I want to state a couple opinions of my own. First off I'll start by saying I'm pretty damn good on a flute but wanted to give the short reed call a try I'll explain why shortly. # 1 (DO BUY) a flute call! Here's why picking up the basics of calling geese is far easier on a flute then it is on a short reed, and in my opinion being able to call geese in even with basic calls on a flute is better then having a short reed call on your lanyard and not using it cause you suck with it. #2 I have called in more geese then I could ever count with a flute. That being said I do find that a flute limits the type of calling you can do. If you're looking to do some of the more advanced calling then the short reed call is far superior which is why I am making the switch to short reed. At the end of the day if you can call in geese with a flute or short reed then use it and smash some birds!
Did anyone see the rabbits in the back ground 4:55
HAHAHHAHAHHA good eye!!!!!
Hopes calls
Can I use this to call clay birds haha!
your video content is great but your video views are very low. Because have Some problems with your video as a result viewers are few. I want to meet with you to solve this.
Anyone else see the coyote run behind him
Rookie
Wookie Goldberg thanks amateur.
Collin Randall Outdoors 😂 right on
Lol anyone else think someone was ridding the rumble strip at 7:00
I don’t think he means the flute is a bad call because they do have their place, but the short reed is a lot easier to be more versatile with. And for all you know he has a shoe box full of bands. Just because you have bands doesn’t make you a better hunter, I only have 6 and I know guys who have gotten 5 in their first year hunting, before the early season was even over, because they hunt fields close to where the dnr bands them in the summer. You sound ignorant.
Good tips but something tells me your never in traffic where your at. I’m jealous for sure I get plenty of practice here in Philly. Trying to perfect this call to use at my daughters volleyball games at Washington College. There know as the Lady Geese
Smash 72Cutlass hah, i work in pa
Hey I know exactly where this is no wonder your pounding geese!
Andrew degroen how do you know?
Collin Randall Outdoors I drive past there every single day. Just passed McKay to the north by the Red Barn is where that is
I've always wanted to stop and ask the guy if I could hunt his field Lol
Don't know if you're out there hunting but there's a lot of birds in your field right now
Just need 2000 worth of decoys,
I absolutely disagree I have a Sean manns flute and it sounds great yours does as well but don’t tell people not to use one
Flutes are bad if you can’t blow them lol
Damn I'm glad y'all don't know the first thing about the various languages of various species and sub-species of geese on the different flyways. It's the one thing that keeps hunting a reasonable (though sometimes seriously flawed) form of population control, rather than a wholesale slaughter. Usually the reason they're coming in is because you've got the curiosity of the flight manager up and s/he has given the order to land, not because you've said anything that makes one damn bit of sense to them.
There. I've just given you the one best piece of information that anyone will ever give you. You'll never hear it from one of these equipment peddlers or a guide. They're just trying to sell you stuff often by using pseudo-science. Instead of trying to mimic them (because you don't know thing one about their very complex language - and probably don't even know that they're sentient and have an intelligence which is closer to yours than it is to your dog's) try instead to capture their innate curiosity. Think off calling in a toddler and you'll get better success. Oh, and don't get confused and shoot the toddler even if at times you'd really like to (joking lest there be any doubt).
But seriously, geese of most species (excluding domestic breeds) think both hierarchically and exponentially, which until just under a decade ago was thought to be the exclusive provenance of humans. That means that when you take it upon yourself to take the life of one of these birds, you should do so with respect, dignity, and humanely as possible. Don't take any shot that isn't a sure kill shot. Run lots of shot through your shotgun's barrel during the off season with the intention being to kill as many clay pigeons as possible with as few shells as possible. If you're missing one clay a box that's too many. Practice more. If you're missing one per every four boxes you're getting there. You literally cannot practice too much though, and if you can't go through four boxes of clays with no more than one miss, then you should stop hunting these birds until you can, and if you never can, then its time to lock up ol' trusty in the gun safe, or sell/give it to a good home. Be a good sportsman, and never be a sky buster.
Before you take aim on one of these birds again, I would like you to spend some serious thinking time about what it means to kill a being which is every bit as intelligent as you were in your younger years, whose memory is far better than yours was at that age, whose language far surpasses ours in many ways (how's 122 words & gestures that I know of for "water" strike you for starters?), and all the same feelings and emotions we have (happiness, joy, excitement, love, anger, hatred, fear, sadness, grief and many more). After you have that knowledge firmly in your mind, I want you to spend some more time thinking deeply and honestly about how you justify taking a life of that level. Personally, It doesn't matter to me what conclusion you reach (as long as it isn't something really dark and twisted that you intend to carry out on humans too). The only thing that matters to me is that you DO think about it. If you can justify it don't be surprised if one day you take a limit, and the next time out you may find yourself surrounded by five-hundred times a limit unable to take a shot because you're laughing inside (and trying to keep it silent) as you watch what they do with and to your decoys. You will never look at at geese the same way again.
i agree they’re beautiful and really cool birds, all animals are, but we’re predators like any other, they taste great as well
I swear this is killing me
Buy yourself a scobey
You say flutes suck but yet my dad has one and he had like 12 bands you have 0 I’m 14 and I have 3
Garrett Myers thanks for the advice, I didn’t know the number of bands you have correlate to how good you are at goose hunting!
What a prick 😂
Garrett Myers and I’m sure they’re all local bands
Why did it take him so long to toot it he took so long I just came here for him to toot it and it took a whole fucking year what the fuck 0/10
Ok imma kinda hate and laugh tho you dont need sound like fred zink simple honker will kill honkers dont need all that fancy same with duck hunting 😂 as for flutes sorry dont hate my uncle has a flute and we have shot limits thanks to him it depends on the day
Flutes are terrible..... really? I can out call 9 out 10 guys you will find with my olt A-50 flute over there short reeds. You my friend don’t know how to blow one then.
