Goose's Revenge

This is pretty comical, along the same lines as Elmer Fudd and the "wabbit" or Daffy Duck.

Hunter knocked out by falling goose

STOCKHOLM, Sweden - A Swedish hunter spent two days in bed after being knocked unconscious by a Canada goose that landed on his head moments after his son shot it dead.

The goose had been flying about 60 feet in the air when it was shot by Carl Johan Ilback, who was hunting with his father, Ulf, along a stream in eastern Sweden.

When the goose dropped from the sky, it hit Ulf Ilback in the head and knocked him out, he said.

"It wanted to extract its revenge, I assume," Ulf Ilback told local newspaper Extra Ostergotland on Wednesday. "If it had gotten a better hit, it could have broken my neck."

Ilback spent two days in bed with severe headaches before returning to work.

"The story brought about a lot of laughter at work," he said.

He added that during this month's moose hunt, he may wear a helmet.

I heard the story on fox yesterday. Pretty funny.

Hunting Video...

I saw a hilarious segment on one of the commercial goose-hunting videos recently. Three guys in a field, using those plastic goose "pop-up" blinds, with several birds coming at them. All of them pop up and take shots, and one bird lands *in the blind* with one of the hunters. If he hadn't moved it would have hurt him pretty bad! Great "special delivery", though!

Been there and done this. When I was 8 yrs old, my father nailed a pair of mallards high over the blind. The greenhead fell long, but the hen folded like a soggy taco and fell hard, hitting me square in the head and knocking me off my feet and down into the bottom of the blind. Don't remember if I had headaches days later, but I sure had one the rest of that day.

I heard some of them Swedes ain't to bright, don't know when to "duck". Yeah, there was the Ingamar Johansen guy who forgot to duck when Floyd Patterson threw that left hook!!
