I used to go goose hunting every fall with my Dad, relatives and friends. We had a lot of decoys and had good success.
Setting up for the wind, leaving space for them to come into the decoys, and some calling were all part of the strategy. We would scout the afternoon prior to hunting and determine which fields were attracting them. Movement provided by the kite decoys seemed helpful also.
We never used blinds, just camo and laid right in the decoys. It was a good time, except for laying on the frozen North Dakota fields in the pre-dawn, freezing my rear end off!
But, what a rush when you fool a good sized flock and they start fluttering down almost on top of you. Usually tho it was singles or very small groups that we were most successful with. Loved those foggy mornings.
I am guessing you could get them to land around you, if you are patient. It happened occaisionally, but usually we shot them in the air.
