About SGC

The Henry family started a hunting business nearly 19 years ago in Putnam County. Yes—a 19-year-old boy chasing his dream of deer and turkey hunting started what is now SGC, the largest snow goose company in the country.

At just 19 years old, Mark Henry began pursuing his dream of running a deer and turkey hunting business. After many failed attempts in the whitetail world, Mark was convinced he was done with guiding—mainly due to the high cost of leasing hunting land in northern Missouri.

That changed one day while he was setting out decoys near the Missouri River in Wellington. A massive flock of snow geese swarmed over him for hours. Mark stood in awe, watching the geese. In that moment, he realized it wasn’t just the hunt he wanted people to experience—it was the beauty of it all.

Mark began offering affordable hunts with the goal of growing the sport of snow goose hunting and welcoming anyone who simply wanted to enjoy the view. What he didn’t expect was that this would become one of the most popular spring hunts in the world.

That dream is now Snow Goose Commanders—the largest snow goose company in the country. It hasn’t been an easy road for the Henry family, but it’s one they’re proud they never gave up on.

Our guides are among the best in the business, and we’re committed to keeping our prices affordable—despite the rising costs of leasing, fuel, wages, and insurance. For the past 17 years, the Henry family has put clients first—and that’s one thing that will never change.
