Grouse the hard way.. TBM

[Jake Scott]

The mountain grouse we have in my neck of the woods are few and far between and danged clever.  They normally flush before I see them.  There is more than one of my arrows stuck out of reach in the trees.  Extensive management and a lack of hunter interest in recent years has recently brought numbers higher than ever in my (relatively short) life.  I can count on one hand the grouse I saw in 20 years as a youngster, stomping through these woods.  In my last outing for squirrel this year I saw three in one outing.  Something not even many "oldtimers" can claim.  A bowkilled grouse is a fine trophy here, and I am in hot pursuit.  Great thread, I enjoyed it
Thoroughly.

Thanks for sharing I read the article a while back it was cool to see the video. May have to try that this fall.
Seeing as I fear the deer numbers will be down this year .

Thats too cool. The closest Ive seen to that was in Allagash Maine during a moose hunt. I shot at about a dozen and clipped two. If I can draw another moose tag Ill be looking forward to grousing just as much.

That video is awesome!  Looks like lots of fun but I would definitely be making a lot more arrows if I did that much.

Wow, thanks for sharing that video.
My hunting partner & I usually get several Grouse each Elk season. They make a nice dinner.
