Grouse are tough Ted. Im 62 yo and I cant grouse hunt like I once did. I got 5 this season after 2 weeks of hunting in the UP if that tells you anything. Seems like the older I get, the less time I have on those things. Couldnt even get the safety catch off before they were gone....hang in there. Its still fun, but quail hunting on wild birds must be 10-20x easier! Grouse hunting is ROUGH.

Socialism is almost the worst.
