Grousing is more of a long walk in the woods than it is about putting food on the table. In this trip I spent 3 days and about 20 hours walking old logging roads and bush whacking to find the wild ruffed grouse. I take a visit to Jeremy's bear hunting treestand to see if there is any activity on the trailcamera, and talk about the gun I use for all my hunting as well as ear protection. To my grouse I added wild high bush cranberries (made into a sauce with my own maple sugar, wild mushrooms supplied by Jeremy, and bear fat to moisten; a meal fit for any outdoorsman! As always we cook outdoors in the field. I also touch on techniques for grouse including trail walking, my thoughts on atv use, old logging roads, environmental conditions and bushwacking

We hunt alike, I use the same model shotgun, and also believe I should walk as it is part of -Fair Chase-
BTW: as a teen I was once chastised a little bit while at a local bait shop for -Ground Swatting- The bait shop owner humiliated the guy by informing him that -The kid- (Me) was hunting the Grouse by sneaking up on them, crawling on his belly then shooting them with his. 22LR Revolver, that he had repaired after finding it rusting at the bottom of the lake. I thought the poor guy was going to cry he was so embarrassed!

Old single shot cooey 20g's lend themselves great to grouse hunting. Light for long walks, balance perfectly in one hand. You dont need a strap so you're always ready. Full choke for longer shots and busting through brush. I also have a strong nostalgia for a classic Canadian firearm from Cobourg Ont. Calibermag has a terrific online article about their history that I'm sure you'd enjoy. Cheers from N. B.

I've done grouse hunting with a friend, and generally we enjoyed walking the trails, even if it's a cool crisp fall day, with the dog digging through the brush for the birds of the season. Sometimes we strike well, and bring home something to eat, sometimes it's back to beef and corn. Relaxing, and enjoyable either way, even without the thrill of a successful hunt.

My dad always says - the magpies need to eat too. Always thought magpies were pretty birds & they serve a purpose. Can always tell where fresh kills are in the forest by watching for them too. Grouse is like snipe hunting here in the desert. Enjoying your vids today while I rest. Thank you!

In Maine all the grouse are over run by damn turkey's. We used to always limit out until they re introduced turkey. Last time I went we drove around all day and only one we saw was roadkill on the way home. At least I didn't bite into any pellets.

shot my buddies 300 rim without ear pro, had tinnitus for 4 days after. you NEED ear pro. i'm sure i lost some hearing on the higher spectrum and the military doesnt pay for hearing loss anymore.

The general advice when it comes to assessing ear protection is it's half of whatever the protection is rated for. This takes into consideration not wearing them properly and similar things.

How much of your day to day or normal diet is wild food? Like do you tend to get just sides from the store or put od season stuff or, do you only store buy when you cant hunt/harvest?

Hello, do you hunt all on private land? Do you and Jeremy own a big plot of land? I have been chain watching your videos but haven't seemed to find out yet. Thanks!
