i've flushed 5 birds so far.  no shots fired yet.  one was really stupid..i saw my car about 15yds away so i unloaded my shotgun, took another step, flushed a bird into a relatively open area and couldn't shoot it.  oh well.  

i've been hunting the brule river state forest.

Haven't flushed any grouse this year...haven't been out all that much though.  A couple of squirrels and that's it.  When I hunt, I take a "shoot any [legal] game animal I see" philosophy.

Most of my hunting is around the county land on County I, right next to the Machickanee flowage...we own some lakefront property but it's puny compared to across the road.

i got one the other morning.  i got it on the ground but hit the wing..which is good because the meat was untouched.  what was bad was i had to catch it by hand.  heheh.

also got 4 deer ticks on the dog, and 1 on myself.  won't be going back to that spot.

dog caught a small mouse too.  i made her let it go..don't want her to get tapeworms.

Sounds cool.  I am a big pheasant hunter, but the release this year is only going to be 10,000 birds statewide due to the budget crises.  I have never tried Grouse.  If you want some company on a weekend drop me an email.

i flushed 2 more today.  almost shot a deer too.  it was a little windy so i don't think it heard me walking towards it.  it was bedded down a couple feet off the trail.  it jumped when i was only a few yards away.  

if you're in the area (north) i'm ready to go any time.
