The ruffed grouse is one of the most challenging game birds to hunt in the Northwoods, but you can stack the odds in your favor with the field-tested tips and techniques presented in this two-hour session.
Topics will cover the best places to find grouse; what to look for in grouse habitat, including where to find online habitat maps; hunting with and without a dog; and staying safe in the woods.
Gun handling; gun, shot, and choke selection; and shooting techniques will also be covered as we prepare to hunt these birds that can literally launch from 0 to 25 mph in the blink of an eye. Ruffed grouse season opens Saturday, Sept. 17, in the Northwoods.
