Walking around hoping to flush a grouse, partridge or pheasant has become my favorite type of hunting. Used to really be into whitetail and mule deer buck hunting but I gradually drifted away from that and the last few years have only hunted birds. I know guys that wouldn't waste their time looking for a bird and I know a few guys who only hunt birds.
I guess ideally a guy would have a drilling and focus on birds with the off chance of getting a shot at a big buck. That would be paradise.
But back to the original thought....
How many of you guys really anticipate upland bird hunting?
No Pheasants here to speak of.....too fuggin many coons (4 legged) get the eggs first
Pine Hens (Blue Grouse) on the mountain
Dumm as fugg
22 LR and you're done
Iffin you like the taste of a pine/fir cone
