Thanks for the responses. I had hadn't heard of this bird until a couple of years ago. What little I have read on it suggests that it might be responsive to calling. Calling wild turkeys in the spring is my favorite type of hunting (when the birds are vocal). Mainly curious as to how vocal the Capercaillie is and if it would be possible to hunt them in the same manner. Maybe one of the Scandinavian members will chime in after awhile.
By the way, congratulations on your new forum. I have enjoyed the posts on European hunting from the other forums in the past. Now they will be a lot easier to find.
