Well done....I've found no game Bird that compares to the Eastern or Appalachian Ruffed Grouse...
To have good Grouse hunting "behind the house" is a blessing not to be taken lightly....
People fish on the weekends, I mow trails, disk trails, plant clover, etc. the tax man loves me but having a little chunk of dirt managed for wildlife is sure rewarding. I rarely shoot birds here but when I do it is with something “cute”. The last birds I shot here were with an old American Arms 410 double with hammers. I shot one on the fly, wiped the gun down and put it away forever.
