Home Forums Birds & Dogs Upland Game Michigan Grouse

Made the trip to the north woods to pursue my favorite game bird of them all.

The hunting was tough, the shooting was even worse but we found a few birds (grouse and woodcock both) Dog work was also less than stellar but we managed. Here's a few pics from the short trip.

Very nicely done!! I did a UP trip years ago and had a blast. Wish I would have waited until after a freeze (mosquitos!) and woodcock was open though.

Well done…. Enjoyed the post and pics!!!!

Looks great!

Looks awesome.

Beautiful. Must have been a great time. My folks are from the Cadillac area. I have been there many times and have seen a ton of grouse while chasing these tiny little brook trout and an occasional medium sized brook trout. I always promised myself that I would take myself grouse hunting there but in the end, I broke my heart. And I was in that area last year in October but I still didn't go hunting. I'll have a hard time forgiving myself.

They can have their pheasant hunting. There’s just something about woodcock and grouse hunting in the north!
