ZUZU got in a couple retrieves then on the way out got a look at the wildfire my son has been on since last night!!

Mills, I want to try western grouse hunting. I keep saying I am going to start out in Idaho or Montana and work my way back thru Minn, Wis, to the UP. Of course would have to try for sharptails in Mont. or the Dakotas. Chukars and Huns would be cool too.

I would imagine it is still pretty warm, even in the higher elevations. Ive been hunting grouse in the Appalachians since i was 13 yrs old (66 now), but that western grouse hunting would be al new to me.
