Rainy day/ beater

You guys staying home on rainy days should reconsider. I have found Grouse tend to move really well in a light rain, especially when it starts early morning. Best day I had this year was in the rain.

Russ, is that gun over at my friend Jerry's shop?
Will, I too have done very well on rainy days, despite being told that grouse dont move well in the rain. That said if it is a really cold steady rain, I may spend the day driving around looking for new covers and hoping that the rain lets up for at least the evening hunt.

I agree. Rain works- especially light rain. The dogs get scent better when it is damp. Many (most) of my best grouse and rooster hunts have been in drizzle or light rain. The gun will survive any weather out there w/o injury. Use what you shot best.

Gary,
what size shot did you use on the moose?--and did your dog retrieve it
