I never feel "alone" when I hunt by myself. That's how I began and, coming from a family of non-hunters (I didn't say anti-hunters) I was out there by myself (quite enjoying myself and all that nature had to teach me) most of the time until I was in my late thirties or early forties. I don't hunt with a dog these days so two or three guns in the grouse covers with you will always produce more flushes per mile. For me, these days, upland hunting is just more enjoyable for several reasons with a companion or two.
