Dean,
There are 2 pretty good books on woodcock that have not been mentioned yet. One is "Woodcock Shooting" by Edmund Davis; it was originally a private printed book from around 1910 but has since been reprinted. The second one is "Making Game An Essay on Woodcock" by Guy de la Valdene. That book is a very different read but one that I found very interesting and enjoy greatly.
Unfortunately I have nothing to offer on grouse, not only are there none in Delaware and are protected anyhow, but I never had the opportunity to hunt any elsewhere.
