Mills,
I hope you get to chase grouse -- it's quite a challenge. Will you be hunting woodcock anywhere near where Archibald Rutledge lived/hunted? We have 'cock come though Northern Missouri on their way to Louisiana, and there are days when conditions are right that we get 25-35 flushes an hour...but only in great years.

BTW, I really enjoyed your article on "Beater" guns!
