We enjoyed hunting Sage Grouse for a few years but in Oregon you have to draw a permit and then are allowed only two birds for the season. After a rattlesnake came into our camp and bit one of my Britt's while she was tied I decided that it wasn't worth driving four hours from home and spending $1200 in vet bills to kill two birds. Speaking of dogs, we found the Sage Grouse, where we hunted, to be very dog shy as they flushed a long range when we had the dogs out. We could get much closer if we left the dogs in the camper. Perhaps they thought they were coyotes.
