"In any grouse hunter’s log, a double is a great event. This, of course, occurs when a brace of birds boils out simultaneously and you anchor both with as many shots. It is a neat trick because it requires skillful gun handling, because modern shooters rarely get an opportunity to attempt the coup, and because cover is usually thick enough to shield at least one of the pair...

…A double is just about the greatest thing that can happen to any dedicated grouse hunter.”

-- Frank Woolner, GROUSE and GROUSE HUNTING, Crown Publishers, 1970.
