Default Grouse in Wisconsin

Thought I would share a couple pics of Grouse I was fortunate to get while hunting in Northern Wisconsin last weekend.I met up with Dean Hanson last Friday and got to hunt with him in an area where he grew up for a couple days.These are the first Grouse I've ever hunted.One check off the bucket list,and got 2 neat birds I'm going to have mounted.A red phase,which was told hard to get in season and a nice gray phase.We saw quite a few birds everyday.Hope to be able to do this again next year.Im usually staring out the windshield of my combine this time of year but harvest went quick with no glitches so it worked out.Big thanks to my guide,Dean Hanson.Had a lot of fun.

My guide is famous.Even named a road after him.I think we were lost when we found it.

Congratulations on your first grouse, Jeff! Tell us what you took them with.

The Hanson boys are indeed famous, even beyond the confines of the Badger State. Elaine and I spent a great afternoon chasing Minnesota grouse on this now famous road.
