Kenny, whether you hunt by yourself, or with others, just go, and enjoy. It will take a while, but you will learn what makes grouse and woodcock cover, and how to hunt it, and how to be comfortable in it. Take a GPS, or 2, and a compass and KNOW how to use them--the google earth and viewranger apps on invaluable and you can start scouting for covers right now, long before you get up there. I have hunted the UP and over around Phillips for over 30 years and you will flush more birds in a day than you will find in Ohio all season. It will do wonders for your dog. I once had job offers to run the eye dept. in Park Falls clinic many years ago, but had to decline.
I will be in the UP just a few miles from Rich, the last 2 weeks of October.
