Hi Unregistered,
On July 29th, this site will be moving..! No, really - it's "moving" to another physical location - including servers, gateways, routers - everything - including my coffee cup...
So, from the date of July 29th through July 30 or 31 (shooting for these dates, but - as always, I'm at the mercy of my ISP who has to install the lines to the new location - and we actually get them running ;) ). But - this site, cloud servers and main web will be OFF LINE.
Now, please save these dates!! Please - don't be "that guy" who emails me on the 30th to tell me you "can't open the Parker Website". I'll already know it is offline - and also know that you are "that guy"...
I'll take this notice up and down over the next week or so - and leave it up during the final few days before shutting it off on the 29th..
John D.

Finding any grouse in Ohio?? I hunt Belmont, Jefferson, and Monroe counties and find very few birds, and decline to shoot those I find, but doubt my conservation efforts would have any effect.

I have never hunted Grouse in Ohio. I am actually living in northern Michigan now. I have heard that SE Ohio used to be wonderful when all the farms in the hills were overgrowing. I was in athens last year and I don't know that I saw a single spot of secondary growth forest.
My barrels are 28" how about yours? Would love to see your gun as well. What adorns your floor plate?
John

John, after reading your post and Harold's reference to Ohio grouse, I couldn't help responding, even though my comments are off the original topic. I went to school in Athens (many, many years ago) and continued to go back to hunt grouse for years around Nelsonville/Athens until the bird numbers dropped too much to justify the drive from Missouri. I miss so much my Ohio grouse coverts. I remember 25 flush days and lots of places to hunt with decent grouse habitat. Like so many other things related to hunting, "those were the days..."
Thanks to both of you gentlemen for bringing this up.
