NY Catskills grouse guide recos?

As a registered hunting guide I know most guides will not take local clients. This as a common practice among guides . Me also

Steve, please explain your statement "as a registered hunting(?) guide most will not take local hunters to guide."

I believe I understand that, my guess would be because the local guide doesn’t want his hard worked for coverts ruined with other locals.
