On grouse, quail or dove just carefully feel along the neck until you feel a joint and just firmly pinch and slightly roll fingers and pop that joint. Bird generally succumbs very quickly and humanely this way.
On ducks have never had any luck whacking their head, they are just dang to tough or I just don't have heart to beat em that way. The best way I found was taught to me by our vet that also was a duck hunter. He said grab duck by breast facing up and take your thumb or both thumbs on side of bird and find the that pit right under where it meets the breast and squeeze very firmly. Your essentially compressing the heart and the animal will succumb in about 20 to 30 seconds once you learn how to do it. Keep squeezing for about another 20 to 30 seconds to just be sure.
