    Want to try Grouse hunting

    in Small Game and Predator Hunting

    Posted

    I started 0/14, on my very first hunt for them, when I was 14 years old.  I was using the 16 ga Ithaca model 37, that my grandad left me when he passed, with a modified choke barrel.  I have yet to kill anything with that combination.
     I mounted a scope on the receiver, a few years later, so it will never see any more grouse action.  It has not failed me once on a deer, using the smooth bore , no/choke deerslayer barrel, since I put the 1.5x Weaver on the receiver.
    My other grouse hunts been with 16 gauges also, most with a Stevens Springfield side by side choked I/C and mod.  I have killed about 25 with that and missed about 5.  I took my dads Browning sweet 16 with mod choke on just one hunt, where I shot twice and killed two.
    I also may have taken a couple with rifles, one with a .22, while I was squirrel hunting, and another with a 150 gr Federal Classic 30/06, while I was deer hunting.  There wasn’t much left to eat from that one, so I won’t be trying that again.  

    I had an awesome spot in Hume, havent seen it in 15 years though. Theres were ten or more Chevy Corvaires in the woods lined up, just rusting away

    Did you go up to the beer tent last night ?  How was the band.  I liked it a lot better when they had Genny beer, but they switched over to Labatts about 25 years ago.  At least the blue light lime, that has been available the last 5 years, had been tolerable.  That, like Genny, is made from pure Hemlock lake water.  Any other, of that Labbats crap that I drink, gives me a headache shortly after the first sip. 
    No matter for me this year, half way across the state, where it’s all Yuengling and Fat tire.

    Its Bud Light and Blue Light or the IPA. The band was great. Ill be back tonight

    Not a big fan of this one.  Too much hoppy bitterness for a lager.  I definitely see why Vitto Mortgenson asked for a Genny cream, as he was looking at a Yeungling sign in Philly, in the movie History of Violence.

    Hoppy bitterness? Are you pouring your own lead sinkers?
