I was out deer/pheasant hunting on the weekend, I haven' t seen a sharptail grouse in about 20 years. Well, I shot 2 out of a tree with my .22 mag and saw a flock of about 50 along a back road. Anyone else seeing a resurgence of sharpies this year? The pheasant population is doing remarkably well up here this year too. How are the birds in your neck of the woods? JDinAB
