Anyone have any knowledge of Grouse hunting in the Nova Scotia or the surrounding Area? Any good hunting guides?
Thanks

How about a good guide in Maine? Is there good grouse hunting?

There is fabulous grouse hunting (to say nothing of fine woodcock hunting) in Maine. Google "Maine hunting camps" or Maine hunting guides"

This auction for a New Brunswick hunt closed on July 31st, but the post has good photos and guide info:

This guy is a good Maine grouse/woodcock guide:

Bob Foshay
207-845-3162

He hunts in the central Maine area, on a lot of traditional coverts.

This place can hook you up with some guides:

I've never hunted with them, but I met one of his guides at a shoot a few weeks ago. The guy seemed to be very serious about bird hunting. The area he hunts is probably more big woods hunting - clearcuts, gravel pit, tote roads, etc.

If you're looking for a camp, I would recommend this place:

The owner is a great guy and it's a fun place - more like staying at a buddies place than staying at an actual camp. Libby's & Bradford are also up around there and they are good places to stay. That's all big woods hunting, though.

BTW: a lot of the guys who guide birds in Maine are deer or bear guides first. Birds are not their focus. IF you book a guide, be sure he is a bird hunter.

I would suggest Leen's lodge. Nice folks and nice dogs.
