Being a Northern Michigan native, your post brings back the memories. For years I did have very good experiences hunting (and fishing) Michigan. A friend and I would often hunt grouse around Irons (just a little north of Baldwin). Sadly, those days are over and way long gone for many of us.
Displaced by the economy. I left immediately after college, as have most of my friends. That was 10 years ago and the economy has only further deteriorated. What a mess. If not fully dead, the American dream is coughing up blood in my home State. Glad to hear at least the grouse are thriving.
