There’s a recent video on YouTube, showing a group of wildlife biologist from some western states doing all of the things that offend people here. Not the least of which is climbing a tree to shoot a spruce hen off the branch.

Clearly it boils down what’s legal.

And then each person is free to add the restrictions they want.

Some famous writer wrote of shooting grouse in the “pre-flight condition”.

The thumping of a big bore four wheeler mimics the drumming of a youthful, ruffed grouse so well, it literally draws them to the road to fight.

If I wanted to run around in October and November, shooting young males off the log in grouse country, I would stay home.

Hunting then in shorts is my style restriction.
