Ruffed Grouse are hunted in a woods. They often times flush behind some sort of obstruction. Many times all one sees is a flash/or glimpse. I used to be a pretty good grouse shot on the wing, but now that I am older and on medicare/social security, occasionally I can't even get my safety off before they are gone. Having hunted both grouse and wild quail for many years, in my opinion grouse are much harder to shoot than quail which mostly get up in more open areas.....no matter which bird is faster.

Socialism is almost the worst.
