CasterlyRock:
Grouse are a pretty easy target, they don't have a lot of self preservation instinct. I use the magnus head choppers with flu flus for turkey with my bow, they fly like laser beams and scream so loud but it's fun. Don't know if they would perform ok with a grouse or just turn them to dust.


Judos are probably the way to go though.

chukardogs:
Head northeast about 4 to 6 hours. Find mountains in the 4 to 6000 foot elevation range. Find gated roads that'll take you up onto the rocky ridges and start flingin arrows. The birds have been plentiful the last few years. I haven't used a bow in years but I've killed far more Grouse without my dog's and my 22 rifle than I have with my bird dogs and a shotgun.
 Please don't tell my bird dogs I said that.

I killed more in the spokes of my motorcycle as a kid than I ever have hunting on the west side

I am sure you have seen more grouse with a dog than without in the same amount of of time. That is if it's a bird dog

Didn't say "seen," said killed. Kinda like in dead, ready for oil, spices and into my frying pan or grill over the fire.
