Not sure if I posted these. Sometimes you shoot grouse where it is way to steep to go get them yourself.  :chuckle:

Yep, learned that "grouse rope" trick a few years back. Even when solo, I will rappel down a hill after a downed grouse, then walk/pull myself straight up the hill to my hitch on my truck. We used to pass on the birds that treed on those Freaking steep sidehills, now we bang them, and bail off the edge to pick them up. I leave the shotgun in the truck and slide my Ruger on my hip and have put it to use a few times going after a downed bird. (Besides, the kids think it is really cool...heh heh heh... :chuckle:
