However you can totally tell the difference between the 2 species. The "Dusky Grouse" are more gray and the "Sooty Grouse" are more brown. We've ALL shot both of them and probably not even paid attention and I'm sure they taste the same too.I love me some BLUE GROUSE though. I would shoot Blues over Ruffed Grouse any day. Cant wait till Sept. 1st!!!!That's funny, I'd take a ruff any day of the week over a blue!Really??? Theres so much more meat to a blue than a ruffed. Don't get me wrong, anytime I see a ruffed grouse between sept 1 - dec 31 he's a goner....

14 DAYS TO GO! YEEEEEEE HAAAAWWWWWWWWWWW!!!
I'll never get used to the change either. They'll always be blue grouse to me. But they split them into two separate species, dusky grouse and sooty grouse.
The name game..seriously getting upset because they changed the name? These are spruce, francolin, or fools hens. Are you upset because they are known by three different names?
stupid jerk biologists, what the hell do they know anyway? I bet Obama had something to do with the name change

Look again Dave, They are spruce grouse. Look at the breast of the one in Addy's mouth.
