We are out elk hunting and seeing 10-20 grouse a day without trying. They are thick this year.
And where is this? It's a big state :dunno: :chuckle: :chuckle: :chuckle:

Now laborday weekend I was up in the NE corner of the state bear hunting and the number of grouse we saw was staggering. Hurt my heart not being able to have grouse for dinner.

Seems like pretty normal grouse numbers around Yakima and Kittitas counties this year.

Tons of grouse on my property. Sitting in my tree stand I had 8-10 walking around me for a while

Shotgun a 20-gauge Franchi Instinct. Load a low-base No. 6 Federal.

They look better in the pot anyway.
Fried grouse strips,fried potatoes,with fresh garlic and onion.
