So I totally fell in love with bird hunting 4 years ago. 2 Years ago Sadie, my GSP came into my life and made me the proud owner of a great dog with a great nose. There is nothing like seeing a dog do what it was bred to do and the joy that they get out of it.

I have only hunted preserves in NJ where the birds are usually sluggish, tame, and expensive.

I really want to give Grouse a try. I know it is addicting but I am willing to take my chances. The proposition of truly hunting wild birds is irresistible for me.

Is there anyone out there who might want to educate a mid 30's grouse rookie with a day or 2 in the field?

There's a few beers and a nice dinner in it for any takers.

You can email me at wbumbernick@hotmail.com if you would rather not post.

Onthehook,
I would be happy to introduce you to my addiction. I too hunt GSP with my guide service. If you want to tag along on a hunt, I'll teach you some tricks. I'll be away for the next few days, so don't expect a instant reply, but when I get back, I'll hit you up. Just know that it takes some season's before GSP's learn not to bump birds. Grouse don't like to be crowded by bird dogs. I trust you want to hunt in PA?

I have sent you an email with my cell phone number in it. Please call me at your convenience. I am looking forward to it.
