I've missed them, in a couple of ways.
Been a few years here also.

There are more grouse this year than I ever remember seeing and turkeys everywhere too.


I have nothing clever to put here.

Year-over-year I would say our numbers are consistent, I probably see on average 4 birds every time I'm out. If you want to see more grouse... bowhunt if you want to see less... hunt them

I'll be in Bergland on Wednesday for 4 days of grouse hunting, hoping your info holds true.

I just nicely got back from a two hour stroll through some of the most classic grouse covers New England has to offer. I flushed two birds. I've seen some incredible years and some bad ones. Locally, this is as bad as I can remember.
