Woodcook are definitely still around. Yesterday 40+ woodcock flushes and 30+ grouse flushes. Didn't kill a lot of them and did shoot a few trees.

Thats impressive grouse guy. I flushed 9 grouse and 2 wc today, got shooting at about half of them and brought home 1 bird. I blame fumbling the safety on my new gun. lol It was a wet one but at least it was warm.

The woodcock were in covers we have found very good flights many other times in past years.
Well, I have a new one of them, too. Nice gun but I shoot badly with it -- cast off, and I shoot left-handed.Quote:
