Fixed - sorry - just cut n' pasted it from e-mail and corrected the word "registeration".

I can't make it that night, but the odds of winning a gun might be pretty good. This is a new location for them and it hasn't been well publicized.

Thanks for the link, Dean. I’ll put it on my calendar.

BTW I haven’t heard a grouse drumming up north in many years. I know that the population goes through regular cycles (12 or 13 years?), but there just doesn’t seem to be the number of birds as there were back in the 70’s and early 80’s. In contrast, the pheasant and even turkey populations have really increased.

Any idea what has knocked down the grouse?

The counts have been getting better. We had a really bad army worm infestation a few years back which has something to do with grouse. Also many wet, cold Springs which screws up the eggs.
