As for grouse, although it is a big challenge and a lot of fun shooting them when they blast off and fly, it's not much fun biting down on the small pellets so I prefer to head shoot them with a 22. or arrow. I will draw the line at shooting morning doves sleeping in trees. When we were youths, we were discouraged from shooting grouse at dusk if they went to roost for the night, and pheasants if there was accumulated snow on the ground. If it's legal, to each their own conscience.

Funny thread this - reminds of one on refuge forums a little while ago - reams and reams of yanks who simply can't shoot a bird on the wing - they wait till they sit then hose them....

If I wasn't going to wing shoot birds, I wouldn't shoot birds. But to each their own I suppose.
