My First Grouse

[NoLimit99]

LOL sad as this might be this is my first blue grouse i've harvested. Was told by my friend & his dad who were hunting with me up in princeton and who have hunted for many years, that it's the biggest blue grouse they have seen be taken. This was a pretty heavy blue grouse, so they were impressed and I was proud as a pee cock. I also took some ruffs that trip as well will post them up as well.

Oh did I mention this was also my first time ever gutting or cleaning anything.

And here's the end result...lol

And here's my ruffs with my 410/.22 over under I used to harvest them all

This trick works like a charm! Just make sure you do it before Rigamorteus kicks in, otherwise it don't work as good.
Congrats on your first Chicken!
