has enyone taken a grouse with a bow? if so how hard is it? Ive tried but where i hunt them their gettin shot at all the time so their pretty skittish>

I have heard of people taking pheasnt with bows, but never grouse. I probably wouldnt be able to because they are too fast for me with my shotgun

haha

We shoot grouse all the time with bows when we are elk hunting. We see grouse in the road so we get the blunts out and get some camp meat.

sounds fun

I've killed a bunch of grouse while elk hunting, I carry an arrow in my quiver just for grouse.

Here are a few pictures of a grouse a friend of mine took with his bow during the fall elk hunt a few years back.

I shoot them on the ground. when there in the fry pan groung ,air what's the difernce.

elkmaster,

It's doesn't make any difference in the pan.

Ok isshe you got me. :oops:

I took one with my bow! Like the others I was out elk hunting! Sure was good eatin'!!

My friend Zach shot one while he was bowhunting out of his tree stand for deer, he stuck it to the ground, it tried to fly away but spun around on the arrow for a few seconds and that was it.

I've never been able to take a shot at one with a bow. I have come close a few times, but they seemed to flush right when I drew so you have to be careful with movement. I seem to run across them more in the gun season for deer and they are perched in trees and looking the other way 20 yards from me. That is when I want the bow :evil:
