This magnificent new book celebrating two of America’s greatest game birds is the pinnacle of one man’s lifetime devotion to ruffed grouse (Bonasa umbellus) and American woodcock (Scolopax minor), what he calls the “classic combination” of upland gunning. It has been a passionate pursuit for Timothy C. Flanigan.

It’s all here: natural history, anatomy, breeding and nesting, habitat preferences, predators, food and feeding habits; selecting shotguns and loads, improving your shooting skills, training and keeping dogs; identifying productive coverts, how to work a covert effectively, the importance of hunting edges, following up on flushes; early-season strategies, hunting in the snow, hunting in the rain, best time of day for maximum points and flushes—and a great deal more.
