Any acreage you can lease for $2 an acre is goat pasture. No one will ever disturb the grouse.
Sage grouse are the most stinking bird I’ve ever cleaned. They are dark meat and remind me of carp. Eat the cedar shingle. They fly low and slow and with 6 shot or 5 you can jack them up. Now coyotes, skunks, ravens and fox kill a hell of a lot more grouse than oil fields. Wind mills piss me off so much I won’t start it up. The birds are making a come back because we don’t hunt them as hard. Regulation and just people don’t hunt as hard as they used too. I quit hunting Huns and Chukars because we had some hard winters. A male Chukar is beautiful, they cook great and taste good but I like to see them in my yard and the pheasant have struggled too. Farmers farm hard. Not much cover left for birds in the winter. If you rely on the shit you read you don’t know much about what this issue is. Get rid of predators and restrict the seasons a little, and forget the climate change hoax. Tom, SE Idaho learn, it live, it love it. If you run from the crap your in don’t bring it here!! Fart Weasel.
