This Week’s Benelli On Assignment – Michigan Ruffed Grouse!
ACCOKEEK, MD —-(AmmoLand.com)- This week BOA host, Joe Coogan joins longtime outdoor writer and grouse guru, Nick Sisley on Michigan’s Upper Peninsula to pursue ruffed grouse and woodcock. Sisley believes the essence of hunting “upland kings” and “timber doodles” in the North Woods is more than meeting the challenges of thick cover and elusive birds, but must also include incredible dog work, upon which, success is so dependant.
Guided by grouse and woodcock enthusiasts and expert dog men, Bill Jacobs and Jim Clary, this hunt tests the mettle of men, equipment, clothing and dogs. This hunt clearly demonstrates how important reliable, lightweight guns like Benelli’s Ultra Light and Franchi’s I-12 semiauto and Renaissance over-and-unders are on a hunt like this, especially when the going gets tough. This exciting hunt is featured in Sisley’s articles appearing in the June/July 2009 issue of Gun Dog Magazine and the September 2009 issue of Gun Hunter Magazine.
