Download or read book Fifty Five Years a Grouse Hunter written by Frank Jezioro and published by Wilderness Adventures Press. This book was released on 2017-10 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If you ran into Frank Jezioro in the grouse woods, you wouldn't guess that he served as the director of the West Virginia Department of Natural Resources under two governors which is practically unheard of until he stepped away into retirement. You wouldn't know that as a friend and confidant of West Virginia Senator Joe Manchin, a hunting and fishing buddy, Frank serves as a liaison and conduit between the senator and the myriad hunting and conservation groups seeking to have their voices heard on Capitol Hill. What you would know is that you'd be looking at a real grouse hunter. You'd be looking at a man who knows how to breed and train grouse dogs, building them from the ground up, because for Frank, grouse hunting is all about the dogs. His setters and pointers over the years have been the best anyone could ask for. And they've had to be in the up-and-down Appalachian grouse country where Frank lives and hunts. But he doesn't just hunt there. Frank's chased ruffed grouse in Canada and after sampling New England and all the Lake States, he has settled on Michigan, and every October will find him there, and too rarely I'll be there with him. This book is the distilled knowledge and experience of a man who has pursued this King of Game Birds for the better part of six decades and counting. He knows the bird, the covers, the dogs, and the guns. Spend time with this book, and you'll come away perhaps not knowing as much as Frank Jezioro does, but you'll know a whole lot more than you did.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Like that earlier grouse hunter Aldo Leopold, Mark Parman takes to the woods when the aspens are smoky gold. Here, in an evocative almanac that chronicles the early season of the grouse hunt through its end in the snows of January, Parman follows his dog through the changing trees and foliage, thrills to the sudden flush of beating wings, and holds a bird in hand, thankful for the meal it will provide. Distilling twenty seasons of grouse hunting into these essays, he writes of old dogs and gun lust, cover and clear cutting, climate change, companions male and female, wildlife art, and stumps. A Grouse Hunter's Almanac delves into the mind of a hunter, exploring the Northwoods with an eye for more than just game. "Notable and quotable. Parman stakes out original territory and provides a vivid snapshot of the Northwoods."—John Motoviloff, author of Wisconsin Wildfoods: 100 Recipes for Badger State Bounties "Extremely rich and detailed.
