Fifty-Five Years a Grouse Hunter by Frank Jezioro Pdf
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.
Ecology and Management of Appalachian Ruffed Grouse by Dean F. Stauffer Pdf
A comprehensive overview of all aspects of grouse ecology and management in the central and southern Appalachians, summarizing findings of the Appalachian Cooperative Grouse Research Project. Topics covered include basic biology and ecology re nesting and brood survival; survival factors; food habits and nutrition; home ranges and dispersal; population and habitat management; the future of grouse in the region. The ecology and management of ruffed grouse is well understood for their core range where aspen is dominant and integral to their well-being. But, what of ruffed grouse that occur where aspen doesn't provide for their annual needs? Ecology and Management of Appalachian Ruffed Grouse presents a comprehensive overview of all aspects of grouse ecology and management in the central and southern Appalachians and summarizes the findings of the Appalachian Cooperative Grouse Research Project. From 1996 through 2002, investigators captured, released and followed the fate of over 3000 grouse on 12 study sites from Rhode Island to North Carolina. The primary goal was to understand factors, including hunting, that affect grouse survival, but in the process a substantial amount of additional information was discovered about grouse ecology in the Appalachians. The book covers the following topics: basic biology and ecology related to nesting and brood survival; factors affecting survival; food habits and nutrition effects on ecology; home ranges and dispersal; roosting ecology; population and habitat management; and, grouse management on private lands and the future of grouse in the central and southern Appalachians. This book should appeal to serious students of grouse ecology and management, game bird enthusiasts, and those individuals who are interested in natural history of birds in general.
"A basic shooting book by a writer-shooter who shares with his readers a lifetime of experience in the fields, the pines, the birches, the alder swamps, and the brushy borders, in pursuit of grouse, pheasant, woodcock, and other upland game."--Dustjacket.
Idaho Ruffed Grouse Hunting by Andrew Marshall Wayment Pdf
Ruffed grouse hunting is to bird hunting what fly fishing is to fishing--the pinnacle of the sport. Grouse hunters are a diehard lot consumed by chasing evasive birds through impenetrable thickets. Back east, grouse hunting has a rich, long-standing literary history, with great authors such as Burton Spiller, William Harnden Foster, Grampa Grouse and many others. Tapping into and carrying on this literary tradition, hunter and author Andrew Wayment offers stories from years of grouse hunting throughout the Gem State. Grouse hunters everywhere will relate to and enjoy this intimate look into "ruffin' it in Idaho."
When Andy and his best friend are caught up in the turmoil of changes in the coalfields in the middle of the twentieth century, they take extremely different routes to improving means of extracting coal from the earth-one through mechanization and the other through unionization-and become bitter enemies. Josh loves Ellen, his wonderful little schoolmate with the crossed eyes, and he promises her that they will always be together. He leaves his depressed area, seeking a better life. But he keeps returning to the shadow of the Stoneface landmark. Each time he is drawn back, a more powerful force drives him to leave again. Young Reverend Hawk, an ex-soldier and ex-drunk with a shameful past, finds romance and rancor in the Bible Belt, when he is assigned, against his will, to return to the hometown he dislikes, to take over a problematical church. He is startled to learn that all of his predecessors have died strangely. So he must race against time to unravel all the mysteries before he becomes the next victim.
