The golden jack-o-lantern
with its smiling or leering face
deserves a noble demise, it
seems a great waste to just
discard it when the Hallowe'en
fun is over. However, it should
be looked after right away
before the spooks and goblins
work their magic and cause it to
Bpoil! To help you use.,the

Dick Dietz of the Remington

nature has reclaimed with a

“During the summer months,
grouse may drift out to
surrounding hillsides, par-

ticularly if these include some -

ample patches of berries, What
kind? Well, for grouse it seems
to be ‘any ‘kind? variety. .

this is triggered by a change In

change is caused by the ‘sudden

Whatever the cause, when you —
' find a ‘grousy looking’ area, |

_search for those spots that are
really too thick to walk through,
and then walk through them. If
the vicinity holds any birds at
‘all, that’s probably where
they'll be,

“The most -gensible and .,
productive way to hunt grouse -

is with a good, upland dog to
help you find and retrieve the
birds. Somehow, a slow, steady
pace often seems to entice
grouse to hold a bit more, until
your dog is close enough to
-scent and (sometimes) point
them, and for. you to
(sometimes) drop them.
“On the other. hand, when
‘walking up’ grouse without a
dog, an. erratic stop and start
“pace will sometimes move a
hiding bird to lose patience with
the whole game and flush wild,
Of course, he usually reserves
this tactic until you've passed
him or have stopped to tle a boot
lace. .

“In any event, always mark
the flight directions ‘of an
escaping bird. Grouse seldom
fly more than a hundred yards

- at a time and a second stalk is
. frequently worth the try.

“We should also remind you
(for the thousandth time you've
heard it) of Mr. Ruff's ability to
maneouver the biggest obstacle
around between you and ‘him
faster than you can flick off:

safety. Consequently, most -

birds are downed within twenty-
five yards or not at all. This
dictates the use of quick-
handling, fast-pointing shotguns
with open chokes, A lightweight
20 gauge using No. 8 shot has
become a most popular choice.

“Lastly is the reminder that
this highly challenging game
‘bird is also one of the most
delicious, That’s a hard com-
bination to beat.”
