Man, something about the calm quiet vibes of the way this video was made really fits the way a lot of us feel about hunting. A lot of hunting videos have hard loud fast paced rock riffs and guys yelling about the hunt and sometimes it almost seems disrespectful to the hunt. This was really nicely done man.
Totally agree.
Well said
My sentiments exactly. Be respectful of the creatures and places we hunt.
Yeah, thanks for the video!
I’d have to agree, nice hunt, along with a nice meal at the end :)
This is EXACTLY the type of style I'm going to try and make my videos into. Beautifully edited, multiple clips of the grouse in their natural environment and then the clips of you guys hunting. Lovely video! Like a small documentary. Perfection.
I’m in Utah, the season opens after my birthday every year. Grouse hunting is quickly becoming my favorite hunting, right up there with shed hunting
me and my son are new hunters and love hunting grouse. this video gave me some useful tips at the beginning and an awesome looking recipe at the end. thank you!
I've been watching the grouse population slowly increase in my area over the last 10 years, Finally I'm seeing them every time I'm out hunting deer so now it's time to harvest a few. Love hunting them. Great video and the pot pie looks great . Cheers.
brought back memories hunting with my grandparents in the 90's. keep up the videos!
Great video! Love your editing! That pot pie is an awesome idea!
Great segment! Great ideas from you. Enjoyed the truck cap camper! Nice to see you and your father hunting . Reminds me of the late seventies when me and my father hunted. So MUCH FUN!!! OXBOW, MOOSELEUK POURTAGE, in the seventies. Now it more north for me like CHURCHILL ST, Francis , over by JOHNS BRIDGE area is good too.
Thanks Merton! I’ve actually got another truck camper build I just filmed for the new truck I got. Hope to have it out soon. So many great spots in northern Maine! Hopefully the populations continue as they have been the last few years!
Good job, Good boy💙💜❤
Jesse, your content is hands down the most enjoyable on youtube. Your videography, in the field as well as indoors, is fantastic. That is no small feat. Can't wait to see what else you have for us in 2022. Keep up the great work and keep smiling!
Delicious looking pie !! Looking forward to some of your ice fishing vids. And hitting the ice myself
Hope to have some filmed in the coming days so shouldn’t be too long I hope
Omg! This is a fantastic video! Not only great shooting by you and your dad,but the catch and cook is awesome! You nailed it man! Looking forward to more like this! You're an excellent cook btw! Thank you ,and I must try this sometime soon! Ice fishing next maybe?
Thanks, Jim! Very happy with how this one came together. These ones take a lot of time to make but I'll definitely have some more like it soon. If people enjoyed it. Yup planing out some ice fishing videos this week actually!
Great job guys, nice video. Growing up in Northern New England I spent many October days chasing Patridge and have such fond memories, I think I can still smell that damp fall air.
Many years now out West, chasing deer, elk and birds but almost every year I have visions and a longing to be patridge hunting in the North Woods.
Thanks for that little taste!
Hard work on this edit, really love your style. Will try this meal for sure. Keep them coming!
I have made that and it’s amazing prob the best way to introduce someone to grouse. You have had an amazing bird season👍🏻
Very true! Grouse is a great species to introduce people to wild game for sure. And it’s hard not to love a pot pie! Thanks for watching Josh! 🙏
@@MainelyOutDoors you bet watch all the time I am a sub. Great vids
@@joshdyer3670 plenty more to come!
Most grouse hunting in north west Montana is done just like this because the country is so big and they are taken while while traveling to and from deer and elk hunting spots.
same gauge I use,20 guage over under. Haven't been hunting in years though, I sure miss it. Its connecting to nature for me,plus I almost always went hunting with family so there's that part of the appeal too.
You have justice to those birds. Looks amazing!
That’s always my goal. I prepare a some good meals with them and use what It helps justify taking the life
You and your Pops make a good team. Gettin’ the job done!
We love the great content. Keep up the hard work.
I’ve never tried Grouse pie but my brother swears by it. 👍
Awesome video Jesse! Love hinting for grouse. Looking forward to some ice fishing content.
Thanks Matt. Should be gearing up to film some soon so keep any eye out for them!
Awesome 🤩
Good shootin, another trick is when you hear a drummer drumming or see him ruffed up try to find the hen and shoot her first. He's not focusing like normal and usually you can get him to. From my experience he's usually on the ground and the hen is up on a limb watching him. Another great video, your 20 is a beauty!
Thanks for that tip! I’ve never thought of that but definitely makes sense! I’ll keep that in mind for next season. Thanks for stopping by and Happy new year Shane!
Nice,,, I live up north near the hudson bay,, have the same birds here also,,, anyways when its raining or jus finished raining, i always find the birds in really thick bush, under the trees trying to stay dry,,,,, nice shotgun you got there (y) mossberg 500 ???
Not really that near,,, but pretty far inland away from the tundra,,,, boreal forest type land we got hwre
Awesome! Great video bub.
Edit: Also, great tip about holding still to make them nervous. Works with hare too sometimes.
Thanks! Yeah that’s always worked well for me it’s almost like they start to get in there own head and loose there cool. Otherwise I’d walk past far more of them
Great video. Great hunt and cookl! I love our state of Maine.
Thanks! Couldn’t agree more with you!
A hearty meal indeed!
oh yeah! no corners cut on that one haha! Thanks for watching Jeff!
Stopping is tge most important part
I once hiked an old log road and saw one standing in the middle of the road. I walked up to where it was and just stood in place and just kept and eye on one side of the road.
I saw 16 without taking another step.
It was old growth hardwoods and they were mostly on the ground and they were very camouflaged against the brown leaves on the ground.
You wouldn't see them just walking by
Excellent 👌
That pie looked very delicious and I’m sure it was , I will take all bets none barred , that Jesses wife never ever leaves him ,,,not too many men that can cook like that.
It definitely was Bobby! I love that dish hard to beat a pot pie! 😂 cooking her favorite dish definitely didn’t hurt my chances!!
looked fantastic
Thank you! Definitely a favorite of Maren an I
Awesome video man! would love to have your pot pie recipe!
Idk how you get such good footage of them while shooting em your the only youtuber I see that does that
All the close ups of the birds are ones that were only shot with the camera. I’d just film them instead of shooting too add to the shots I could use.
Oh nice
Wish we had grouse in SE Texas, would love to hunt them. Wonderful video, beautiful scenery.
Incredibly well put together video.
Hey Jessie, came across your channel about 6 months ago and have really enjoyed going through them. Love grouse, when I was guiding in Montana in the early 80s you could get close enough to get them with a rock and even a stick.Was wondering have you worked in the restaurant industry or had some training, you sure know your way around the kitchen. Keep the great videos coming.
Great to hear you’re enjoying the videos Micheal! We definitely still have some birds around here that are numb as rocks. I usually film those ones makes for great b roll. I actually have a biomedical background. So following a recipe is very similar to an experiment I find. It just clicks on my head and I enjoy doing it.
That’s looked so good lmaoo
That looked amazing!
Thanks Eric!
Love it ❤❤❤
Looks very tasty!
Grew up in the county and never saw that many birds. LOL .
The last few years up in the county have been the best I’ve ever seen for them! You’ll have no problem finding them in the big woods now!
That looks delicious man nice video 👍
Thank you 😋
That pot pie looks bomb nice job!
Mmmm I'm definitely making a grouse pot pie 😋🤤
I’d highly recommend it!
Dang, January in northern Maine and no snow on the ground. I guess that storm that went through DC and the east coast missed your neck of he woods...so far. 😬
Oh we definitely have snow now! This was filmed back in November. Thanks for watching Gary have a happy new year!
Ya that storm never hit New Brunswick to and there is like 4 feat of snow everywhere. This winter has been weird though because the snow won’t stay and that’s how I got a lot of my birds.
I’m coming over for supper looks really good
😂 you’ll have to fight Maren for the last peace then!
❆ I am surprised that there is no snow in Maine in January. 🌲
and the bag limit is five birds per day ? week ? month ? season ?
thank you.
👌
You have inspired me to become a UA-cam too but I don’t know what to use to edit my videos and I’m wondering what you use. Amazing video food looks so good I wish I was there.
That’s awesome! I use finalcut pro but I started with final cut I’d suggest that if your in the apple world or premiere Pro if not. Anything will do to get you started just learn how to use it and you’ll improve over time. Best of luck I’ll have to check them out when you make some
Thank you so much
@@donutdude7561 Anytime!
I was out today and saw a monster of a grouse it was so big it looked like a turkey with a short neck
My favourite hunting to do with my son!
A lot of people don't like to shoot grouse on the ground. I say why shoot in the air when you can shoot on the ground, I do.
Ever had a "flat fly" buzz off any of your birds? Had a few here in Nova Scotia this season... Must now abide my girlfriend's decree of no grouse in the house after one decided her hair was it's next host!
A flat fly? Can’t say I have, I’ve Never heard that term. Well that’s too bad because they’re definitely delicious maybe that’ll change her mind 😂
Jesse, could I get you to post or send me that recipe looks good and looking for another grouse dish to serve. Thanks in advance!! Keep up the great videography.
Ho que ça doit être bon !!!
c'était très bon! Merci d'avoir regardé!
Where I live it’s 10 chickens per person
Awesome video!!! Any plans on doin any ice fishing this year ?
Thanks Austin! Oh yeah big plans gearing up to film a bunch this new week!
What kind of choke do you use for grouse and shot size? Thanks!
I like a mod choke and 6 shot
What app is that on the ipad?
I like your channel I got a chicken too
Only got one this season because I don’t got to good of a place to hunt them
Hey ones better than none! Some times it can be hard to truck down spots but it gets easier in the later seasons since they tend to stick close to the roads
Could you comment the ingredients you used? I finally got some grouse to try this recipe with but not entirely sure of what you used.
Do you have too cook grouse well done?
Nice definitely dont have those in San Diego , are they wild or planted
All the more reason to make a trip to Maine one day! They have been very plentiful the last few years
Wild
You don't have to go across the country. They're found in Oregon and Washington, too.
What map/GPS App are you using?
That’s my dads but I think he uses GAIA
Say to the Father:💙💜❤
Hi, I wrote the Second Father!
Do you see many woodcock up there?
Great video!
I do but I’ve never really hunted them maybe I will when I get a dog
@Kevin- definitely, It can be really good if you hit it at the right time during migration. And I agree with Mainely,- finding them can be a real pain in the ass- both before and after the shot without a dog. Im guessing you aren’t new to woodcock hunting. So you’re welcome for the info you already had 😂 Happy hunting bud.
Send me the feathers!!! Please
I always shoot ‘em when I’m bear or deer hunting. They are the most random bird, They will be in the most random places.
Have a favorite 20 gauge for grouse?
You mean shot size? Or the actual gun
@@GrimReaperz2o9 Actual gun. Looking for this fall. I have so many grouse on my land in Lake county.
State and county?
Maine united states
Driving down the road and shooting grouse on the ground and out of trees.....very sportsmanlike.
I was looking for a comment like this. I've been wondering is this type of hunting normal in all states of the US? It always looks so weird to me, because where I hunt (northern Europe) hunting like this is highly illegal. Shooting birds near roads is considered too easy and too dangerous. You cant even carry firearms in the car cabin without unloading them and putting them in a case or cover. After stopping the car you have to walk a good distance away from the road until you are allowed to shoot. If you did this here, you would get a hefty fine, and probably lose your weapons as well as your license to hunt. In theory it would even be possible to lose the car you used. We even have a nickname for people hunting like this in Finnish language, "maantiemetsästäjä", translated "roadhunter". This is a very negative word to describe someone, basically calling them poachers. I mean, no offense to these guys. But it just looks weird.
@@torttulithe gunn has to be unloaded and it's illegal to shoot if cars are on the road , and poacher? Really? These are legal shots and how is shooting at a road with no cars for miles dangerous?
@@Tha-Jonkler Yes, it is illegal to carry a loaded firearm in a car. It has to be unloaded and in a cover. It is illegal to shoot from a (public)road, an animal that is on a road, or over a road. When hunting birds like grouse, it also applies on private roads. It is also illegal to shoot an animal shortly after stopping your vehicle or to use a vehicle as cover.
Birds gather near roads to eat sand, and are not naturally afraid of cars. It is really easy to shoot great amount of birds near roads with little to no effort. This is why it is viewed as bad sportsmanship.
Is it dangerous? Well, yeah, if you compare it to shooting in the woods. A bullet or a ricochet might travel miles on a road. There's more people on the roads. I've been myself in a situation where I saw a fox right in front of my car when driving a back country road. Next thing I knew. someone behind the next corner shot the fox that was just meters away from my car at the moment. Because of the corner he saw the fox but not my car. I count that dangerous.
These might be legal shots over there, but here it is illegal.That is why hunting like this seems so strange to me. Here it is not only bad sportsmanship, but also illegal = poaching. Im not saying you are in the wrong, Im just saying this is why it seems strange to me.
Finnish hunters nearly wiped out the grouse population 70+ years ago by hunting back roads from cars. Now we have very strict rules… including that if flush multiple birds you should shoot the slowest/weakest. For Americans, Finnish grouse hunting is weird because we often shoot roosted birds with a rifle (safety!) and hunters will use over unders with one barrel a shotgun barrel (flush) and the other a 22 rifle barrel (tree).
@@ypgrohn I'd say most just use an over'n under with two shells as shooting a grouse out of a tree with a 22 seems impractical
What's banned?
Catch⁉️
Ои плин : Такуюю крастотуу Загубиить !! Когда вы же - уже Нажретеесь ??
Shooting a grouse on the ground…really??? 😮
Never saw a hunter shoot a bird on the ground.
Dude shut up it’s normal
Shooting grouse standing on the road or anywhere on the ground is not hunting
Explain your definition of hunting?
Did you shoot the first bird standing on the road ? Come on man !
If it's not your first grouse you don't shoot it on the ground...
I’d agree completely, it ruins the fun and is unfair.
Shooting birds on the ground what a joke
Yes, you should wait for them to flush.
They shouldn’t be hunted on a road or shot on the ground. Leave them for real hunters.
Here’s a suggestion for you. Hunt how you enjoy hunting and allow others to do the same. If you feel passionate about it you should contact your local representatives instead of harassing hunters who are following the law
@@MainelyOutDoors Very well said! I’d like to also mention the countless awesome memories I have of riding around with friends/family heater hunting for grouse. Makes me smile just thinking about it! Too much damn fun!
We don't shoot them on the ground where I come from, but we don't hunt deer with dogs like they do in Southern coastal areas, either. I figure if it's traditional and sustainable, then go for it.
These always one 🐴hole congratulations today it’s you
Good ol' ground swatting. In Wisconsin, unless you're using your EDC, have enough respect for the bird to walk up until they flush. WTF?!
I’m from Wisconsin as well and it is really just unsportsmanlike to shoot them off the ground and not wait for them to flush.
This is the dumbest comment I’ve read in a while
@@tammykennedy4165 This is the dumbest response I've EVER read! Lol. Must be a woman writing it...
