How's the grouse hunting in Ft Collins/Boulder?

[Bluegrassvw]

Just curious how the grouse population is and the hunting?

Thanks

Those are both cities. College towns. Firing a shotgun will most certainly have you arrested.

Also, I doubt there's a grouse to be found within city limits. Maybe some flying rats around pearl street though.

Hmmmm. I’ve seen seagulls and pigeons! Lots of summer dresses. No grouse.

Guess I should add some clarity, I am merely using the towns as geographic landmarks. Grouse hunting in city limits in most areas is really hard. With the only plus being you can drink a Starbucks while kicking trash to raise a bird.

Non existent....go a few hours West.

I see grouse all the time, even on my property….but there’s no hunt-able public anywhere close.

I had a grouse in my backyard about five years ago. I think I lost the pictures though.

We had the porch door open and the little dude walked up damn nearly into my kitchen.

There are grouse on storm mountain but I can't ever find them when actually hunting.

I’ve seen a few in national forest land west of boulder but never spent any time hunting them. Just seen em while hiking or snow showing or something.
