Dr. Roland Kehr and Mickey Johnson present this comprehensive guidebook for bird hunters in Minnesota. Minnesota offers bird hunters classic grouse and woodcock hunting on enormous amounts of public land. With ruffed grouse near the top of their cycle, there is no better time to plan a trip to the Land of 10,000 Lakes. And as that name implies, the waterfowl hunting is also superb, with numerous wildlife production areas and accessible water. Throw in a smattering of pheasants, Hungarian partridge, and sharp-tailed grouse (and plenty of hunting ground available to the public) and you have one of the best bird hunting states in the country. As with all of the tiles in the Wingshooter's Guide Series, this book includes detailed distribution maps and habitat information for each species of upland bird; county by county breakdowns of hunting opportunities; and hub city information, including hotels that allow dogs, local sporting goods stores, restaurants, car repair, and guides. Everything a hunter needs to plan a trip is included in this book.
