Mid-Atlantic:
RGS & AWS Highlights
Do you want to see grouse and woodcock prosper in this region?
Promotion ends in:Â
Steeped in history and rich with grouse hunting culture, the Mid-Atlantic has long been associated with ruffed grouse habitat.
Landowners and hunters in this area may fondly recall hunting ruffed grouse in the area many years ago, but have noticed their growing absence and watched prime grouse habitat disappear. This has spurred a real sense of urgency for Ruffed Grouse Society and American Woodcock Society (RGS & AWS) and its members in this region.
