A real upland bird hunting guru returns to share his hard-earned wisdom. Steve "Grouseman" Grossman guides on the South Dakota prairies and Minnesota woods, and will offer us tips on everything from keeping dogs cool early in the season, to getting them to go "your way."

We'll trade stories on epic dog work and incredible hunts, must-have gear, strategies and habitat for sharptails, ruffed grouse, and woodcock, from food sources to what makes for birdy edges, handling a dog in the thick stuff and shooting better in it too.

The "Handle It" segment offers tricks you might use to mentally challenge your dog, and followers chime in with how they reward a bird dog for a job well done.
