#45 | Among The Aspen, Hunting Grouse and Woodcock in Wisconsin with Mark Parman – Project Upland Podcast
Nick Larson is the host and creator of the Project…
On this episode of the Project Upland Podcast, I’m joined by Mark Parman, author and grouse and woodcock hunting aficionado from Wisconsin.
Mark and I talk about his upland hunting story, how he fell in love with grouse and woodcock hunting, the books he’s authored and a whole lot more.
During our conversation Mark and I chat about how he got into writing and eventually released two books on grouse and woodcock hunting in Wisconsin, A Grouse Hunter’s Almanac and Among The Aspen. We share some upland bird hunting stories as well as the usual bird dogs, shotguns and upland birds chatter. We also discuss the current state of grouse and woodcock hunting in Wisconsin as it relates to concerns over West Nile Virus and the shortened 2018 hunting season. Finally, we talk about some tips, tactics and strategies for targeting and hunting grouse and woodcock in the North Woods.
About Mark Parman and his books:
“Mark Parman is the author of A Grouse Hunter’s Almanac and Among The Aspen and a member of the Ruffed Grouse Society, American Woodcock Society, and Loyal Order of Dedicated Grouse Hunters. He taught English for many years at the University of Wisconsin-Marathon County in Wausau. He lives in northern Wisconsin.”

Nick Larson is the host and creator of the Project Upland Podcast. He and his family, which includes a pair of English setters, reside in Duluth, Minnesota. Naturally, his favorite pursuit is upland bird hunting. From the northern forests of the upper great lakes to the prairies of the west, he chases adventure across the uplands wherever his bird dogs and the people he meets inspire him to go.
Enjoyed the episode. Keep up the great work bringing different topics to the discussion. Project Upland has rekindled the fire in me to get back out there with my dog. Unfortunately, I’m stuck in a state that doesn’t offer good bird hunting but I love to travel. Hope to try chuckars soon.
