As a dedicated conservationist and experienced upland hunter Tripp delivers the powerful line of “Its our responsibility to get these folks in the woods”. “I find this to be one of the absolute pleasures of my life right now. And every one of these is a treasure. Truly.” – Perry Masotti Tripp ventures across upstate New York bird hunting what he keys in as wild birds. Set on the adventures of the northeast landscape, he stresses that in a world of hunting preserves and instant satisfaction this tradition can not be replicated or replaced. “For Tripp Way, Northeast Regional Director of The Ruffed Grouse Society, ruffed grouse and his pursuit of the bird represents many of the best things about hunting.
