Ides Guides
Ruffed Grouse Capital of the World!
Get ready to spend a day in the woods of the Ruffed Grouse Capital of the World with one of Ides Guides! Northern Wisconsin boasts the largest ruffed grouse population in the nation and Price County is located right in the center of Wisconsin’s northwoods with over 1.2 million acres of huntable land available!
Operating since 1977, Ides Guides is the oldest guide service in the area hunting exclusively for ruffed grouse and woodcock. All of our guides are experienced ruffed grouse and woodcock hunters who hunt with their own dogs. These “grouse dogs” are raised and trained to handle the nervous, unpredictable “winged dynamite” of these north woods.
You are also welcome to bring your own dogs.
