Northwoods Bird Dogs and Bowen Lodge collaborate to provide the ultimate experience in guided ruffed grouse and woodcock hunts. The combination of Jerry Kolter’s finely trained grouse dogs and his hunting prowess along with the world-class hospitality of Bowen Lodge is unrivaled.

Bowen Lodge is situated in northern Minnesota on Lake Winnibigoshish at the edge of the Chippewa National Forest. This location provides some of the nation’s finest grouse and woodcock covers. Bill and Gail Heig, owners of Bowen Lodge, have provided guided hunts for more than 25 years. Sportsmen and women gather each autumn to participate in a fantastic package of days spent hunting in the grouse woods and evenings in the warm ambience of Bowen Lodge. It’s an experience not soon forgotten.

“Ruffed grouse and woodcock hunting, bird dogs, fine shot guns, great food, and great friendships. These words pretty well sum up the month of October at Bowen Lodge.”
~ Bill Heig
