The Story

Go hunting in Wisconsin with Orvis-endorsed wingshooting guide Mark Nissen of Classic Bird Hunts. Catering to the foot hunter in pursuit of all wild game birds over classic pointing dogs, we have been in the guiding business for over 40 years. Hunt behind our world-class Brittanies or bring your own dogs. We have a guide for you, whether you choose ruffed grouse in the forests of Wisconsin or three species of quail in Arizona. Let Classic Bird Hunts provide wingshooting thrills—a brace of September Wisconsin woodcock followed by a covey of Arizona Mearns quail in January. These hunts are not for the faint of heart, as you will be walking miles in a day's hunt. However, heart-stopping memories will be your reward. If you are looking for traditional style foot hunts over savvy pointing dogs, Classic Bird Hunts is the outfitter for you. Upland hunting and bird dogs are our passion and our life and we enjoy nothing more than sharing the tradition with you.

In Northwest Wisconsin, you will be hunting relatively flat terrain mostly on trails through thickly-forested cover. Birds moved will be directly proportional to miles walked. These birds don't come easy. They will challenge your skill and stamina, making a bird in the bag ever so sweet. They don't call ruffed grouse "King of the Gamebirds" for no reason!

Orvis is pleased to offer our travel customers access to two valuable services: Global Rescue travel membership and IMG Signature Travel Insurance℠.
