#6s work well all season long. Grouse molt in the summer, so they have no more feathers later in the season than they do at the start. If it looks like they have more it is only because the fluff then up more in cold weather to trap more air for insulation. As for size, a pound and a quarter is about average. Without a dog, one should stop and pause often as you walk thru the woods, as grouse will sit tight and let you walk by, but get nervous and flush when you stop. Just make sure you stop somewhere that will present you with a shot.
