Ill second that, good food, company and hunting , and great house.

Very nice accomadations

Stayed there last year.

I may be interested in this, for this fall. I assume that the some/alot(?) of the pheasant grounds within that 40mi radius are open to the public?

Yes there are lots of public lands. Walk-In Areas (WIA), Waterfowl Production Areas (WPA), Game Production Areas, State Land, Bureau of Reclamation & Section Lines. I look for places with cover next to crops. A good system that produces lots of birds for me.
South Dakota has a book of maps which is free each year showing all of the public hunting grounds. WIA, WPA and GPA land all have signs on each corner.

Thank you for the info.

Is non toxic shot required for any of the public lands?

Yes, Waterfowl and Game production areas. WIA's are not.

I'm hopeful. I have heard and seen more birds this year than the last 6 years that I have lived in Minnesota combined.

We now have l litters of cute Siberian Husky Puppies. If any one is interested plz contact

Six to seven months away yet but am already looking forward to pheasant hunting again.

I have not only seen the occasional rooster, but yesterday I saw a hen with chicks! It's a virtual population explosion in east-central Iowa.

Weather and reports have been favorable for the birds. Looking forward to getting out with my dogs.

May contact you. Will be making our trip to eastern Montana for deer in late October. Just got a GSP last year and am taking him to Montana. Might make a nice trip extension to stop for 2 or 3 days in SD.

I have some dates available.

Take your dog pheasant hunting....he'll love you for the good times you have together!

Numbers are supposed to be up in Nebraska as well. Might be a good year for pheasant hunting.
