This is completely accurate as far as what I saw. Some places we saw very few birds. Others we saw several hundred per day. Most were on private land we had no access to....but they’re there. We...

Good read.....good pictures....thanks for sharing
Good Luck! Hope its a great trip. We are still a couple weeks from heading out
[QUOTE=A5 Sweet 16;253059]Mike, you have to be able to see the bird, unless it's a dead overhead, oncoming shot. My guess is that when your brain thinks the tip of your barrel is low, what's really...
I don't consider myself a particularly good shot. I'm kinda streaky. I'll miss several and then get hot and connect several times in a row. What I think causes me to miss is either not mounting...
you described our group...if we make our shots, those of us who are serious and have dogs get the opportunity to limit every day on public land.
Love it! Good luck to you as well!
How's it looking in your area so far? I hunted Kansas for the first time in January. I was pleasantly surprised. Felt some of the areas I hunted were as good as...
I meant the dog should have obedience down before it goes out there. Handling as in doing what it's told: Sit, come, stay, heel etc....that's what I meant by "if the dog handles..." I didn't have to...
I think Y'all are over reacting.
GaryM, If you're worried about what everyone is telling you about the first time with the new dog? Take your dog to a preserve and turn it loose and shoot a few...
So, just to confirm because it's been confusing to follow....Nothing changed and you can still hunt land if it's not posted?
Thanks Jackrabbit....planning on making a trip out this summer to scout and maybe look into it a little further
Can anybody tell me where i can find listings of landowners that allow hunting for a trespass fee such as $100 per gun? I'm looking to maybe have a day or two next season that I can get on some...
To me this is fairly simple....if that guys dog is birdie or on point and he gets a nice close flush right in front of him? i'll let him shoot first. I may not shoot at all. But if that bird jumps up...
I've been out there the last 2 years. I've done well on one trip and not so well on one trip. There's a LOT to learn. I can tell you that both years I tried to shortcut and hunt closer to the town I...
I'm shocked as well that people travel there to hunt caged birds? Every state has 20+ operations that you can hunt fat, slow, easy to shoot caged birds.....I will NEVER drive 12 hours to hunt caged...
Nice tribute. I dread that day with my girl.
Congrats! I've been twice and the number of birds I saw was comparable to anywhere I've ever been including SD
I've been drawn twice in 30 years. It sucks. Awesome hunts. I would love to see us get some more ground in crp but the farmers up in NW part of the state are tilling all the way to the road.
Might be a dumb question, but I've got to ask....
Here in Indiana, farmers rotate crops from corn to soybeans nearly every year. Do the farmers in South Dakota do that? Reason I'm asking is...
That's my deal...I'm sure I could get permission, but I only have a few days to hunt. I can't burn them up knocking on doors trying to figure out which guy owns that piece down at the corner. Thought...
Just got back from SD. First time there. Hunted within a couple hours of Sioux Falls. Didn't kill very many because those were the wildest flushing birds I've ever seen...but we saw birds. If this is...
I appreciate all of the advice. I read where one guy said " Finding the birds and figuring a new place on your own is part of the fun."
I agree. I'm excited to get out there and wear out some...
Well, I'm heading out for a couple days this weekend. Was supposed to go to Iowa, but with this weekend being their shotgun opener and the area we were going to being a couple hours from SD...We are...
Because when I pick up the "Atlas" and drive 800 miles I'd like to be able to hunt what the State "Advertised" as huntable land. If they had a drought in southern Nebraska (I've not heard that area...
Thanks Dakotazeb!
