Hunting in South Dakota:

South Dakota is renowned world-wide for its pheasant hunting, and rightfully so.  Did you know that only three times in the past 20 years has the annual pheasant harvest been under 1 million roosters, and those "down" years had well over 900,000 harvested birds.

Pheasants are just part of the hunting package you can enjoy.  We offer a variety of game animals in a variety of settings: forests, river bottom, grasslands, mountains, and the vast Missouri River reservoir system.
