Member of PF, DU, and NWTF. These are all really good organizations, and all have a focus on keeping these amazing opportunities available; not only for us, but for the future - through their youth programs. IMHO, we are in a better place today with all their efforts, regarding CRP enrollments...

Agree with WB. Very nice of you to put this together GH! Your video belongs on the SDFG website

Beautiful! Congrats on completing such a ambitious & difficult project! Time to enjoy it & show it off🍻

Enjoyed your video DD. The sound of a flock of teal buzzing the blind is amazing. Some claim they are the best eating duck, and I won’t argue. A few years ago in Alberta we were set up to pass shoot teal, had to be close to 800-1000 pass thru a flooded creek bottom. A wing shooters dream, and we...

I started out with pick ups and no topper. That was a long time ago - of course it was a money issue, but somehow always had money for fun at the bar🤪 somewhere in my early 30’s went with the cheapest aluminum topper I could find - and have had a topper ever since - plus - aluminum toppers are...

Gorgeous! Nice to see all that effort coming together for you. Really looking forward to seeing it complete - RU doing a buttplate or pad? A Pachmayr lightweight F250 brown pad might match up nicely. Congrats on your accomplishment!!

A week in December & preferably M-F If you have the flexibility to leave on a moments notice, watch the weather - if the forecast is calling for snow (not a foot or a blizzard) time your travel to arrive before the snow begins -even if that means starting on Saturday There is nothing better to...

Great point BB Always identifying good loafing areas on the morning scout runs - especially when it’s warm and the birds are not apt to return to cattails after their morning feed

Data always preferred to hype A5! Interesting observation..................liking the glass half full approach! There is no doubt that SD still offers some fine pheasant hunting, for those willing to do pre trip planning, scouting, and ground pounding (was a Huron Pheasant festival team called...

I've had great luck using the Outdoor Connection Talon Sling with quick detach swivels. Used for waterfowl and turkey hunting, have yet to wear one out. The swivel connection is important. I've had the threaded style, had them come loose, ultimately having the gun drop to the ground - dangerous...

Great point about getting your dog “action” Since we go multiple times each year, the first trip helps narrow the spots to hunt for subsequent trips - our dogs play a huge role in sorting that out - & our pup will be a year old/first hunt - can’t wait - for us, dogs make the hunting experience...

The past 6-8 years - a “guarded” yes. We primarily hunt public. SD pheasant hunting has seen a big decline in CRP ground, resulting in a huge reduction in pheasants, etc. We look for “pockets” of birds, compared to birds about everywhere back in the late nineties thru 2012 or so. So much has...

Great work! Thanks for sharing & keep the pics coming Is there cast on the stock, or just the angle of the last pic?

Looks great FCSpringer! Shotgunworld is a great source to locate resources like checkering, etc. The Gunsmithing thread is very informative. Curious to know what oil finish you plan to use I’ve recently used Timberluxe (my recently refinished SKB 1900 is shown on their Facebook page), Tru Oil...

Congrats on your good fortune DZeb! Good things happen to good people

🤣 I take enough tumbles in the fall to cover the year! Wife gets great pleasure watching

always counted on racquetball to help stay in shape for hunting...........that's out with torn labrum and bicep tendon, so R shoulder surgery next week. Baseball, softball, racquetball finally took its toll.............agree remy3424, landscaping and yardwork not my favorites, but appreciate the...

Congrats on your success gimruis! Around here the toms are really henned up. The weather sure has been lousy! Been caught in a few of those downpours myself🤣🤣

Fantastic! Very special & lifetime memory. Congrats to both of you!!
