    Good Weekend in SD

    after looking images of both on the google machine, the ones we ran into looked more like the Burdock than a cocklebur. much bigger than a cocklebur. about the same size as a sweet gum ball, and had much more "cling" to it as far as the dog's coat and our flannel shirts and denim trousers...

    Good Weekend in SD

    tell me about those googles. the last day of our recent hunt, my lab looked like her eyes had been scratched out by limbs and some kind of hellacious sticker-balls after she went through in a thick shelter belt. she came out with bright red blood completetly around both eyes, and her coat was...

    what bird looks like a flying bowling pin?

    very similar shape, but i didnt notice any colored markings on the face, since they flew by in a flash. it was about 8-10 birds together. they were about the size of a small hen pheasant.

    Private land?

    I expect on-site lodging on or very near private hunting grounds during early-to-mid-season fetches a premium over an AirBnB or motel/hotel in a nearby town. a couple years ago, I stayed at a "package deal" commercial outfitter in KS who provided 2-night stay, 2-day hunt for $500 a day that...

    while on our recent pheasant hunt in SD doing some late evening scouting in unfamiliar territory near chamberlain, we got buzzed by a group of birds out of a that flushed out of a grass field near the gravel road we were driving. when they were briefly flying beside the truck, they all had...

    Dog Starting Heat Cycle - Bring for SD Opener ?

    if you were going to be by yourself or with other females, i'd say go for it. with other neutered males along, it could make for a uncomfortable and chaotic experience in the field, and where ever y'all are staying it the evening. I took mine who came into her first heat cycle the weekend...

    "Thank you" for access to land?

    The last two times I've been on short-notice, late seasons hunt the last weekend of January on private land, my group gave the host several bottles of bourbon that semed to be hard to get in SE SD. This was in additon to the $ we paid to stay at his farmhouse and hunt his place. Both times...

    Garmin Alpha 300 Lanyard

    I don’t have the GA300. However, I notice that it comes with a lanyard similar to what my sport dog came with . I upgraded to a heavy hauler lanyard just this week that has a clip for my transmitter and my whistle. If the clip won’t fit in the recess for the GA300, you may be able to put a...

    Passing through SD…Pheasants Galore

    I’m not whining about the miles or hours. I enjoy the road trip and the windshield time I get with my buddies. The destination is great, but the adventure just wouldn’t be the same without the journey!

    Hot Beef Commercial

    Any of y’all familiar with “hot beef commercial”? I read an article a while back about it being a staple along the I90 corridor between MN and Rapid City. I don’t recall seeing it on any menus in the places I’ve stopped to eat, and not exactly sure where to find it, But I’d like to give it a...
