    Deer Season is Upon Us

    Shotgun slugs have multiple types. Some slugs are designed to be shot out of rifled barrels while other slugs can be shot out of a normal smooth bore barrel.

    Deer Season is Upon Us

    Goose ... the MT tactic is extremely common in ND and SD. I have actually seen pickups chase deer in SD. I have seen people in the back of pickups shoot at a coyote ... which I believe is legal ... in SD.

    Deer Season is Upon Us

    This topic has been discussed over and over and over. I have no issue going out midweek in traditional prairie pheasant areas. Deer gun hunters on the prairie are done (easily) and off stands before 9AM. Deer are largely nocturnal especially on the prairie. To be honest I have never...

    Gear Recommendations - Mid-December First Timer

    I wear a wind proof fleece vest in the winter. I also hate jackets and don’t even own one for upland hunting no matter how cold

    Gear Recommendations - Mid-December First Timer

    There has been great threads on winter excursions in the Dakotas. Search back… Prepare for 60F to -20F. -40F or lower with windchill. Respect that ground blizzards can form with minimal snow. Visibility near zero. Always keep the gas tank full and truck readied to spend a night. Top...

    NC Report 10/27-10/31

    Every state is different. MN and SD do allow party hunting ... never understood why with MN, but get SD with their big drives ... I suppose in MN party hunting started with deer and just rolled over to most other animals. ND on the other hand ... you must shoot your own upland birds. You...

    2024 Upland Season

    Was out for a 2-3 hour hunt this morning ... unfortunately (maybe) I was in the snow free zone and brought home one rooster. I was a nice chilly damp morning from 9 - noon.

    Here's a common report on any fakebook hunting page.

    Long ago I have simply learned to ignore the guys in our community that travel to SD and hunt the big-name lodges ... Same is all to true for whitetails and elk. So many of those big antlered bucks and bulls are killed in high fence operations I essentially have no care (or respect) to see...

    The guides often do not consider their clients as hunters ... many call them "sports" among other things. True that Gulf Coast to Canada.

    For the most part the average age of hunters is getting higher and recruitment (number of hunters replacing those quitting) is relatively poor. I would agree that the "average" hunter is more dedicated and probably much more specialized than say 20 - 30 years ago. Thus, in the hunter pool...

    Sand burrs and prickly pear cactus are common the further west you go in ND. Southwest being the most likely area where both occur.

    2024 Upland Season

    Crops are mostly offf south of 94. Even 35 north of the cities… corn is coming off. Usually going up deer opener I think … will be tough around there with all that corn still up. Problem with crop reports is relevance to your particular spots is somewhat poor

    License check. Is this legal?

    Iowa is somewhat known for random stops and even searches of vehicles … kind of what Iowa does.

    I find it interesting that pheasants in the Dakotas are more prone to be in the open vs. Minnesota. Maybe it is the Dakotas just have more gravel roads. Amazing how many paved county roads there are in Minnesota. Seems like in the Dakotas the birds also often fly from corn field to grass...
