    South Dakota Trespass Fee Connections?

    Call Kooch in Winner…he will get you set up with some land to hunt on.

    My point is that it is unlikely that you are going to be able to find 3 other partners that have a common goal and then are going to work equally towards that common goal. Kinda like CarTom described.. that’s exactly my point. I didn’t really follow your younger less experienced pilot story...

    I agree that the concept is the same…if hunting pen raised birds. I’ve been paying a trespass fee to hunt in South Dakota every year since about 1995. It’s not very difficult to tell if the birds are pen raised and on the farm I just got back from the birds are 100% wild…which is a farm I’ve...

    We are talking about 2 different things. Hunting pen raised birds on a preserve is one thing…paying a farmer a trespass fee to hunt in their land is another.

    I see you are singing a different tune….”maybe not hunting wild birds” is different from “if you are going to pay to play, not much sense in driving to South Dakota as most states have private game farms.”

    Well…something ain’t right if you counted 6 birds on the tailgate in the picture I posted.. I also said “we got our last 2 of 18”…see if you can do the math to figure out how many guys it would take for 18 birds to be a limit. I’m not really sure what your point is, but you incorrectly implied...

    No I’ve never wondered why I see more roosters than hens….because I’m not seeing more roosters than hens. But I am wondering why you keep making so many incorrect assumptions? I agree, about going to a hunt club for easy guaranteed birds…but we aren’t hunting easy guaranteed birds. We limited...

    No holes through the noses of these birds. My young dog is having a blast…and the farmer has a few hundred in his pocket….what was it again that’s so bad about paying a trespass fee???

    How do you figure? What is bad about putting some money in a farmers pockets….while getting to hunt some of the best land on the face of the earth? That sounds like a win/win to me.

    Pay to Play rates in SD

    Speaking of pay to play rates…I’m currently en route to South Dakota to hunt a farm about an hour south of Miller. I hunted the farm from about 2000-2015 until the farmer decided he was no longer going to have hunters. As a trespass fee and to be able to hunt this farm again…two guys in our...

    It’s pretty easy to tell if the bird is wild or not. When I last hunted the Winner area in 2019 just about all of the birds that we shoot were pen raised birds. We hunted different farms and paid $175 per gun/day. We asked one of the farmers about him releasing birds and he said he released a...

    Can pheasants see blaze orange?

    So late in the pheasant hunting season last year, I was in Kooch's shop in Winner talking about how we were having a tough time ambushing the wise old late season birds, when another guy in the shop heard us talking and told us the problem was our blaze orange hats. The guy seemed pretty...
