It would seem the winter has me pondering hunting trips for this year. I always wanted to hunt prairie chickens since I have never seen one and made the trip to South Dakota the middle of the opening weekend. It was a fun trip to see new country and roam around vast expanses while seeing my first prairie chickens ever. I shot a limit all three days I was there and had a blast. My question to anyone who hunts them a lot is are they able to be hunted in a grassland type setting in November or later with good conditions. I realize weather is everything then I am only wondering if I took my dog out to the national grasslands for example could I still flush a close bird or two or am I dreaming as they are all grouped up. I am pretty sure I know what most will say and yes I am planning on going then depending on snow of course. Just curious as to what cover to look towards or if I should try to find a place to pass shoot them. I hope everyone is wintering well and thanks for any replies.
