Did you guys see the massive buck in the Star Tribune Outdoors taken with a .410 slug on public ground. The guy had broke his collarbone and didn't think he could handle the kick from his 12 gauge so he took the .410 out and had this Monster run up to him.
Wirehairs, what a beast huh? Goes to show what a slug of any caliber can do!
Also, I'm coming out to Winner for the first week of December. How are things around there?
Bird numbers have been fantastic. They are flushing pretty wild now. The weather is starting to cool down now. We where over 80 degrees last weekend. Crops are out so birds don't have as many places to hide. Pretty good opportunities for birds still and hunting pressure has dropped way off. If you don't have a group big enough to have some blockers you better bring a full choke, the birds are wise and know why your there!
Oh yeah everybody knows the most famous cock cleaner in SD. By coming late season you should still be on a lot of birds, but you will get to hunt all day instead of a couple hours and have a limit.
