South Dakota

Just curious if anyone else hunts up in SD. We go up almost every year for a doe hunt. We hunt the national grasslands and do pretty well. Always have a great time and have met some interesting people. Tons of walking but well worth it.

I've been hunting Fall River county for the last 9 years. Got some nice Bucks there and one Monster my boy shot in 2009. Lots of turkey, and the Elk numbers are growing each year. Mostly Whitetail,but some great mulies there too. The goats seemed to decline the last few years though. SD seem to be changing the quota for that area,so not worth going for just one deer. Lots of fun and some great people.

I hunted Butte and Harding county as a kid. We did pretty good prior to the winter of 85. I the last 4-5 years I have hunted fall river county. Killed a nice buck 2 yrs ago. Have sure noticed an increase in hunters on public. I will hunt Wyoming again this year.
