    Beware the Turkeys

    Turkeys & Eggheads Odd how an Egghead just cannot be convinced when state after state has had its quail and Phez population steadily diminish, All kinds of excuses they offer but practicality and direct evidence is not there bag. Those 60 birds we bagged SODak opener all came out of groves...

    Beware the Turkeys

    Turkeys imported by DNR/GFP If I was Commissioner I'd put a bounty on any Megachicken seen east of the Missouri. Why guys (who mostly can't move) want to dress up in a camo Burka and sit and sit, playing some sort of Harp and only allowed one, maybe two- beats the hell out of me unless you are...

    Beware the Turkeys

    Better enjoy the SoDak Hunting NOW boys, Our opener, was non-resort- 60 birds /20 hunters/2 hrs. Southern Iowa used to be loaded with birds (Quail too) but Turkeys moved in thanks to Iowa DNR.

    Did the Crazy Horse walk yesterday and

    Road Hunting

    SDak- Your gun needs not be cased just no chambered shell enroute. Interstate no Road hunting. Lot of locals get most of their birds road hunting. Do not stop & foolishly jump out shooting at first sight. Drive by. You are no different than a harmless tractor to the birds while still moving...

    Road hunting

    Whoa! You public land Dakota hunters ever heard of Road Hunting?? This 5 bird idea sure sounds good to me. Public land just gets better as Dec rolls along in big spacious Dakota. And evening Road hunting is better yet. Lot of places you can pick up your 5 birds in the last hr. I am a So Dakotan...

    Author of Dakota Pheasant and Iowa too!

    Hi Folks- My first time on the forum. Despite writing my book , Dakota Pheasant & Iowa too! ( have 8 others but this is the only pheasant book), I am no expert or a 'dead shot Charlie Know-it-all. I have missed my share of birds and still continue to do so. Missed a helluva easy shot in So Dak...
