6 Great Reasons to Hunt Pheasants in South Dakota in 2006

Brown County, South Dakota continues as one of the best wild bird pheasant hunting counties in all of the United States. Over the past four years Brown County has produced some of the most fantastic hunting for hundreds of hunters.

In 2005, Brown County had an estimated wild bird harvest of over 200 roosters per square mile. It was ranked as one of the top counties in all of South Dakota as report by South Dakota Game and Fish. The hunting in 2006 is projected to be equally as good, if not better than 2005.

For non – resident hunters who would like to experience a true wild bird hunt in Brown County, I would like to recommend Maple River Pheasant Hunts (MRPH) as an excellent outfit to book your hunt. In fact here are six good reasons why you will want to hunt with Maple River Pheasant Hunts.

  1. We have hundreds of wild pheasants. Our bird count will provide every hunter with many opportunities to shoot a limit. These birds will also provide an exciting challenge to even the most seasoned hunter.
  2. Our acres of hunting land offers a wide variety of hunting habitat; CRP, food plots, cat tails, tree lines, water holes, etc. This variety of habitat allows us to meet the needs and variety of hunting desired by our hunting guests. We can change up our style of hunting to suit each individual group of hunters and offer everyone a quality hunt.
  3. Maple River Pheasant Hunts is designed to meet the needs of each individual group. Most often we only take one group at a time. If we happen to have two groups overlapping, we usually keep each group separated and only combine the groups if it is acceptable to both groups and is beneficial to all to have a larger party to hunt a specific piece of ground.
  4. We offer all groups either a fully guided or a semi guided hunt. This way we make sure that each group stays “in the birds”. We want every hunter to have a truly great hunt and we work to make that happen each and every day in the field.
  5. We have Brittany’s (pointing dogs) available for every day of hunting. Groups can hunt with our dogs, their own dogs or a combination of both. We just know that good dog work and a lot of dog power will produce the opportunities for all of us to get our limit.
  6. Maple River Pheasant Hunts stresses safety in the field. We require each hunter to wear a blaze hat and vest as well as protective eyewear (sunglasses and prescription glasses are acceptable). We cover basic safety rules with each group before we get into the fields. Every hunter is expected to abide by our safety expectations. A safe hunt is a great hunt!
