The pheasant hunting season in South Dakota starts Oct 18, 2008 and last until Jam 4, 2009. Pheasant hunting is also expected to be much better this year than it was last year and last year was a great year for hunters. There are a ton of pheasants in Eastern South Dakota and plenty of lodges for those interested in hunting. There’s also a ton of public land available for all you pheasant hunters.

Last but not leas is duck hunting in SD. The start and end dates for Eastern South Dakota duck hunting are the same as the goose hunting dates. There are already plenty of ducks and waterfolw around the Eastern part of the state and the people in the hunting forums expect this year to be as good or better than last year for duck hunting.

Enjoy your hunting trip and hopefully you get limits of every kind of waterfowl that you hunt. It’s fairly easy to get the 20 goose limit of snows and blues every day and that should give you enough so you can have goose a few times per month, all year long. Enjoy.
