I was told that my Non-Resident outfitter sponsored tag includes pheasants. We are taking our shotguns along to hunt grouse and pheasants. I also got a pronghorn license.

The biggest concern I have after talking with many references is that I will not know when to shoot. I have practiced a broken string right off my PSE Scorpion and am ready to go. I worry that I want to have a nice long hunt but if a good 150+ rack buck comes along on day 1 I will be more concerned about prolonging the hunt rather than bagging a real trophy. I understand that we are hunting along the Missouri Breaks and the Yellowstone. The references all told me stories of many many good bucks and every day the sighting of a real booner.

You can see my dilemma.

I will follow next week with a trip report.
