I' ve hunted in most of them places , but have to say there is no place like them BlackHills. Planning your trip is the first thing to do and set your mind on one place. Then gather as much info on the area as you can. Hunting the Hills is better in the 3rd week of April , as snow is likely and can turn the trip into a stand still. presure has not been to bad as I seen it, and came back with birds evry trip. The Custard area is a good start...BT
