Thanks Tigger. I was not trying to BS anyone. I do however realalize that where I hunt is a vastly different world than most people hunt in. That area is deep and rough river Breaks from the Wyoming border to the Missouri river in the center of the state. These breake are very deep and overgrown with Cedar trees that you can' t even walk through. Surronding these breaks which are full to the hilt with Mule deer are countles thousands of acres of fertile farm ground. Those deer are grain and alfalfa fed up tp thier ears. When they come out of those breaks it is onto open fields where you can see for miles. You can set on a ridge with binos and count deer until you can see nothing in your mind except deer. I am sure that the Mule deer in western SD out number the people 10 to 1. Most people live near a city that has two or three times the population of SD. Many places in SD you can drive 75 miles and never see another car or house or anything else except deer and antelope. I am talking about the north west 1/4th of the state where there might be 2000 people. Several mild winters have helped the deer population explode. The central part of the state is even more overrun with deer but they are whitetails in that area. I Have hunted woods areas in Canada and the Black Hills but the praire deer hunting is a whole different world. Most of my hunting is just setting along those fields in the morning and evening and ambush the deer as they come out. Its a fun way to hunt and you will watch deer until you are sick of it. Its just a different way to hunt. And yes its awful easy unless you want to walk those breaks all day trying to spook some out of the tangles of Cedar trees.
