I have heard that the eastern part of SD is experiencing a really bad droughtthat may greatly impact the amount of out-of-state pheasant hunters hunting this year.

Rammer and/or other SD residents,
do you know the severity of the drought out there???

I hunt near Wessington Springs.

Thanks,
MC2

I live about 50 miles south of wessington springs and its beenpretty dry here. There are certain areas that are really dry and some aren't bad. I've been seeing a decent amount of birds where i live but dont know what its like over there.

it's starting to green up. the pheasant population hasn't been hurt very much. it's going to be a great year again. live 30 miles west of aberdeen.

I spoke with my friends/ landowners in Wessington Springs last week and they informed me that they have received 7" of rain in the past 5 weeks.
LOTS OF BIRDS AS WELL !!!!

Thanks for all the information SD members.
