Hey everyone,
My buddy and I both drew ST1 tags for South Dakota. Looking at the application form it looks like, if I am understanding it correctly, we will be able to hunt majority of SD. My goal is to get on some muleys while my buddy simply wants to get either a whitetail or muley; with that being said I would not pass up a good whitetail. We are planning on going out October 1-9 and am wondering if anyone would have any insights into general areas that will allow us to get onto deer. I have been primarily looking at the far western part of the state near WY and Neb. I am more than willing to put in the work hiking - this has been a common theme I have seen when folks talk about finding deer in SD. Are there any other tips or tactics that folks would be willing to share? Again, not looking for specific locations per say but general areas such as units, terrain to look at via web, etc. Also, for those of you who are familiar with SD and archery, what is the pressure generally like during October and how do you set up for camp?
Looking forward to any feedback and insights.
