HSO Deer Photo's


Recommended Posts

Yup! The Dakotas have opportunities for early season muzzle-loader hunts.

North Dakota does not have an early muzzleloader season. In fact, ND doesn't have a muzzleloader season for non-residents.

South Dakota I don't think has a muzzleloader season until December, and I think its residents only for antlered deer.

So, if it was a dakota deer, all I can think of is Indian Reservation or High Fence?

The SD Season dates are listed under Hunting / Big Game/ (Link at the bottom) "Application forms, Season Dates and Deadlines are available here". This will list out the big game information and dates. Its a new site and I am just getting familiar with it as well. But there doesn't appear to be a season open now except youth, unless a reservation has one.

Sorry guys, I haven’t logged in for awhile... The buck was taken on a res, and as I stated earlier; both states have opportunities for early season hunts... I don’t know anything about high-fence hunts; personally I wouldn’t find those very appealing.

This particular hunt I have been doing for several years now. It’s not for the indolent hunter that’s for sure; we put on between 10 and 15-miles per day, walking the creek bottoms and ravines chasing deer around. It’s truly a blast, but by no means is it an easy hunt!

How do you get in on hunts on reservations? Are they like special draws or something

Usually, with reservation hunts you just have to go with an outfitter and/or be willing to pay the price of the tags if they allow non-band members to hunt.

I'd be interested to know what reservation Johnny B hunted on and what the arrangements were for the hunt. There are certainly some nice parts of the dakota's (hunting wise) that are reservation land.

The story that I got with the monster muley was that it was arrowed in Canada. No location details beyond that. Long story short, it was in the same flax field five consecutive days with a reasonably easy stalk performed 3 times. First two stalks ended with buck standing up and walking straight away.

Gross non typical score - 259 1/8

Gross typical frame - 211 7/8

Net typical frame - 207

Total net non typical - 254 4/8

Here are a couple more pics. The story and pics I recvd are too long to paste everything into this post.
