Just spent 7 days in SD looking for sharptails and prairie chickens. Had a great time and some good dog work. It is a walking game, as we (2 of us) walked, as per the gps 3.29 miles for each bird killed for 26 birds, but still a fun hunt always. a limit of prairie chickens

Haven't had it in years but never spit any out. I am a sucker for happy endings and strapped cowboys.
