As long as I can remember South Dakota's pheasant hunting season has opened on the third Saturday in October. In later years its purity has been corrupted by an earlier youth hunt and a public lands hunt. For many years opening day was shared with others. The last few years it has been a solo event.
With today's 80+ degree temperature riding a tractor was agreeable. The abundant rainfall this year produced chest high big bluestem grass thick as hair on a dog's back. Surprising as it may seem I'm not as vigorous as once. Using a tractor I drove some walking paths through the grass to accommodate my hunting. It didn't disturb much habitat cover, just offers a footpath for a lazy hunter.
