The Golden Triangle

A Storied Landscape.

The south-central South Dakota hunting Golden Triangle is commonly described as the area between Winner, Gregory, and Chamberlain. Here, productive farm ground, expansive prairie and grass cover, and a long sporting tradition converge to create a habitat heavily associated with strong pheasant hunting. While the untamed nature of the land means we offer no guarantees or exact bird counts, the history of this region speaks for itself.
