South Dakota Pronghorn
« on: August 23, 2022, 12:11:50 PM »
Surprise, I drew antelope in South Dakota this year, I threw in for unit 27a with 3 points, on average it has taken 6-8 points to draw. Anybody ever hunted that area? I figure there is plenty of walk-in hunting and National grassland to hunt so I don’t need a spot, just wondering if I should take the first 70” buck I see or try to hold out for a good one?

South Dakota bound tonight. My son has a football game and then we are heading out about 6:30. Hopefully be in the unit about 6:30-7 AM and start hunting. I’ll keep this thread updated

Nothing wrong with a 70 inch pronghorn 👍
