We hunt SD every year. It's about a 9 hour drive to Redfield. The bird population is up this year over last year. We hunt opening weekend and pay a farmer to hunt his land. However, we try to go back a second time and always hunt public and knock on some doors. We shoot lots of birds on public it just takes longer. We do road hunt which helps and is legal in SD. We gave up hunting in KS on a regular basis about 5 years ago. I hunted 6 days last year near hays and shot about 4 birds total. I have a young shorthair and had to get her in the field or I would have skipped KS all together. I do agree hunting pivots in western KS may be the way to go. Those are hard to hunt though. To many escape routes.
