Black hills

[cking13]

Did anyone hit the black hills this year? Thinking of making a return trip next year and was wondering if you saw lots of Jakes/birds this season?

Winter was tough and early spring tougher in my opinion. I saw a good number of jakes but nothing more than usual. Number of birds that I saw was blow average but it was hard with the weather/snow keeping them pushed down lower. I don't think hunters that big of impact on them as the weather kept most people out of the hills. I haven't seen very many chicks and that concerns me more.

The later the better it seems to have been. Weather was pretty tough this year.

Numbers are down... deep snow and cold and a wet spring hampered the hatch.

Didnt see many birds deer hunting this fall either very disappointing, have had so much fun out there [that spring hunt really helps moral].
