[QUOTE="Rowdie, post: 383728, member: 272"] It's weird how everyone's hunting styles change throughout the years. As a kid in JH and HS it was almost all upland. Back then, in SD East River, you could only get a deer tag every 3 years. The SD east river season was only open 2 weekends and the week in the middle. What a cluster F. Then after getting out of HS is was goose and deer. I really didn't hunt for 2 years right out of HS so when I started up again, we started hunting the Rez and with the long seasons, we'd just go for everything. We'd jump stock dams for ducks and grouse hunt while out antelope hunting. We'd shoot turkey and pheasants while deer hunting, but the main focus was always on the big game. When the geese started coming through we wasted a lot of hours scouting and setting up for them. And of course we'd shoot pheasants and grouse too. Then in the late 90's I got a dog. So I started shooting a lot of birds again. I'd still deer hunt but not as much from year to year. And now I haven't shot a deer for a few years. I may shoot one this year though. [/QUOTE]
