Pheasants abound in North Dakota
Pheasant hunting experience in North Dakota: Legendary
Three shells and a half dozen targets. Go ahead, take your pick. That's pheasant hunting in North Dakota.
Flashes of bright red against a sea of brown vegetation or the bright white of fresh fallen snow, the cackle and beating of wings are often the first signs you have come upon a rooster. Your first reaction is to draw a bead when suddenly your dog or hunting buddy flushes a whole flock of birds. Remember, you have three shots. If you strike out, don't worry, you'll get more chances. If you limit out, there's always tomorrow. Pheasant season just got longer in North Dakota as the state added a week to the opener.
Hunting season ends in January 2024
