Our company was established in 1986 and operates in 1 territory.
We are not a game farm. In addition to our own land, we reserve hunting rights on over 7,000 acres, increasing our total hunting area to nearly 10,000 acres of farm and ranch land in central South Dakota. We dedicate our entire farming operation to pheasant habitat and food plots to ensure you have the hunt of a lifetime. Wild pheasant hunting is a way of life on the Authier Ranch.
About this hunt
We own or lease nearly 10,000 acres of mostly contiguous acreage, centered on Medicine Creek. Our farm/ranch is bounded by grassy uplands to the north and south, so given our substantial acreage and this positioning of the land, we are set up ideally for hatching, rearing, feeding and sheltering unusual pheasant populations.
We have multiple lodges at our operations center, which is in the middle of our acreage. All hunters are lodged and fed on site. We offer half day hunts, all day hunts or multiple day hunts, and we provide guides and dogs. We have a trap shooting facility and sport shop on site. We clean and package your birds.
We can also provide grouse hunting, as well as goose hunting and prairie dog hunting within an hour’s drive.
