The majority of archery antelope hunting is done using blinds over waterholes. The blinds are set up in the preseason so the antelope are used to them by the time season rolls around. Another tactic we use will be spot and stalk behind decoys. South Dakota’s archery antelope hunting season traditionally starts the third Saturday of August and goes to the end of September and then opens up again the last half of October.
Hunt Schedule: arrive to camp on Thursdays around 12 noon. Hunt Thursday afternoon, all day Friday, Saturday, Sunday and Monday, return home Tuesday morning.
Hunting Blinds: Blinds vary depending on the situation from pop-ups to to permanent sleeper cabs and hard-sided Maverick Blinds.
Treestands: Ladder stands, wearing safety harnesses required.
