Looks as if our South Dakota Merriam hunt is on for the 7th-11th of May. We'll be hunting the Pine Ridge Reservation of the Oglala Sioux Indians. With our trip to Kansas last spring for our Rio, we're hoping to finish our Grand Slams in some rough but beautiful country, if the birds cooperate. Anybody been to the Badlands and what should we expect from Merriams? The dates will be the last few days of their season.
