Bismarck Named One of the Top Locations for Pheasant Hunting in America

Interested in pheasant hunting? Look no further than your own backyard.

According to an article by Pheasants Forever, Bismarck is the number two spot to pheasant hunt in the country, only after Chamberlain, South Dakota. The list was compiled by using things such as area bird counts, annual harvest, acres of accessible public hunting land, local Pheasants Forever chapter activities, and available lodging.

Mott, ND also cracked the top 10, with the abundance of Private Land Open to Sportsmen (PLOTS) to make hunting on a budget a viable option.

Check out the rest of the top ten:

1. Chamberlain, SD
2. Bismarck, ND
3. McCook, NE
4. Oakley, KS
5. Lewistown, MT
6. Aberdeen, SD
