Great hunt! Happy for You and your crew. Brought back memories of my only prairie chicken hunt maybe 25 years ago. We hunted with Bob Tinker out of Pierre and chased them with dogs on horseback.

Big fun and we were on target all 3 days. The 3rd day we hunted the ranch where much of the film Dances with wolves was made. I almost had a 3 day 9 bird limit but doubled on a covey for my last 2 birds and the second was a sharpie. Great memory! Hunting with the Tatanka! You live in a very special area.

Glad it all went your way.

I found some pictures (pre-digital) so these are pics of those pics.

The gun was a 20 bore single trigger Zoli with 28" tubes if I remember correctly.
Stolen from me soon after. ��

Hey Mark!
I did not have your success when I hunted with Tinker. Good for you, cool hunt. The gentleman who helped in our hunt scouts with binocs to know which land the chickens are using. This helps locate those coveys without wandering around for just any grouse. I have hunted this area previously and it was just what you run into and meant many sharpies.

I just want to say I did not shoot any sharpies on this hunt…..one person in our party shot both on the 2 day hunt…..just sayin’ without sayin’ who!
