Pheasant Hunting - Highmore, South Dakota

Daybreak Ranch is not a pheasant hunting preserve, this is the real deal. You will shoot wild roosters as well as sharptail grouse and prairie chicken as bonus birds during the wild bird season. No released birds here! One of many attractions of pheasant hunting at Daybreak Ranch is the ability for you to build your own hunting party consisting of family, friends or hunting buddies. We do not mix groups of hunters unless requested, providing you a more enjoyable hunting experience. In fact, with 8,000 private acres available to hunt, it is unusual to see another hunter on the ranch while you are in the field hunting.

Josh & Jerrid– the brothers, and Cole– their cousin, grew up in Gettysburg, South Dakota, where they developed a passion for the outdoors, especially pheasant hunting. Currently, Josh lives in Wyoming, while Cole and Jerrid still live in the area. Cole and Bear are the two prominent faces of the business as the leading guide and bird dog, while Jerrid and Josh work behind the scenes to make sure their business continues to provide great hunting experiences. The farm is located in the northwest corner of Hyde County, South Dakota, approximately 15 miles southeast of Gettysburg. We offer world-class hunting experiences at affordable prices. In addition, our food plots and tree lines house a large population of wild, fun-to-hunt birds that will leave every hunter with lifelong memories.

The Grand Lodge is operated by hunters for hunters. So the vast knowledge and good old fashioned hard work of our Lodge owners, guides and their dogs in reading the terrain and the ever changing weather in South Dakota will guarantee some very impressive pheasant hunting while hearing “rooster” all day… everyday.
