Recreation

Land's End offers an exceptional blend of pasture, cropland, and CRP, creating outstanding wildlife habitat with a strong emphasis on upland birds. CRP acres provide prime nesting and winter cover, while pasture ground and natural draws deliver shelter, security, and protection from pressure and harsh weather. This diverse landscape creates ideal edge habitat, abundant insect life for chick survival, and reliable water sources, resulting in consistently strong pheasant hatches and outstanding hunting year after year. Strong farming practices maintained over decades have preserved and improved soil quality, reinforcing South Dakota's reputation as the Pheasant Capital of the World.

Beyond upland birds, the property supports excellent whitetail and mule deer genetics, aided by high-quality habitat and limited pressure.
