What an amazing experience. Ckyler Floyd and his family know how to make you feel at home. Ckyler's knowledge and management of his family land really makes for an outstanding experience in the field. He works hard with his two dogs Ellie and Ted to make sure you are getting the best chance to get on birds at every oppertunity. You will see birds. The lodge is very well thought out and very comfortable. And lets not forget to mention the food: prime rib, ribeyes, lasagna, pork chops, chicken noodle soup, burgers, biscuits and sausage gravy, breakfast pizza and the desserts!!! Everything about this place is top notch and I'm already looking forward to our next trip.”
Dueling Dakota Outfitters
A family made business in the heart of Pheasant Country
Experience the best pheasant hunting in the Dakotas.
Our family owned ranch extends from the Northwest of South Dakota into the Southwest of North Dakota meaning our hunters can reach their limits in both states, letting you take home more birds!
We offer over 15,000 acres of CRP(Conservation Reserve Program), farmland, grasslands, and wetlands, as well as 1,500 acres of preserve hunting. It is the best of both worlds here at Dueling Dakotas. Our South Dakota location is surrounded by rolling hills and plenty of grasslands. As for our North Dakota location, it is conveniently located across from the beautiful Haley Dam Reservoir and is surrounded by farmland, CRP, and not to mention, thousands of wild pheasants, partridge, and grouse.
All our pheasant hunts are guided by professional guides. Our guides know the lay of the land and know the birds that occupy it. Our guides will ensure you get the most out of your hunt and provide transportation and professional hunting dogs.

Dr. Doug Waite, Captain, Chaplain Corps, USN, RetiredWhat is not to like about Dueling Dakota Outfitters? Beautiful scenery and sunsets, amazing meals and chefs, open bar stocked with your favorites, a great guide, terrific dogs, lots of birds, comfortable lodging, transportation, two states and two daily limits, nice people, reasonable pricing, they have it all. I have been coming here for three years with my friends, relatives and dog. They are the best. I plan to keep coming.”
