Overview
Works to maintain South Dakota's rich hunting heritage by providing public hunting access to privately owned lands that contain valuable wildlife habitat. Landowners open land to free public hunting (foot-traffic only) in exchange for a small payment and immunity from non-negligent liability. Landowners with land enrolled in permanent habitat conservation programs like CRP can receive an additional upfront bonus payment.
