The South Dakota Legislature imposed a mandatory $5.00 surcharge on most hunting licenses to provide funds for wildlife depredation programs and additional public hunting access. This $5.00 fee has been included with the above license fees. Youth licenses (12 through 18) are exempt from this surcharge. A shooting preserve license allows a person to hunt ONLY the birds listed on each preserve operators permit and hunt only on licensed private shooting preserves. The Nonresident shooting preserve licenses can be purchased from regular license agents statewide or via our GFP WEB page at www.sdgfp.info. Any shooting preserve operator who wishes to sell hunting licenses should contact GF&P Licensing in Pierre (605-773-3926) for further information.

A shooting preserve license allows a hunter to take ONLY those species listed on the operator's preserve permit. Birds must be released before hunting is started. The total harvest (including both released and wild birds) cannot exceed 100% of each species released. All bird species (both M & W) listed on an operators shooting preserve permit must have kill tags placed on the birds after harvest on the preserve, throughout the entire shooting preserve season.
