    Snow goose season in South Dakota??

    I hunt elk in Montana, and have never done a goose or duck hunt. Was wondering when snow goose season was in S.D. so I could maybe catch it on the way home. Any recommendations for an outfitter? Never done it before. Do you have to use nontoxic shot? What's the daily limit? Are they good to eat?

    Bought these this past Spring through Schnees, and hadnt had a chance to use them extensively until elk & mule deer hunting in Montana. Very pleased with my choice. The head rest really helps to steady them and the 12 power is not overwhelming but for seeing antlers 3-350 yards away, very...
