The Golden Triangle is a renowned region in south-central South Dakota, defined by the towns of Gregory, Winner, and Chamberlain, which mark its three points. Widely recognized as the premier pheasant hunting area in a state already known for its exceptional upland game, the Golden Triangle consistently reports the highest concentrations of wild pheasants in South Dakota. Its landscape—an ideal blend of grain fields, native grasslands, and shelterbelts across both public and private lands—provides prime habitat for pheasants to nest, feed, and thrive. This rich environment, combined with the area's hunting legacy, attracts thousands of hunters annually from across the country and around the world.
