Professional Guiding in South Dakota
Cain Creek Outfitters grew out of Langbehn Land & Cattleāa working farm and Angus cattle operation that's been in the family for generations. We didn't set out to be outfitters. We just had good land, healthy bird populations, and friends who kept asking to hunt.
That was 35 years ago. Today we manage thousands of acres across Beadle County and hold some of the best land leases in South Dakota. The birds are still wild. Mike still guides. The only thing that's changed is the size of the operation.
Hunters who've been disappointed by "wild" hunts that turned out to be stocked birds find us eventually. Once they hunt here, they don't go back.
Good pheasant habitat doesn't happen by accident. We've spent decades working with CRP, rotating crops, and managing cover specifically for wildlife. The result: Beadle County consistently ranks among South Dakota's top pheasant-producing counties, and our land is at the heart of it.
We're farmers first. The hunting operation exists because we built something worth hunting on.
"We do not, have not, and will not ever release pen raised birds."
This isn't marketing. It's a promise. When you hunt with us, every bird you flush is a wild South Dakota pheasant. We believe this is the only honest way to do it.
We were chasing wild roosters before Facebook, before Zoom calls, before checking your phone in the field was a thing. Some things don't need to change.
