People sit here and defend the farmers and such, and say how much money they make off these hunters. Yeah, they do make a ton of money off them... but they don't "like" them. Get any of them aside and put a little "truth serum" in them and most absolutely HATE the out of state hunters that come and pay them thousands every year.
I'm thinking they must like me then. I have never paid a dime to hunt pheasants in South Dakota. I've had a lot of guys want to charge me money but I politely say no thank you and go off to knock on a different door. I've always had folks allow me to hunt their land for free. None of them have ever been hostile. You must live in a bad neighborhood. Either that or you are making stuff up as you go.

I just got back from kicking another 2 idiots off our ground. These morons were from minnesota. They jumped out into our tree strip, which is no more than 60yds from the house, and started banging away. I got there just as they were dragging two pheasants back to the truck. I blocked the road, scolded them like children, took the pheasants, and told them if I ever see them again they will be detained and arrested.
Well, thank goodness you didn't punch them in the mouth, shoot them, run them over with your old chevy or disarm them and detain them at gunpoint. Nonya, in regards to your question, no, it's not legal to confiscate illegally (or legally) taken game in South Dakota.
It makes me wonder if Orkan does as much pheasant hunting as he claims. Maybe the local CO needs to do a check to see if he's over his limit????
