What type of property is it legal to shoot on without explicit permission in South Dakota?

  1. Public lands designated for hunting

  2. Private lands not posted

  3. State parks

  4. None, permission is always required

The correct answer is: Public lands designated for hunting

In South Dakota, it is legal to shoot on public lands designated for hunting without explicit permission. These areas are specifically set aside for hunting activities, so individuals can target practice and hunt on these lands without needing individual permission. It is important to note that shooting on private lands without permission is illegal in South Dakota, even if the land is not posted. State parks, on the other hand, generally have restrictions against shooting activities, so permission would be required to shoot in these areas.
