Wings of Thunder is truly a wing shooters paradise and a gentleman’s hunt.  A perfect hunting destination for corporate outings and a great place to bring your clients for a hunt they won’t soon forget.

The state of South Dakota is renowned for its rolling hills, fertile farm country, and sweeping plains bisected by scenic lakes and streams. Pheasants flock to these lands and are sought after game.

Wings of Thunder Hunting Lodge, located in Kimball, South Dakota, is a wing shooter’s paradise. Hunters are likely to see hundreds of strong, fast-flying, wily pheasants as soon as they step into the field. Our high concentration of pheasants, first-rate accommodations, warm and friendly staff, as well as our extremely competitive prices, make Wings of Thunder the best value in the business.

We were referred to Wings of Thunder by other happy web clients. In February 2018, I reached out to Brad and Jeri Donald, owners and hosts of Wings of Thunder, who expressed interest in wanting a new website designed immediately.

Brad and Jeri grew unhappy with their old website hosting company, who charged lots and was unreasonable, and their previous designer was unresponsive when it came to timely updates and monthly maintenance of their website.

After referring them, and transferring, to new website hosts, the project was underway in mid March, 2018. Their new media-driven, and beautiful website was completed in early April, 2018.

Having designed a handful of websites for hunting guides and outfitters, the main objectives I deliver is strong SEO, media-driven content that is based on high resolution photography and video, and an overall web experience that is pleasant, engaging, and compelling for visitors and hunters to want to book a trip with their hosts. This new website delivers everything! It is one of my most stunning hunting guide/outfitter websites to date, delivering a stunning visual experience to readers and visitors on desktop and mobile platforms.

The goal of this website revamp was to improve Brad and Jeri’s branding & marketing, the page loading, mobile browsing, SEO, photos and video, and navigation. My services also deliver them timely updating and monthly maintenance when requested.

Last but not least, my SEO strategy will make this website the #1 visited and most popular pheasant hunting website and outfitter in the state of South Dakota.
