Prairie Dogs
« on: July 07, 2006, 05:51:27 PM »
Does anybody have any idea where I may could find some prairie dogs to shoot within a days drive of Dallas?  If nobody knows of a specific location, just a general location such as a city or town will get me closer than I am now.  I will be in Dallas later this month and would love to find a place to try my luck if at all possible.  Many thanks!!!

 ::)For years the ranchers did everything in their power to rid their ranch of the pesty little critters, today it is awful hard to find anyone that will let you shoot them.  There was a big villiage north of town on land that was being developed.  A local rancher donated a piece of property and the entire villiage was trapped and moved to the new location.  In this area, due to the reduced numbers you are not going to find hunting readilly available, and if you do, likely you will need deep pockets before you pop a shot.

Other than the villiage that was moved, I can't remember the last one I seen. :o
