Blue prairie dog!
« on: May 27, 2013, 01:46:11 PM »
I took my RV out and camped in the area [size=78%]I have done a lot of prairie shooting in the past. Since I planned to stay a few days, I hooked up my drain hose to the sewer dump and put it down a prairie dog hole and after my tank was half full, I dumped dow the hole. No mess. The next day I noticed a BLUE prairie dog standing about 50 yards from the RV. He was scratching and I noticed he kept his little nose as high up into the air as he could. I also noticed there were NO prairie dogs downwind of him. The shoot ended well because for the next three days, all I had to do was locate Blue Boy and then just go upwind. All the other prairie dogs were pretty much staying upwind of him. An unusual tactic but I highly recommend it![/size]

So did you put him out of his misery, or think he had suffered enough?  :o

He has turned into somewhat of a celebrity. Tourists traveling along I-80 stop and take his picture every day. He has probably been fed more potato chips and crackers than any other prairie dog in Wyoming.

Dogshooter,


Were the pups up yet?  I bet the prairie is nice and green with all the rain out in the Dakotas!  How was the shooting?


Hope you had a great time,
