Prairie dogs, anyone?

[Engineer1911]

Live near Augusta, GA, moved here from MN / WI in 1989. Have shot prairie dogs since 1982, but this was not the year to go. Also enjoy Bullseye 2700 but age is opening up the group sizes. S&W revolver owner with a few off-brand 1911 pistols. The true sporting use of an AR-15 is best demonstrated in a prairie dog town with a 20 round mag. Bet result was 14 hits with 20 rounds on a calm day from the top of the hill.

No prairie dogs, but we do get coyotes. If gas weren't so expensive and the population so dense, it would be a great place to snake hunt. I'll eventually get to go hog hunting again.

My son and I traveled to South Dakota a few years back and shoot prairie dogs and hunt some pheasants. It was a remarkable trip.

I landed at the Big Spring, TX airport back in in 90's and the airport was ate up with prairie dogs. I asked the guy doing the refueling if they minded if I brought a rifle the next time I came by. He said bring it on, but I never made it back there. Saw a lot of them in Pueblo, CO, etc. The cattle ranchers hate them.

I hear they carry black plague like trash pandas carry rabies.

Live stock can break a leg stepping in the holes made by them.

There's enough reason to use them as target practice!
