KANSAS PRARIE DOG HUNTING

Post by ALP »

Hey guys,has anybody shot prarie dogs in Kansas? Is there any decent populations in that state.If so,what part of the state would be the best place? I heard that a lot of countys poison the dog towns.Im not looking for your honey hole but would be thankful if someone could point me in the right direction in that state.

ALP-
We've shot in western Kansas/eastern Colorado but because of protracted drought, and other factors, the numbers are down a bunch. I was shocked to see the total lack of vegetation. I can't speak to the poison issue but I know it happens. Usually, plague is the big population controller. This June (2013) we shot for 2 days in a huge colony that has seen a lot of pressure. 3 shooters took maybe a hundred each day and many were long shots. They were spooky buggers. My experience says look to the west side but don't expect to be overrun.
