Could someone direct me to a place where I could do some prarie dog hunting. I'm from southern Louisiana, so we don't have them here. I'm looking for an outfitter for a paid hunt for a couple of days in the spring, summer, or fall. Can anyone help me out. Not sure where to begin looking. I do ALOT of hunting and fishing down here and I would be interested in maybe a swap...prarie dog hunting for me, and redfishing and boat touring the Atchafalya Basin(as seen on "Swamp People") for you. haha!
Anyone interested?

Since your making in the big trip I'd research western South Dakota. Besides excellent population of PD's everyone should check out the Badland's, Rushmore, and Crazy Horse. Plenty of hunting opportunities all over that area, can hit the sites pretty easy. There are tons of outfitters/lodge/guides that offer thousands of acres to hunt.

Depending on your interest Sturgis is in Sept. so if you like the Hogs it's a good time to visit. Of course if you want to avoid the crowd and thousands of bikes avoid this time of the year.

The other option I'd look at is Colorado, totally different area than what your used to and that would be interesting beyond the hunt. I don't know the area as far as hunting, but the landscape is fantastic.

Thanks for the info guys. I would love to go to SD, but I think I'll stick with Texas since I can drive there. Never knew they had PD's in Texas.
