Misting P-dogs

I hit one of my favorite spots for p-dogs this early AM only to see its completely wiped out via the plague, darn it for me. That was 3 square miles of great shooting until this year.
So I drove to the other dog towns on the same ranch 8 miles from that spot and they were out swarming in the misting rain. I was glad to see that, set up and got off 37 rounds before it started to rain worse on me. I didn't mind shooting in the very light misting rain, but not when it starts to soak me. The effect on the p-dogs was minimal, still sitting/feeding in the green grasses when I left. Everything was soaked due to the last 3 days of storms out there.
My best shots before I stopped was 403 yards and a triple at 387 just below the 403 shot. My phone pics are pretty washed out, yea left the good digi camerea on the counter.
I talked to the rancher when I saw him moving cattle back at the 1st empty town and he said all the other p-dog towns were not hit by the plague...yet.

Yes, I understand your pain. Where are you at and what is the rancher's name? I plan on traveling up that way soon. Thanks for being a great citizen. You can email me if this is a secret to dennwhit@gmail.com
 
Why? What's wrong here? I thought the ranchers love to get rid of the prairie dogs. I think it should be a rule no one should tell us about killing the PDs without telling us where they are.
Seriously dude? Many people spend countless hours, days, weeks, years to acquire hunting land.... sometimes a lifetime to find prime hunting land. The LAST thing a normal human would do is offer up that spot or one of his spots to a keyboard shooter that he likely doesn’t even know. If I was to offer up a Ranchers name, phone number, etc to someone I didn’t even know then NO ONE would likely be able to hunt it. The reasons could go on and on and on and on... Have some respect, put your time in, and find your own land.

It was a joke, dude.
 
The places I shoot.....the landowners want to know who you are....

especially around their livestock & very expensive irrigation equipment
 
Just shows how certain topics...like teenage daughters, grouse coverts, PD colonies, wifes stats, are all guarded with ferocity! It is the no joke zone! ;)
 
here's where I was at this morning..........retiring this ole 6BR soon as ammo is done

built it in 2002.....Pac Nor nutless Savage....12 twist...s/shot action......

shooting arena was 300-550 yds.....75 V max.....still flips 'em high !!
