ABearWithFurniture Posted October 2, 2009 Author Share Posted October 2, 2009 (edited) Well before sunrise this morning, a lone eye witness stated that Panhandle Pete the Prairie Dog was washed out of his burrow by a flash flood, hit by a few pieces of baseball sized hail, and then struck by lightning before disappearing from view in a swirling vortex of floodwater, tree limbs, cattle and SUVs... Texas meteorologists have interpreted this to mean 8 more weeks of Summer with many, many moderate to intense isolated and scattered thunderstorms. You might want to park your truck in the garage...

westvirginia Posted October 2, 2009 Share Posted October 2, 2009 they make great targets. Vitals the size of a playing card and you absolutely won't get within 200 yards of one. That said, it's a real accomplishment to kill one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

westvirginia Posted October 2, 2009 Share Posted October 2, 2009 longest kill is 550 That's a hell of a shot. I've never been out to PD hunt, but I'd like to go. I've never killed anything further than 320-ish (stepped off). And that was one fat ground hog just sitting out in the sun in a freshly mowed hayfield.

In SD the farmers love having you come out at take out a few. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rebellab Posted October 2, 2009 Share Posted October 2, 2009 (edited) So how do you cook your PD after you shoot it? You leave it lay in the sun on a hot summer day. When it is good and bloated up, a friendly coyote comes by and has him for a late night snack. Later in the winter you shoot the no good coyote and he rots in the pasture, where the young steer is grazing and eats the grass fertilized by the rotting coyote. Said steer is butchered and made into a nice ribeye that I cook medium rare on my grill. It is quite a process, but worth every bite.
