2026 Prairie Dog Hunt

Prairie dog shooting is about the most fun you can have while shooting. Envision "Wack a Mole" with a rifle. The Club has sponsored these before and everyone had a great time. Jim Shepherd the coordinator of this hunt for the Club has shot dogs with this same outfitter several times and is back for more.

We will travel to the Panhandle or Eastern New Mexico for lots of shooting! The current plan is to drive out Friday morning, May 8, with hunting planned for Friday afternoon, Saturday, and Sunday morning. Our guide will scout the area and determine which of several ranches we will hunt, and the best town to stay in.  For the moment, plan on Dalhart, TX. This is subject to change, if the hunting is better elsewhere. 

Cost is $350.00 per shooter for two days of shooting.  Once the exact location is picked we will find lodging nearby. Each hunter will pay for their own room and meals.

Prairie dogs are about 2 to 3 times the size of a squirrel so you don’t need a big caliber. Shots will normally be from 100 to 300 yards depending on the size of the “town”. An idea rifle is a .223 AR, which gives instant follow up shots. On a shoot in 2020 one of our members shot 250 rounds the first morning with that weapon. Any of the fast .22s would be good. A semi auto is best but bolt guns work too.

If we hunt in NM, you will need a NM non-game hunting license which you can buy online. Nongame species include prairie dogs, rabbits, ground squirrels, coyotes, skunks and Himalayan tahr. You can purchase your license at https://onlinesales.wildlife.state.nm.us/ The cost of the nonresident non game license is $65. If you have hunted in NM before you will have a Customer ID. The website gives you a chance to recover it, if you don’t know it. Hunter Ed requirements apply in NM too.
