[QUOTE="nkyshooter, post: 1196033, member: 83787"] Hello guys ... I would like to fulfill a life long dream of my aging father. He has wanted to go on a prairie dog hunt for many years and as a result of his age/health, I am approaching the end of the window of opportunity for him to realize this dream. I'm looking for some guidance/advice on how to cost effectively maximize chances of success. Guides seem to be a great way to maximize success (I think anyway) but at $400-$450/day per hunter, this is challenging for us when all the other costs are factored in (travel, ammo, licenses, etc, etc) So - I have heard much good about p-dog hunting in South Dakota but am open to other locations ... we'll most likely be driving in from Ohio so we're trying to combine a decent blend of minimized drive time with good quality, cost effective hunting. That said, we're not married to the idea of South Dakota and are open to other good options. Please offer any advice guidance you can on the subject? If we need to just 'bite the bullet' and hire a guide - let us know that ... if hiring a guide is throwing money away, please let us know that ... if you were in my shoes trying to do what I'm trying to do and get in 2-3 days of good hunting, how would you go about it. Much thanks in advance from myself and an old retired preacher (my Dad) ... Tim [/QUOTE]
