Prairie dog hunt
fairly successful
Blair Flynn of Overbrook reports prairie dog hunting has been difficult this summer in Ness County.
The heat has kept them mostly underground and when they do surface they're shielded by the tall prairie grasses.
Nevertheless, Flynn reported he managed to kill 276 prairie dogs during the week of Aug. 23-27, nailing about 75 percent of his targets.
