The Helm family on lower Tongue River used to do Prairie dog hunts out of there bed and breakfast. They are about 20 miles south of Miles City Montana. If you can't find anything on them send me a PM and I will do some digging.
I can't believe that cop put me in the back seat when I clearly called shotgun.

A friend of mine offers Prairie Dog Hunts but they quit for the time being because it's just to dry and he doesn't want to risk starting a wildfire . Two Leggins Outfitters Hardin Mt

Seems like all he has left is later in the year July/august. I’ve read that tall grass may be a factor. Is that a thing? Pdogs keep the grass mowed down, part of why ranchers hate them. I was laying prone calling on a town yesterday and could see pdogs 600 yds out fine. They are snake magnets though so keep your eyes and ears peeled.

I also shot prairie dogs in the zortman area. This is a great do it yourself shoot area! We camped in the campgrounds outside of Zortman, on the south end of the little Rockies. Lots of BLM ground there, also the little store in Zortman has a map of known Prairie dog towns they will give you. Late spring , early summer are best when the younger ones are out. Might just have to get over next spring for old times sake. I believe it is about 3 hrs north of Hardin.
And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgement!

Lots of public grasslands West River that's open to the public maybe call the BLM in Ft Pierre and see what they can tell you.

Yes Dave is quite a character, he's a good friend of mine and yes there's places you can just go to then ask permission and like anywhere else if you got onto the wrong side of the fence so to speak it could get expensive .
