Looking for Pdogs in Eastern Colorado

[DeadElephant]

Looking to meet up with my dad on eastern side of state. He lives in central Nebraska. Anyone have recommendations over that way. My scouting hasn't taken me that far.
Thanks,
Rex

Lots on private land out there. Not a lot on public.

Best to just pick some towns and ask around. I spent a lot of time (years) around Kit Carson and Cheyenne Wells out east, there are some large dog towns out that way, but all on private land. Even knowing the owners of the land didn't help much in getting access. Specifically look for a field that has water troughs and cows on the land. Land owners don't like the dog towns because the cows fall in the holes and get injured.

Best to get off the highway, find a major county road and drive down it for 10-30 miles checking for dog towns, large farms, stop and ask. Cash, cold Beer and friendly chit chat helps get you access. Don't come across as a big city jerk. The more you know about farming, tractors and guns is a plus. Don't be in a hurry.

Also, the land you see a dog town on might not be owned by anyone local. Most land is leased by another person for grazing and farming.

Try towns like Holyoke, Yuma, Wray, Julesburg.

Remember: DON'T SHOOT THE COWS! (or any direction towards them)

Grew up farming and ranching in Nebraska, I speak farmer real well. My Dad long since retired but still drives grain trucks in the fall. All the ground in NE that we used to shoot on has center pivots and corn on it. That gets rid of the dogs pretty fast.
I usually buy the county plot maps for where I'm looking. They'll list the owner and a phone number. These days most are trusts or corps so it's kind of hard to figure out who owns it.
I'll just have to invest a weekend and a bunch of gas. It's kind of like going home talking to all the farmers so its enjoyable (just expensive these days).
I appreciate the feedback.

You could check the County records. It's public information and you can find out who the current land owners are.
