Pawnee National Grassland

Went out to Pawnee today. Was a cold and overcast when I arrived (0900) but clear skies and warmer when I left (1130). Wasn't busy at all, only three other cars when I got there, me and another guy I was leaving. I'd never been back to large area in the back before today.

What's it like out there? Is it wide open prairie? Or are the some hills or bluffs to shoot into? Any trees? 4x4 needed?

hardly any trees, no 4x4 required, hills / gullys to shoot into.. if it's close, go check it out. Not worth the drive otherwise, IMHO. (YMMV)

Thanks! I live in Parker, so it damn sure ain't close. I thought driving to the South Shoot area above Woodland Park was a long, brutal drive, but Pawnee makes it look like a picnic.

Getting ready to sign up for a membership at the Ben Lomond club in Ramah, out by Kiowa. That's only ~50 miles from home, but I don't think we can shoot at cans and water balloons, only "NRA approved" paper targets, but I have to confirm that. Still better than not shooting at all. 560 acres of private land for shooting, gotta love it!

I also need to try and find a place to shoot pasture poodles, that sounds like a lot of fun!

Heh Rondog, I live out by southlands mall and hope to find a wide open place east of you and I. I'll keep my eyes open..

I just joined up at Ben Lomond's tonight, but I'm still in the market for a place to shoot those adorable little rodents.
