Gopher hunting (Medicine Hat area)

Here’s how to shoot gophers.... drive around until you see lots, take a look at the county map and see where the owner lives. Knock on his door and have a chat, in all likelihood he’ll be thrilled to let you shoot some furry little sausages.
If he says no, thank him politely and check out another property.

Good luck and enjoy your time with your dad.

x2 ........... not hard to find in this neck of the woods. Ranchers and farmers are generally happy to get any help that they can. Be polite, respectful and follow any rules they ask you to follow. Stopping in to say thank you at the end of the the day is never a bad idea either. Good luck and enjoy shooting them.

Free landowner maps are available on the Cypress Count website. Can be downloaded to a portable device. Each page is also scaled to "11 by 17" for easy printing.

consider it probation
 
You have to be a member for 30 days I expect with 20 posts before your full membership kicks in similar to sales ads as too many scammers would join and try to sell something right away.

Thanks for the heads up, I was looking to see if I could find something but didn’t come across anything !
