                                  SCHEDULE 13D

CUSIP NO. 74267L106                                                       PAGE 7

     This Amendment No. 1 amends the Schedule 13D originally filed on February
17, 2000 (the "Schedule 13D"), and relates to shares of common stock, par value
$.01 per share ("Common Stock"), of Prize Energy Corp. (formerly known as Vista
Energy Resources, Inc.), a Delaware corporation (the "Company"). The Company's
principal executive offices are located at 3500 William D. Tate, Suite 200,
Grapevine, Texas 76051. Capitalized terms used without definition in this
Amendment No. 1 shall have the respective meanings ascribed to them in the
Schedule 13D. Use of the words "herein" and "hereof" are references to the
Schedule 13D, as amended by this Amendment No. 1.

ITEM 1.   SECURITY AND ISSUER

     No modification.

ITEM 2.   IDENTITY AND BACKGROUND

     No modification.

ITEM 3.   SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION

     Item 3 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended by adding the following to the
end thereof:

     Hersh acquired an additional 14,600 shares of Common Stock reported herein
for cash in the aggregate amount of $186,474. The source of such funds was the
personal funds of Hersh.

     On March 31, 2000, a change in the percentage ownership of the Reporting
Persons occurred solely as a result of the conversion of 3,984,197 shares of
Series A 6% Convertible Preferred Stock of the Company owned by Pioneer Natural
Resources USA, Inc. into 3,984,197 shares of Common Stock and the purchase by
the Company of 1,346,482 of such shares of Common Stock. Therefore, no funds or
consideration were expended by the Reporting Persons, except the funds expended
by Hersh to acquire the 14,600 shares of Common Stock.

ITEM 4.   PURPOSE OF THE TRANSACTION

     Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended by adding the following to the
end thereof:

     Hersh purchased the 14,600 shares of Common Stock in order to acquire an
additional equity interest in the Company. Hersh acquired such securities for
investment purposes.

ITEM 5.   INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER

     Parts (a), (b) and (c) of Item 5 of the Schedule 13D are hereby replaced in
their entirety as follows:

     (a) and (b) Each of NGP V, GFWLP and GFWLLC is the beneficial owner of
7,326,821 shares of Common Stock which represent 55.2% of the outstanding shares
of Common Stock. Each such Reporting Person has the sole power to vote and
dispose of such shares. Hersh and Albin constitute a majority of the managing
members of the entity that serves as the ultimate general partner of NGP V and
they own interests in the general partner of NGP V. Accordingly, they may be
deemed to share the power to direct the vote or to direct the disposition of the
shares of Common Stock owned by NGP V. Hersh and Albin disclaim beneficial
ownership of these shares. As permitted by Rule 13d-4, the filing of this
statement shall not be construed as an admission that Hersh or Albin is the
beneficial owner of any securities beneficially owned by NGP V. Hersh is the
beneficial owner of 20,300 additional shares of Common Stock, with respect to
which he has the sole power of vote and disposition.

     (c) Except for the Merger and the acquisition of shares of Common Stock
therein, the Reporting Persons have not effected any transactions in Common
Stock during the past 60 days except that Hersh acquired 14,600 shares of Common
Stock during the period from February 18 to March 7, 2000.

ITEM 6.   CONTRACTS, ARRANGEMENTS, UNDERSTANDINGS OR RELATIONSHIPS WITH RESPECT
          TO SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER

     No modification.

ITEM 7.   MATERIAL TO BE FILED AS EXHIBITS

     No modification.

     After reasonable inquiry and to the best of their knowledge and belief,

statement is true, complete and correct.
