We are heading back to West Texas for the hunt you’ve all been waiting for: an epic sandhill crane hunt with our friends over at Tejas Waterfowl. You might also know them as Northern Skies Outfitters while they are chasing snow geese in Arkansas, South Dakota or Canada! We hosted 3 hunts with Tejas last year and we couldn’t have been happier! Each hunt was successful and catered exactly to our needs.
Crane hunting is truly one of the fastest growing species in the waterfowl world to hunt and for good reason...they decoy like a dream! The Texas Panhandle winters thousands of cranes that give you plenty of action. This is truly a hunt like no other! The guides are happy to clean your birds or they will show each of you in detail how to clean them yourselves. Sandhill Crane meat is called Ribeye of the sky because it is so delicious so be sure to bring a cooler to pack your meat home with you!
The cost of this trip will be $950 which will include two mornings of guided hunting and two nights of lodging at our beautiful Airbnb in Lubbock, Texas.
