About Your Trip

Just outside Abilene, Texas, the gobblers are doing what gobblers do—and for two mornings and two evenings, you’ll be right there in the middle of it. This guided hunt puts you on private land with active feeders and a seasoned local guide who knows how to work the terrain, read bird movement, and get you in position when it counts.

From crisp dawn setups to golden-hour sits in the evening, you’ll hunt prime hours on land that’s been carefully managed for success. Your guide will handle the scouting and calling—you bring the steady aim and the patience.

No guesswork. No wasted sits. Just two days of focused hunting in classic West Texas country

Dawson was great at reading the weather changes we were having. Had a great A-frame blind built for us. His decoy spread and calling put the birds right in front of us and we all shot limits of sandhill cranes in about 2 hours.

Dawson and his crew were great. They made sure that my son's first duck hunt was a awesome time and provided great customer service, not to mention a high-quality hunt.
