About Your Trip

Get ready for a thrilling Texas Sandhill Crane hunt, often called the "ribeye of the sky" for their delicious meat! Based out of Lubbock, Texas, this 4-hour hunt offers the opportunity to target these majestic birds as they migrate through the Texas Panhandle. Whether you're a seasoned hunter or a first-timer looking for a unique hunting experience, this trip delivers the action and excitement you've been craving.

You’ll be hunting in prime crane habitat where expert guides will set you up for success. As dawn breaks, you’ll hear the distinctive calls of Sandhill Cranes overhead, offering the perfect shot opportunities throughout the morning. The wide-open fields and skies of the Panhandle provide the ideal backdrop for this unforgettable experience.

Bring your shotgun, ammo, and gear, and we’ll take care of the rest—including game cleaning, so you can head home with your harvest prepped and ready for the grill. Perfect for groups of up to 12 guests, this hunt is great for family outings, groups of friends, or corporate trips.

Join us in Lubbock for a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to hunt one of the most sought-after game birds in North America!

Each trip's price is determined by the guide and reflects all associated costs. A significant factor in pricing is often the type of boat and the corresponding fuel expenses.
