WEST TEXAS SANDHILL CRANE HUNT
Canyon, Texas:
3 Days / 3 Nights Sandhill Crane and Goose Hunt for 2 hunters.
Known as the “Ribeye of the sky”, this 3 day/3-night hunt will give you the perfect taste of adventure! Come explore thousands of acres of the flatlands of west Texas while you chase the beautiful Sandhill Crane. This package includes lodging and breakfasts at a local hotel and hearty meals and cold drinks served by staff every evening in a beautiful converted barn or we will take you to taste the cuisine at some of our favorite restaurants. The Diamond Wing Outfitters staff and guides will give you a fun filled trip while you enjoy gorgeous sunrises and good company! Each evening your guide will provide you with the pinpoint location of where the next day's hunt will be after they have scouted the best location to take our chances with this migratory species. Near or far we can drive up to an hour away to find the biggest group of cranes possible, but the spread will be set and ready for you when you arrive! Typically, we hunt out of layout blinds or a frame style brushed blinds along irrigation turrets or ditches (“There ain’t much to hide behind in West Texas”). With our experienced crew we will use our knowledge to the best of our ability for you to enjoy the beautiful sight and sound of these cranes as they pile into the region for their migration farther south. We typically finish hunting around 11am each day. This gives you ample time to get back to the hotel, grab lunch in town and take a nap before we join you for dinner and the hunting stories can commence. So, grab your shotgun and join us in and around beautiful Canyon, Texas for a trip to remember!
