Safari Unlimited: Texas Sandhill Crane Hunt: Known as the “Ribeye of the sky”, sandhill cranes are just as enjoyable to eat as they are to hunt. If you haven’t tried hunting for cranes, it’s something you need to experience for the sight of cranes landing in the decoys and the sound of them coming in alone. So, head to west Texas and join our friends at Safari Unlimited for a 3 day/3 night crane hunt on the flatlands.
Each evening your guide will provide you with the pin location of where the next day's hunt will be after they have scouted the best location, where they will set up layout blind or A-frame style brushed blinds along irrigation tunnels or in ditches. Although sandhill cranes are a notoriously difficult species to decoy, with the experience crew at Safari Unlimited, you are bound to enjoy some exciting crane hunting. Each hunter can shoot up to 3 cranes per day and 5 lesser Canadians per day, but limits may not be met each day depending on hunting conditions and migration patterns for both species. That said, when the birds are in, they’re in! Hunting typically finishes 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!
