Now booking sandhill crane hunts for 2010-2011 season. All hunts conducted over mounted sandhill crane decoys. If you have never hunted sandhill crane over decoys you need to try it. www.fowlplayoutfitters.com

What time of year do you have the most success?

pm sent ......... click the red flashing envelope towards the top of your screen. Thanks.

Typicaly I like to start hunting cranes after Thanksgiving. From then on there are really large concentrations of birds.

Whereabouts do you hunt? I'll start talking to my buddies and see if we can get something going.

if you would empty your voicemail box i could leave you a message
& maybe i will book a hunt

Sorry about the voicemail. I've had several calls today. It's now empty.

Free bump for a big bird, y'all need to try this.

Do you eat Sand Hill Crane or is hunting them just for sport? If you eat them are they good?

Sandhills are great, breast them out and cut the breast meat across the grain into slices 1/2 to 3/4 inch thick. You can either bread and fry them or one of my favorites is to use Shake and Bake for chicken and just cook them in the oven.

Sandhills are like the prime rib of the sky. I haven't had one of those since I was a kid. We used to see them down here a lot but I can't remember the last time I saw one.

We've got about 3000 that roost on the big lake at the ranch and close to 30,000 that roost on the big salt lakes west of town. Nobody called or decoyed them back when we were hunting them, we just hunted certain flyways depending on the wind. The more wind the better and set up with them having to fly into the wind whether coming or going to the roost.

They are great to eat......

carribean jerk sauce for 6 hours....grill medium rare and serve with baked potato....

Some great hunts here with a great guide. I would definitely recommend you give Zach a call.

Crane hunts are an unbelievable experience.

You're right Tx Geese, we converted many duck and goose hunters to full time sandhill addicts. Still have a few weekends open, and several week days.

same question Where in the panhandle????

We hunt in the Lubbock area.

Will the season run through December?

Season runs till Feb 6th.

Couple of weekend spots left Dec 11 & 12, Jan 22 & 23, Jan 29 & 30th.
