A group of us have taken a yearly waterfowl trip the past few years and I'm looking to change it up a bit. I'm looking for a guide service that will accommodate a few days of hunting for all there species mentioned. Looking to mix and match hunts for instance maybe a morning duck hunt and an evening pheasant hunt or a morning pheasant and evening goose hunt ect. If anyone can help out or refer a good guide service that wont break the bank that would be great, Thanks.

Stanfield Outfitters in Knox City is who you're looking for.
I've hunted with them, and I really like their operation. Geese are the big thing for them, though they also have the duck and pheasant hunts. These guys will put the geese in your lap. No pass shooting crap.

Panhandle's Best in Amarillo offers all three PLUS Sandhill crane. Very professional and good guys to boot. They hunt Sandhills over "Stuffers " , taxidermy mounts in family groupings .

No pass shooting crap. Stanfield for sure. My buddy and I had a blast while we were there. Talking about putting a group together to go back this year.

I hunt every year with stanfield and panhandles best. They both well run operations. I prefer panhadles for them cranes and geese since he is on the X between amarillo and lubbock. Stanfield is good too for them geese an pheasants. Both have good guides. Knox city had good rain last month, but you know how fast that can dry out. The playas are 3/4 full, so thats good news. Just toooo much cotton and wheat out west instead of the beloved peanuts. I realise they have to rotate crops and bla bla bla bla. Point is, way, way less peanutfields compared to lets say 15 years ago No water = tough hunts Less food = ugh, tough hunts No water and less food = fill the blanks yourself...

Might give Dane with Tule Creek Outfitters a call. Hunted with him and had a blast. He's in between Lubbock and amarillo also. Hey Beave they have been getting a ton of rain lately in Amarillo and Lubbock. Lot of flooded fields as of Monday. It'd be nice if it'd stay that way.
OMG, this is the best slumber party ever!

Too early to tell on the Pheasant hatch but after numerous trips to Amarillo from the Lubbock area in the past month and seeing the playas all holding water ( lots of water ). I predict a super waterfowl season. Pick any of the above mentioned outfitters and you'll have great time IMO. It's raining right now as I'm writing and quite a bit too.
