Shoot Sandhill Cranes and Geese with Mark Meissenburg
Amarillo, Texas

Let's go shoot sandhill cranes and geese near Amarillo, Texas, with the most well-known crane guide in the country, Mark Meissenburg. This area is home to 500,000 wintering cranes and, when they take to the air, the sound is almost deafening. Upwards of 700,000 geese also winter in the Texas Panhandle -- mostly lesser Canada or short grass prairie geese ranging from 4-6 lbs. but also greater Canadas from 9-13 lbs. later in the season. We will travel on Dec. 10, shoot geese in the morning and cranes in the afternoon on the 11th, and cranes in the morning on the 12th, and then head from home on the 12th. Cost is $250 pp/day with a 3-person minimum for the morning hunt (either bird); $225 pp/day with 5 shooters. An additional $175 covers the afternoon hunt for the cranes on the 11th. So, total is $675 for 3 people and $625 for 5 people. I have done this hunt twice and highly recommend it. Need a deposit of $300 pp (non-refundable) no later than March 15th. The price covers breakfast, lunch, soft beverages and bird cleaning. Extra costs are the licenses, 2 nights motel and supper. You can have your hunt videotaped for an extra $75.
