I just got back from my sandhill crane hunt out in west Texas and I’m happy to report that I had a great trip. In addition to telling the story of this hunt, I’ll share some insights into what crane taste like, and the potential reason why they taste so darn good in this episode. You'll also learn how it all got started with a chance encounter I had with Steve Rinella many years ago.

Purchase the Hunting Guns 101 online training and you'll learn the essentials of practical ballistics and what firearms, sighting systems, cartridges, and ammunition you should be using on your future hunts to improve your odds of success afield.
You will also learn things like:
- What the “shot placement is everything” crowd gets dangerously wrong about terminal ballistics and why you’re setting yourself up for failure following that advice.
- The little known, but vitally important characteristics true experts look at when evaluating cartridges and specific bullets for a particular hunting situation (and I’m not talking about kinetic energy).
- The real reasons why bullets will sometimes unexpectedly fail on big game and how to avoid those situations.
- The important task most people forget to do when traveling a long distance with their rifle for a hunt that can be the difference between success and failure afield.
- Four different, very specific, and sometimes counterintuitive combinations of bullet characteristics and performance that are virtually guaranteed to deliver extremely quick kills and short tracking jobs on almost any species of big game in the world.
