This kind of a statewide draw is the type thing I hate. Why not have a 1 bird limit, and a 5 day season? Oh wait, that would be too easy. And wouldn't generate more money.
"If it pleases the crown, may we hunt thy game?" This. Right. Here.
The harder I practice, the luckier I get.

They were all over the place in Brooksville Fl. They weren’t scared of much either. You see all our yellow trucks over there? Not when I went through there last week. I saw your trucks where the interstate splits last year. If you’re working around Brooksville and like BBQ I have some good intel for you. We are rebuilding that interchange at SR 50/US 98 and I-75. Also still on the one at the Turnpike and 75. Yes, please share the BBQ, I haven't found one decent place down here in 5 years.
not sure what the best way to handle them is but they shouldnt be on tv and gettn married and raisin kids

I'll put in for a tag. I don't think we have any in Crenshaw county so I may have to get a little help from some one in North Alabama. Where did you go to apply? The email notification about this I got today said: "Information regarding sandhill crane hunts and the registration process will be provided through our website www.outdooralabama.com in the coming months." So i went to the website and i could not find anything.

I will put in for one. Arent there some that end up in North Alabama every year? Wheeler refuge winters thousands of them each year. They fly to and stop on the refuge and other land in North Alabama on the migration to Florida. Weather plays a big role in the migration, just like with waterfowl, woodcock, etc. Some mouthbreathing shitweasels killed several years ago out in Mooresville and left them in the field. It wasn't discussed too publicly because they were trying to find out who did it. Kentucky requires selected applicants to take an online "test" to make sure you know the difference between sandhills, whooping cranes and blue herons. Kentucky also requires a mandatory post-season survey to be completed or you cannot apply for the next season's tags. I'm trying to figure out how and where 400 people will hunt in the primary area -- North Alabama -- when there isn't much public land where the sandhills hang out. Could be a lot of complaints about poaching and/or trespassing. Will be interesting to see what happens.

My first year hunting I only hunted Wheeler, and I had no idea what I was doing. I also had no idea what a Sandhill crane was. I had one of (or really a few) those things scare the crap out of me. Them sons of guns can be loud.

.. Them sons of guns can be loud. and they make a strange sound, too! had a flock fly over one day while in the deer stand, just north of West Point (MS). guy in another stand and I were txt'ing back and forth trying to figure out what the sound was, until they flew overhead and we could see them. definitely a delicious bird...and no didn't down one that day to try it.
experience is a freakin' awesome teacher....

Try the pizza place by the Winn Dixie. 2 slices and a drink for around $6. Good pizza and great service.
May the sound of hounds never die!
