The property
Brush country, and a place to come back to
Mesquite, blackbrush and prickly pear cut by senderos, with two stocked tanks and feeders the animals have been using long enough to be predictable. This is South Texas the way it actually looks, an hour and a half off the coast.
It is managed for the animals that live on it rather than for a headcount, and quiet enough that the game moves in daylight. You will get the gate code and directions once your dates are set.
Cooked here, every meal
Every meal you eat here is cooked on the ranch, which after a cold morning in a blind is a considerably bigger deal than it sounds on a website.
Tell us what you drink and it is on the shelf when you get here. The beer you drink at home, the wine you cannot find here, the bottle you have been meaning to try.
Rooms are on the ranch, so nobody drives anywhere at four in the morning. Full accommodation with laundry service and Wi-Fi come with every hunt. Ask about meals and bar preferences when you plan your trip.
A chef is available on site, depending on your hunt.
The ranch runs a small number of hunts by choice, so the place is never being turned over around you. Tell us how many are coming and we will tell you straight whether it fits.
The trip does not end when the animal drops
Take your animal on the first morning and the rest of your stay is still yours. That is not a problem to solve, it is most of the reason people come back.
Catfish in the tanks
Two stocked tanks on the property. Rods are here.
Wing shooting
Dove in season. Ask when you plan your hunt.
The .50
There is a fifty caliber on the ranch. Ask about it.
The fire
Where the day gets retold, at length, with improvements.
