    Nestled in the oak covered hills of North Central Texas, the hunts are conducted fair chase - on foot, safari style, or in stands (hunters choice). A combination of open pasture and thick brush offer excellent escape cover for animals and a challenge for the Hunter.


    All hunts are fully guided. Our no-kill-no-pay policy guarantees the hunter will pay only for the game killed. In the event that no game is harvested, only a daily guide fee and lodge and meal expense will apply.

    We have a lodge that comes complete with Satellite TV. Also, we have rifle, pistol, archery and skeet ranges. We can accommodate up to 20 guests and 3 home-cooked meals are available. Meals and lodging are $95.00 per day at the ranch (includes 3 meals, cape & quartering, trophy prep and delivery to our taxidermist). Motel rooms are also available in nearby Jacksboro, Bridgeport, and Decatur. A walk-in cooler and a freezer is available for game storage.


    You are welcome to hunt with rifle, bow, black powder, or handgun. Valid hunting license can be purchased at local locations.

    A 25% non-refundable deposit is required upon booking a hunt. We also accept all major credit cards.

    Our guides will insure a quality and safe hunting experience. We also can score your trophies for the Record of Exotics, Safari Club, and Trophy Records of the World. Our local taxidermists can take care of your trophy needs.
