FARM STORY

primarily on our fawns. While there are other things that might be more exciting like breeding or antlers, your fawns are the backbone and future of your herd and the ones you care about the most. When you lose fawns, you lose years. This year the whole country is going to be looking for Champion, Resistol, Tribute and Blitz babies and they need to make it.”

Sharing his passion for whitetails and anything related to the 23,000-acre ranch is Garner’s wife Brea, 34, and children Easton, 8, and Maci, 6. This fall a new hunting lodge will be completed and ready for hunters at the ranch’s preserve, Tributary Sporting Club. Hunters will not only have an opportunity to harvest an elite whitetail, but 25 different species of exotics including red stag, fallow deer, sable, Gemsbok, black buck, eland, bison and zebra among others.

The Tributary Sporting Club participates in the Lower Colorado River Authority (LCRA) tributary land and water conservation project. “We are proud to be a part of this project and also proud to welcome hunters and those who have helped make this industry what it is today,” Garner said. “We remain committed to providing the industry with what it needs from superior genetics to once-ina-lifetime hunts.”
