Texas Metroplex v Erath & Palo Pinto Counties v Gordon
In the beautiful hills near Gordon, just an hour west of DFW, the focal point of this 92-acre retreat is the barn home. Beginning its life about 1810 as an English barn in Middleburg, New York, it was reassembled using the traditional mortise and tenon method and no nails. This four-bedroom, three-bath residence has a Vermont wood-burning stove, capable of heating the entire house, as well as central heat and air. Several interior doors are from the 18th century and an antique cast iron bell hangs from the cupola. The house runs purely on rain catchment and with two water wells and four stock tanks; this property is well watered for family, livestock and wildlife. Topography varies with the home sitting on the side of a hill overlooking the front half of the property and the surrounding hills. Other improvements include a couple of hay or equipment sheds, newly built wooden ban and a small cabin. 30 acres of productive coastal Bermuda, wooded hills and flats and tons of trails and native grasslands make this an ideal recreational retreat. $875,000.

The Dipper Ranch

South Texas v Webb County v Freer
The Dipper Ranch is a 5,600-acre high fence whitetail deer hunting ranch and breeding operation abundant with native South Texas game, including trophy whitetail, dove, quail, javelin, wild hogs, buffalo, trophy bass and a variety of small game. The ranch is 23 miles from Encinal and 24 miles from Freer. The front entrances touch Highway 44. The owners have invested considerable resources and time into the Dipper Ranch with the goal of building a world-class whitetail hunting experience. While the ranch is blessed with excellent native brush, the owners launched an intensive supplemental feeding and range improvement program. Over the years, they have installed 32 protein feeder stations that provide in excess of 120 tones of protein annually. The wild deer population is approximately one deer per every 14 acres. Even though Dipper Ranch possesses incredible native whitetail genetics, an intensive pasture management program has been designed and implemented. To support their program, the owners constructed a deer breeding facility in 2007 to further enhance the development and quality of their whitetail population. The trophy breeding herd consists of ten 200+ Boone & Crockett-class whitetail bucks and 150 does of superior genetic quality. The Dipper Ranch has abundant water with 13 lakes and ponds, stocked with fish, as well as 1 water well. There are 20,000+ square feet of new facilities, which include a main house, guest quarters, ranch foreman’s house and a ranch facilities manager’s house. In addition, a 10,000-square-foot operations hub includes a mechanics shop, welding and fabrications facility plus a wood working shop. Last, there is a 11,250-square-foot equipment storage facility that includes a ranch office with a game processing and storage room. Owner will convey of all owner’s minerals which is approximately a 1/8 plus 50% royalty on 640 acres.

Caiman Ranch
O
1,000 to 2,002 Acres
South Texas v La Salle County v Encinal
Originally part of the 250,000-acre Callaghan Ranch, the Caiman Ranch was in the same family from 1947 up until 2008. About 140 miles south of San Antonio, 55 miles northeast of Laredo and 20 miles east of Encinal, this property is long known as the “Promised Land” for bruiser, whitetail bucks. Caiman Ranch carries the reputation as one of the best whitetail deer ranches in Texas.
Deer taken from the ranch have consistently won local contests, including Los Cazadores, the Muy Grande and the Cola Blanca. This sportsman’s paradise also features lots of turkey, wild hogs, quail and dove. The ranch is fenced and cross-fenced into four pastures and features 8-foot net wire game-proof fencing along the eastern boundary and barbed wire fencing along the remaining boundaries. All of the major South Texas brush species are represented in abundance, including guajillo, guayacan, granjeno, blackbrush, mesquite trees and Huisache trees, which provide food for wildlife, in addition to the excellent brush. Improvements include a 4,200-square-foot, Spanish-style hacienda with six bedrooms, five baths, concrete slab, stucco exterior, Saltillo tile floors, mostly 9-foot ceilings, deep porches and a large walled courtyard with a traditional outdoor fountain. Other buildings include a 1,700-square-foot foreman’s house with three bedrooms and two baths, a 2,665-square-foot barn, a 1,640-square-foot shed and a 600-square-foot workshop. The Caiman Ranch also features plentiful water and excellent level to gently rolling topography. Ranging in elevation from 393 feet at the main entrance to about 322-feet in the Los Olmos Creekbed, the ranch features soils with clay or loam surface layers, which are the key to the excellent, diverse vegetation. A 4,280-foot-deep well out of the Carrizo Aquifer supplies water to the headquarters, one of two stock tanks on the ranch and various water troughs. Wet-weather Olmos Creek flows through the western section of the ranch, and holds pockets of water for extended periods of time. This is the perfect opportunity for an outdoorsman who desires to own one of the best whitetail deer herds in the state.

Kit Carson’s family traveled up and down the creek and over this beautiful Kentucky Farm. Daniel Boone led his hunting parties through this area as they looked for whitetail deer and

turkeys. Fortunately, they did not get them all, as they remain bountiful on these 753+ acres bounded by approximately three miles of beautiful Silver Creek. Boone’s party was not the
only hunters on this land, as Indian tribes made this area part of their “Kaintuck” hunting grounds. Many remains of these hunting expeditions have been located, and two large Indian mounds remain, having been protected by the current owner. This beautiful farm has city water, two cattle working facilities, lots of rolling hillsides, beautiful flat and rich bottomland and many beautiful homesite views. If you love the outdoors, hunting and fishing, this becomes a must see. For complete information and disc containing property photos, contact 859 582-6888 or minegwen@aol.com.
