About Your Trip

Nick and his team invite you to join them on their Trophy Bowhunting Ranch just west of San Antonio with almost 13,000 acres in Sabinal Texas, they offer some of South Texas' best "fair chase" hunting for whitetail deer at some of the most affordable prices found anywhere! Best of all, there are NO TROPHY FEES for any hunting. All hunts include unlimited hog hunting and lodging in one of our cabins- at no additional charge! Our ranch is one of Texas' largest bow hunt ONLY ranches. Hunters can choose heavily wooded (pecan, oak, etc.) creek and river bottoms, including 2 miles of the Sabinal River and Ranchero Creek, mesquite and pear cactus flats as well as high Guajillo hills, and everything in between!

As fully working ranch, there's an abundance of water sources, including the Sabinal River, numerous tanks and troughs, and a number of wet & semi-wet creeks. The ranch is covered with typical South Texas high-protein shrubs and food sources that encourage horn growth and ultimately produce the kind of trophy whitetail bucks for which this area is famous. Our hunters have harvested numerous 150 and 160-class Pope & Young bucks over the past 15 years. The ranch record currently stands at 168 1/8" P&Y. Approximately 50 miles of ranch roads are grained daily, all year long, and there are over 50 deer feeders (running year-round) on the ranch.

The focus is on DIY hunting, with self-guided and semi-guided options available. There are no preset stands here—hunters have the freedom to set up anywhere within their assigned pasture, as long as they follow ranch rules.

Ava and her crew are always happy to point you toward areas with recent game activity, especially if you can’t scout in advance. With years of local knowledge and a genuine passion for the hunt, they’re here to help you make the most of your time in the field.
