Ags--

I posted this lease last year when we got on the lease. We had a great first year and could not be happier with the place. We lost some members though, and we need to fill three of our 11 total spots on the lease for this coming season. Can give more info by phone. Details and pics are are below. For more information, call or text me at 713.715.8188. The lease is not cheap, so spare me the smartass posts about the price.

The first set of pics are from this season. If the buck is still alive in the picture, he is still alive on the ranch. We let a bunch of really nice deer walk this season, including 4-5 over 160, and three that are well over 180".

The second set of pics is from the group that had the lease for about 15 years before us.

-6,212 acres
--Low fence
-MLDIII
-Jerry Allen is our biologist, and the ranch has been under a comprehensive management plan for over 15 years.
-- One trophy, one management, and does and culls by helicopter survey.
--11 total members (roughly 564 acres per member)
-- 17 twelve foot tower blinds in place. New feeders going up this month.
-- Community stands
--Great water throughout the ranch, with incredible dove, duck and quail hunting and turkeys on the eastern portion of the ranch. Some bass fishing.
-- Landing strip with airplane hanger close to camp.
-- Two fully furnished camphouses that sleep 8 people each.
-- Fireplace, pool table, walk-in cooler.
-- Liberal guest policies
-- Great owner. Ranch hand lives right next to camp. Almost no illegals.
-- $13,000 per spot, which includes all fees (corn, protein, electricity, insurance, etc).

We stay in those bunkhouses pictured in the flyer. On one of the walls, there are dated signatures from everyone who has shot a deer on the ranch going back to the 1940's. One of the signatures, though it has been removed and framed, is John Wayne's.

Outstanding. I killed my first deer on this ranch back in the eighties. Great memories. Remember driving onr of the willys jeeps with a floor button starter. Man this takes me back.

My Father used to have the grove care on this place. What a great South Texas Ranch.

Just curious, how are families handled? Would you be able to bring sons? Could they hunt with you as long as they used your tags/allotment?

JB, yes family members/guests can hunt in the member's tags. This is a family friendly lease and we encourage you to bring your kids and get them outdoors! Guests must be accompanied by the member but the guest privileges are very accommodating

Let's see if my wife will accept this as my Valentines gift or kick me out of the house.

Somehow I drifted over onto the rich Ags Outdoor forum......I don't know that I have spent $13,000 total in the last 20 years in lease fees. Wish I had that kind of money I would be there with you.

I bet some of you spend close to that amount when you add lease, lodging, corn, protein and don't even realize it.

So was the green eyed one in the OP a cull buck?

Looks like a nice place and I look forward to the guest invitation.

Not even half of that... but we don't have 170s. Maybe a high 140s or low 150 plus exotics.

About $8,667 annually for me - just for corn and protein

This is probably a great deal - I think Briscoe leases push $20k near Catarina

My moms step siblings own the ranch that borders the south side of diamond h. I don't think there is anywhere else in Texas where deer grow that big naturally.

For deer that big it seems like a pretty good deal.

Yikes. Nice deer, but that seems extremely pricey. We hunt on a 10,000-acre Briscoe lease in Webb Co. It's been managed for 20+ years and consistently produces 160-180" deer. We have 17 guys and we pay right at $8k each. Can't imagine tacking on another $5k per man. Pretty much the only difference is that we dont have turkey or camp houses. Everybody has their own cabin or trailer. Props to you trying to get more Ags on board. Good luck!
