Terrain: This ranch is going to be level to gently sloping to some areas of draws but does have the diversity of mountainous topography in one area. Bluestem covers the rolling hills and with the thickets of oak trees throughout the ranch. The ranch has been very well managed so brush control now is completed so this is a turn key operation. Soil is going to be a clay sandy loam with rock shale on the hill tops. Big blue is thick throughout the ranch so it is in outstanding shape this year. The ranch foreman advises me that he can run about 160 animal units on this ranch day in and day out assuming not having any bad drought conditions.
Water: The ranch is well watered with two windmills being about 250 ft. deep and having about 100 foot of water. There is going to also be one water well to the house and serves as water for the house pasture. There are 3 surface tanks that have been out...
Water: The ranch is well watered with two windmills being about 250 ft. deep and having about 100 foot of water. There is going to also be one water well to the house and serves as water for the house pasture. There are 3 surface tanks that have been outstanding for the ranch even during the bad drought conditions and of course you have Falls creek running along the north boundary which usually is running on a yearly basis.
Recreation: I am an avid hunter and this ranch has a tremendous amount of white deer, turkey, dove, and some pigs. The oak tree thickets and the big bluestem provide excellent habitat for the wildlife.
Minerals: None to be conveyed but may be negotiable
Improvements: Fences are in excellent shape with six strand barbed wire and pipe corners and bracing. All of the ranch pastures are linked by gates and yes they will even cross the road so you can get your animals to each pasture with little trouble at all. There is one nice set of pipe working corrals that is centrally located for working cattle. There is a nice brick home with thee bedrooms and two baths with outstanding views. Next to the home is shop and horse stalls.
Comments: This is one of the cleanest and most turn key ranches that I have seen in a long time. Whether you are in the cattle business or hunter this ranch will fit the picture and best of all it is just located outside the metro-plex and just a few minutes south of Hico.
