General: This is a good ranch in a very good location. Zavala County is a steady producer of big deer because of the soils, brush, and water. The soil on the ranch is heavily sought after red sandy loam that historically has been a key to growing big bucks. There is a great variety of brush that biologist have identified as being #1 “ice cream” plants that deer love and really benefit from. The ranch is also pretty well watered.
Improvements: The ranch is entirely high fenced and about 80% of it is brand new tight lock. There are 2 very small and older cabins of which one needs remodeling and the owner seems to be about to start getting it into shape. There are a few deer blinds, corn feeders, and protein feeders all of which will convey.

Water: There are 2 Carrizo water wells supplying water to 2 brand new tanks. The wells are very strong with one of them producing about 110 gallons per minute and the other is believed to be at about 200 gallons per minute. They are about 1,800-2,400 feet deep with 10 horse power pumps. Wells like these are not cheap to drill and complete.

Wildlife: Lots of deer, quail, and hogs. This ranch has all the ingredients and potential to be an outstanding big deer ranch.
Minerals: The owner will convey 10% of the minerals and there is one producing oil well.
Price: $2,695 per acre.
Comments: This ranch has all of the components that are heavily sought after in a south Texas ranch; red sandy loam, perfect blend of high protein brush, great Carrizo water wells, tanks, high fence, and Minerals!
