Additional Information

Overview:

Hunt whitetail deer with us at the 328 acre Berniard Ranch in the picturesque Texas Hill Country and we'll use our 30+ years of experience to help make your visit enjoyable and successful. The ranch is owned by Lewis and Dorothy Berniard, has been in the family since 1985, is a working cattle ranch, and has been high fenced since early 2004. The ranch has been intensely managed for whitetail deer for the entire time we have owned it, resulting in an excellent deer herd even prior to high fencing. We have had a supplemental protein feeding program since 2001.

We began offering guided hunts for whitetail deer in 2005, with trophies harvested that have grossed over 150 B&C…….our herd is improving every year!

We offer both firearms and archery hunting.

We are not professional outfitters….…but we have done a lot of hunting and have poured many hours of hard work through the years into improving the hunting on the ranch, especially since the protein feeding program began and the high fence was built. You don’t have to have a large ranch to have large deer if you feed them right, allow them to age, and stick to a well thought out harvest plan approved by the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department.

The quality of our deer herd and our hunting knowledge consistently provide our hunters with a memorable experience…..and best of all we meet a lot of great folks!

Pricing Information

Pricing Estimate: $200

Contract Length: Any

Pricing Details:

Guide Fee

Our daily guide fee is $200. This fee is subtracted from the price of any deer harvested if it is harvested during the regular hunt time. If no deer is harvested the guide fee applies. All hunts require a deposit as shown under “Pricing Categories”.  Deposits are refundable only if another hunter can be booked during the same hunting season for the same class of deer.

Pricing Categories

We price our whitetails based on what we think their gross Boone and Crockett score will be. We harvest the following classes of deer on the ranch (see “Our Deer Herd”):

  • Trophy Bucks – usually 6 ½ years old or older grossing 140 or higher B&C……four day hunt…..$1000 deposit

  • Premium Bucks  – generally 5 ½ -6 ½ years old grossing 130-139 B&C…..three day hunt……$750 deposit

  • Management Bucks – generally 3 ½ - 4 ½ years old grossing up to 129 B&C…. two day hunt……$300 deposit

  • Sub-management Bucks – usually bucks with inferior antlers because of injury or other factors

Pricing Methods

Through the years we have found no method of pricing that is judged fair by all hunters. Some prefer a fixed price and others only want to pay for the exact quality animal they harvest. So prior to your hunt we’ll let you decide how you want your deer priced.

The deer, at the hunter’s discretion, can be priced in either of two ways:

  • Fixed Price…..the guide indicates a fixed price for the animal under consideration (he bases this on his perception of the gross B&C score and the cost table shown below)

  • Variable Price……the deer is measured after harvest and the price set based on the table below.

On average, the two methods will be essentially the same. On any given deer they can differ…by possibly as much as 5- 10 inches (either way). We are very good at estimating what a deer will score and measuring a harvested deer for gross B&C score. But accuracy in judging a live deer is based on how long you see the deer, how many times you’ve seen him, and how he looks in relation to other deer around him. Thus, a lone deer, seen briefly, for the first time is a challenge for even experienced scorers.
