Additional Information

Overview:

The JAG Ranch offers hunting for trophy and management whitetail deer three day hunts in South Texas in the heart of the Golden Triangle, in Dimmit County, Texas.  We located approximately 20 miles west of Cotulla, with a mile and a half of Nueces River frontage.  The ranch is 3,600 acres high-fenced and protein fed, year round.  We have approximately twelve blinds spaced out 1/2 to 3/4 of a mile form each other. The ranch has over 33 miles of roads on it.  It takes genetics, nutrition and age to grow trophy whitetail bucks.  The 3,600 acre JAG Ranch is located in the heart of the “Golden Triangle” on the banks of the Nueces River and we were blessed to have begun our program with excellent native genetics. These mature native bucks have pre-rut body weights in excess of 230 pounds and can produce racks exceeding 180 inches.  We have supplemented these native genetics with superior genetics from our intensive breeding program – deer that have an excellent cross of Northern, Midwestern and South Texas trophy genetics for improved antler growth and body weight.  Aldo Leopold, the father of modern wildlife management, wrote that the whitetail can be well-managed through the “same tools which have heretofore destroyed it – axe, cow, plow, fire and gun….management is their purposeful and continuing alignment.”  At the JAG Ranch, we continue to apply all of these techniques and have developed the perfect balance to maintain a healthy ecosystem and we believe the best possible whitetail habitat in the State of Texas.  We supplement this awesome whitetail habitat with year-round supplemental protein feeding that is available to the deer through numerous properly placed free-choice feeders.  At the JAG Ranch, we allow the bucks to reach their full potential by strictly prohibiting the harvest of any trophy quality buck before the age of five years old.  Packages for management buck hunts (up to 140 B&C) start at $3,000 and allow the hunter to also harvest a doe and unlimited hogs and coyotes.  Contact:  gilbert@gta-law.com or www.jagranch.com.
