Haskell County and the surrounding counties have some the highest populations of WILD Bobwhite Quail. The quail hunt is a half day hunt with dogs. The hunters have the opportunity to ride on ATV “Mules” or walk behind the dogs. We like to have a minimum of 3 hunters or parties of 3 if riding.

The Collinsworth County area has always been know for its outstanding quail hunting. The ranch is no exception and historically has been host to a large population of bobwhite quail. With the ranch ranging from open grass, heavy shinnery, sage and stands of oak, the birds are provided with ample natural cover. In addition feed is provided through the use of quail feeders during the difficult months in order to insure a viable breeding stock for the spring. Hunting is not done over any feeder as they are provided only to assist the birds on the ranch when times get tough.

As with the area in general, previous drought years severely impacted the quail population. The spring of 2007 however was ideal with abundant moisture, grass, and food stocks which has lead to a resurgence of the population. Census work done during the late fall of 2007 and early winter months of 2008 has shown our population of between 3 and 4 coveys per quarter section. All the coveys encountered contained 20 or more birds.

Several packages are offered for quail hunts and are available only during the months of January and February. Please call to reserve you spot for 2009.

Thank you for your interest in the S.M. Brown Game Bird Ranch, North Texas's premier wingshooting destination.

Since 1999, we've taken great pride in providing our guests with the most exciting, authentic wingshooting experience anywhere. Our 800-acre ranch is easy to reach, yet impossible to beat when it comes to natural beauty, comfort, and down-home, Texas hospitality.

For over thirty years Sindomar Ranch has provided hunters across the country with memorable outings. Located in Del Rio, Texas we maintain over 1400 acres of dense hill country terrain surrounded by a nine foot high game proof fence. That the success of a hunt is not solely measured by the quality of trophy harvested but also by the camaraderie and adventure which make the whole experience something to treasure in later years is something we understand. Home cooked traditional meals, fireside socializing, and new friendships are some of the features which make our hunters feel like they were treated special and not just as another customer to be catered to and then forgotten. However, let's not forget the trophies. Throughout the past ten years Sindomar Ranch has put considerable resources and commitment towards attaining a reputation for harvesting outstanding animals of a diverse variety of species. The fruits of this effort have resulted in many entries into the Thompson Temple Record Book of Exotics. Sindomar Ranch not only ranks amongst the top ranches for number of entries into the record book but has also registered a considerable number of top five caliber trophies throughout the years. We would like to invite you, your family, or your business to hunt with us and experience first-hand what other hunters have come to look forward to year after year.
