Welcome to Millar Ranch, A Quality Hunt Experience - 1000 private acres of rolling hills, of 100-year live oak trees, oak motts, open pasture, an abundance of mesquite underbrush, algerita and cactus plants in the center of Texas. Millar Ranch is prime trophy hunt land- cover and home to the finest in exotics, plentiful Rio Grande turkey, whitetail deer and more. It has been featured in Bowhunting.net and on DiskNet TV Men's Channel programming. The ranch is located on the famed Edwards Plateau, a short drive east of San Angelo.  
 
Owner Frank Millar knows the elements and importance of a quality hunt experience. Years of hands-on knowledge, stemming from being a sportsman and entrepreneurial business experience have positioned him to deliver extreme customer satisfaction to guests in their hunt experience at Millar Ranch.

Experience the Difference - Millar Ranch hunts are individually created to suit your needs. The environment is as challenging as the game is wary, yet our hunter's success rate is 100%. The ranch is a privately owned and operated hunting preserve with hunt pressure and harvest carefully controlled. All bow hunts are professionally guided spot and stalk, safari, from a ground blind, or rattling- whatever presents the best personal challenge and hunting experience for you. In the words of Roy Keefer, noted bow hunter and writer, "...what a hunt we had at the Millar Ranch... one of the most enjoyable hunting experiences of my life".

Your Trophy Waits - Hunt year-round for outstanding exotics and enjoy seasonal hunts for natives. The thrill of harvesting a quality Axis, a Blackbuck Antelope, Scimitar Horn Oryx, Sika-DyBowski, Fallow Deer, Black Hawaiian, Mouflon, Corsican/Barbadoe or Corsican Sheep, or Texas Dall Sheep. We will also arrange for other exotics not presently on the ranch for your personal hunt, with sufficient advance notice. Our Rio Grande Gobbler hunts are legendary and will far exceed your expectations. Millar Ranch has managed trophy Whitetail Deer.

Not Just for Hunters - Millar Ranch has photo safaris and lay back and relax opportunities for non-hunters. You may even catch a shot of a rare Barasingha, seldom seen elsewhere. Excellent food and beverages are custom selected to your liking, and then there are those West Texas sunsets. There's no prettier way to end the day. Often non-hunting wives will accompany their hunter into a blind to shoot game photos. Future plans call for organized canoe and kayak adventures.

• Side-trips can be taken to the town of Eden, which features Concho Springs Golf Course. Eden is 18.5 miles east-northeast of the geodetic center of Texas and is known as "the garden of Texas" by locals.
• A bit further away, yet still close, is historic Paint Rock, a town named for the extensive Native American pictographs found on the bluffs of the Concho River. Tours are available. Crafts shops can also be found at Paint Rock.
• The Presidio de San Saba, a Spanish fort on the 18th century Texas frontier, ranking in importance with the Alamo, can be visited near Menard. A scientific excavation of artifacts and the remaining structure is currently in progress.

Getting There - Millar Ranch, near Eden, TX, is a 45-minute drive from San Angelo. San Angelo is conveniently served by major airlines.

We are pleased to provide hunting enthusiast the opportunity to enjoy the 10 Mile Ranch hunting experience.  Located in the scenic hills of West Central Texas, 10 Mile Ranch offers a unique hunting experience for Whitetail Deer, Turkey and Bobwhite Quail. 
   Through our aggressive Deer Management Practices we have seen a dramatic increase in Whitetail antler and body size.  We have also removed all livestock from our managed property, which has resulted in substantial increase in the number of Whitetail Deer, Turkey and Quail we have been observing.
   Because it's our first year to offer these exclusive hunts, we are offering them lower than current market prices.

The Knaus Ranch is located on the top ridge of a beautiful cedar and Spanish oak covered mountain top range known as the Callahan Divide, about 13 miles Southwest of Abilene, Texas and some 150 miles west of Fort Worth,  and about 8 miles south of Interstate 20. 

Abilene is a city of about 115,000 people and is located some 12 miles east of the ranch. The deer and turkey hunting area of the ranch is approximately 2000 acres  The ranch's fences are all low fences (as opposed to 9' high game fences). All of our hunts are considered fair chase hunting.

 

We have a few real big trophy bucks. We have lots of regular size bucks up to 12 points. Some of these bucks will gross out about 235lbs. And large flocks of Rio Grande Turkeys. It seems as if there are more Rio Grande Turkeys and they are bigger every year. Of course, it could be that we feed all of the animals year round with heavy feeding and food plots in the spring.

 

For folks that use GPS, our location is N32 18.425 W099 53.707 for the center point of the compound. A helicopter pad is available. The elevation of the pad is 2383' above sea level. (Check in with a cell phone for exact landing instructions and pad location.) Cell phone number is 325 665 9444. The helicopter pad is just West of the bunk house about 200 Feet, but, within our compound.

 

 The view from our camp is one of the most superb views of  West Texas.  Clear and clean Texas air, a beautiful  mountain view, and beautiful country side. In late October and early November, the Oak  leaves change to a bright red color with a few bright yellow leaves to spice it up.  Spring time brings in all of the trees, flowers, grass, and food plots turning to deep green colors and the wild flowers at their most beautiful setting preparing for a color parade season before the summer heat arrives. You can take a look at it live by clicking on the blue 'here' below. This a view on a web cam looking out the main door toward the east. And, if you turn up the volume, you can hear the wind chimes if there is any breeze at all.

 

We have no traffic, only  the moan of a distant freight train, and the mating whistle of a bob-white quail makes the ranch not only fun, but very restful and relaxing. Then too, we have our local resident turkeys calling even here at the main compound. We don't have many people to just 'Drop By'. Being off the main road some 3 miles this far out; a passer-by must be coming to see us, or that traveler is just lost.

 

Our camp is in a  remote area (on the very top of a mountain (The Callahanridge) and about 3 miles to the nearest road) however, the road to the highway is plenty good for arriving or departing is nearly all kinds of weather. We do have the best of both worlds with electricity, satellite and local TV, DSL for broad band computer contact. Central air and plenty of wonderful deep well water, and one of the most complete cooking facilities around this area (gas stoves, smokers, wood steak grills, micro ovens, etc, etc.)

 

The old Overland Stage Coach ruts are still visible crossing the ranch along with a few Indian arrowheads scattered here and there especially around the banks of the creeks, and some WWII shells and casings left over when the ranch was a part of Camp Barkley, a US Army facility during the second  world war.  The ranch's front gate opens to an 1800's cattle trail known as the Butterfield Trail. Now days that old trail is called 'The Butterfield Highway or even some folks call it Texas Highway 277 to San Angelo, Texas. There is a lot of history both on and off the ranch here.

 

The ranch is located in the Heart of Texas, just west of Waco. The 2004-2005 hunting season was the first year that the ranch has ever been offered to the public - it has been hunted only by our company personnel.

We are scientific breeders which helps to keep good genetics in our deer herd.

Pearl Ranch

1500 acres of high-fenced land. This area of Central Texas features rolling hills, heavily wooded areas with a combination of live oak, mesquite and cedar. We have recently constructed a new bass lake to accompany our catfish lake. We also have a shooting clay tower that is available to all hunters. If you kill out before your hunt trip is over, Mike Hydrick is an avid bass fisherman and would be happy to carry you to the local Belton Lake Reservoir for a day of fishing.

The Delozier Ranch is located in the rocky hills of some of West Texas' best whitetail country. Cactus filled mesquite brush, thick draws with towering live oak trees make up the perfect habitat for huge whitetail bucks. Our whitetail reach their full potential by allowing them to grow to maturity, reaching ages of 6.5 to 7.5 years old. Each year top end bucks may attain the magical 170 B&C mark and some even higher.

Great effort is spent managing the doe population and the harvesting of mature bucks that don't meet the standards set for our trophy bucks. Each year our surveys and field studies help determine how many hunts we will have the following season. Lots of natural water via windmills and several ponds, 60 acres of planted fields and high protein feed fed year around help insure the overall health of the deer herd.

Aoudad sheep, Iranian Red Sheep and Nubian Ibex can be found throughout the hills and bluffs of this rocky terrain. Each season spectacular trophies of each species are taken. Rio Grande turkeys abound here in the spring and make for one of our most popular hunts. State of the art skinning and game care facilities, a walk-in cooler, western ranch-style lodging and nights spent around the open fire pit are just a few of the amenities hunters can expect during their stay at the ranch.

If lots of sunshine, wonderfully prepared home cooked meals and the whitetail buck of your dreams sounds like fun, we'll see ya in West Texas.
