Whitetail Hunts
Texas Trophy Whitetail Deer Hunting
The Shipp Ranch is located 7 miles south of Lometa Texas in Lampasas County. The Texas Trophy Whitetail Deer Hunting Ranch is still part of several thousand acres of a Texas Cattle Ranch where farming, ranching and hunting is our life. We game fenced the main headquarters (900acers) of the ranch in 1991. We have been managing the ranch for Texas Whitetail Deer Hunting prior to that, starting in 1984. The TX Trophy Whitetail Deer Hunting Ranch is covered in Live Oak, Post Oak, Cedar,and Mesquite. The terrain is rolling hills with several fields planted in crops for Whitetail Deer. There is an intensive management program on a year round basis. The buck to doe ratio is 1:1. Due to a limited amount of bucks harvested each year and a large amount of repeat hunters, hunts should be booked in advance. Three days should be planned for all hunts, and if extra days are needed it can be arranged. By the nature of hunting, kills of course, can not be guaranteed, yet 100% opportunity is guaranteed. All Texas Whitetail Deer Hunts are guided 1-1 or 1-2. Lodging and meals are furnished. Hunting is done from blinds, walking to areas, and rattling at places where big bucks are known to roam. The Bucks on this Texas Hunting Ranch are Not Typical of the Texas Hill Country. There has been many 200 pound field dressed Bucks taken threw the years. Threw years of managing we now have some bucks that are scoring over 200 BC. If you looking for a Good Place to hunt Texas Whitetail Deer, give us a call. We will give a 100% to get you what your looking for!Hunters must have a valid Texas Hunting License (Available upon arrival).
