Property Summary:

This is truly a combination ranch with the ability run cattle and hunt trophy whitetails among other animals. The ranch is broken up into 3 main pastures. The NW portion of the ranch has been used as a hay meadow and will produce approximately 300 round bales. Currently the seller is running about 35 momma cows but said it can handle closer to 60. At one time the seller ran 60 units but has scaled back due to the time constraints of a larger herd. Located in the NE portion of the property is the home, shop, and storage shed. Several acres around the improvements are fenced to keep the cattle out.

One word comes to mind when describing this Oklahoma ranch for sale and that word is meticulous. From boundary to boundary the owner has paid extremely close attention to the details on this property. Lets start with the wildlife plan which has consisted of managing the land and the deer in a way that has proven to increase the quality of the deer and providing better grass for the cattle. Oak Ridge Ranch has an implemented burn plan meaning that over a period of 5-6 years the entire property will be burned. Burns are a natural way to unlock the ability for land to more abundantly produce desired plant life that is beneficial not only to deer and wildlife but also for cattle. Burns are also effective in managing unwanted species like red cedar. Overall, burning is a phenomenal way to manage the land. Great planning and effort go into initially preparing a property for burning and in this case the perimeter fences have been cleared of all timber far enough back that a disc can be run between the fence and the timber. This is a standard practice for creating a fire break. Internal trails used to navigate the ranch are also used as boundaries for the blocks being burned which allows for the rotation of smaller parcels in the burn plan.

Numerous food plots are present and range from small clearings in the timber to the largest plot of over 20 acres positioned in the heart of the property. This large plot has been irregularly shaped to create additional edge giving cautious whitetails more security in their surroundings as they venture into the wide open. The seller has become an absolute student of this property working diligently to bring the pH levels in the food plots to optimum growing levels, and it shows. During the fall hunting season cattle are kept on the norther more open portion of the property. In the early spring the cattle are moved into the hunting area and allowed to graze down the food plots. The seller has been on a very intentional deer management plan and this property has been voluntarily hunted bow only with the exception of a few does taken by rifle. If an area has genetics and nutrition then age is the next big contributing factor to having trophy class animals. Deer must be allowed to mature and through extensive camera surveys the proof of that practice on this ranch is evident. There are approximately 40 tree stands scattered throughout the property for hunting every possible wind condition. The seller told me a story of how on 3 consecutive days he walked out the deer trails after a big snow storm to gain more knowledge of their travel patterns. This allowed him to place tree stands in the most optimum crossings and pinch points. Hopefully by now you understand that this place has been extremely well taken care of with much thought and intention placed upon every detail.
