Wildlife and Hunting

The Rhode Ranch name carries weight in the hunting world. If you have hunted or spent time in South Texas, you have more than likely heard of the Rhode Ranch of McMullen County. The current owner purchased the property from the Lindholm Family in 2006 and implemented an intense whitetail management program that was overseen by whitetail biologist Daniel Senter.

Intensive breeding and tools such as the DMP Program have transformed this ranch into The Ultimate hunting destination of our region. Huge bucks roam the landscape sporting racks scoring sometimes in excess of 280! These are deer born on the ranch and carrying genetics based on the native deer herd the Rhode Ranch is famous for.

In 2007, a commercial hunting operation was implemented to generate income for the ranch. Big game hunts for whitetails, exotics and bison as well as wing shooting for dove, quail and Rio Grande turkey have been conducted with great success. Over the last few years, the owner has reduced the numbers of hunts being offered but the ranch is highly capable of generating substantial income from hunting and livestock activities. Whether the new owner wants to operate the Rhode Ranch as a commercial hunting operation or as a premier family recreational property- opportunity abounds.

The other species found here and that can be hunted year-round are American Bison, Addax, oryx, axis deer, Nilgai, Wildebeest and a few others. Sizeable, huntable populations of these exotics are here.
