The BNC Ranch goals are to maximize the genetic quality of the resident whitetail bucks. Not all bucks are available for harvest. You should see many deer on each hunt. There might be bucks that are excellent quality, but we have elected to protect them as breeding bucks and to allow them another year or two for maximum antler development. This will enhance future hunts. Your guide will inform you as to which deer are protected from hunting, based on our ranch policy. All of the bucks pictured on the web site border are from the 2003 deer season. There are other mature bucks available for hunting that meet our criteria of a trophy buck, but were camera shy and were seen only a couple of times. They did not stand long enough for a photo.
There are several management bucks available for hunting that will gross from 125 to 150 B&C.
The Special Hunt package includes all one and half year olds not meeting our quality criteria. They will generally be six points or less and score under 125 B&C.
Each hunter is required to obtain a valid Texas Hunting License through the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department. Call 800-792-1112 or www.tpwd.state.tx.us/.
If your birthday is after September 21, 1971 you must have proof of Hunter Safety Course in your possession as well as the required hunting license.
A hunting agreement and waiver will need to be executed (see contract button on home page).
One half the base fee is payable upon booking the other half is payable upon arriving. Success hunt fees are payable upon measurement of B&C scoring or estimate.
No alcohol will be provided by your hosts. After completion of your hunt and all firearms have been put away, moderate alcohol may be consumed on the premises during the evening wind down and meal, for our Buck Hunt Packages only. No alcohol will be consumed on the premises prior to or during the hunt. No illegal drugs are allowed on the premises.
The 2005 picture gallery will be updated with 2005 pictures as they become available.
