Just a few boys we have managed to get decent pictures of. We have quite a few larger mature bucks that haven’t been accounted for this year much less been able to get a picture of. The two bucks that are unavailable we will be holding on to due to their young age and exceptional genetics. They will likely be available next year if not the year after.

Most the velvet has dropped and the boys are getting sassy. Some are already fighting. Won’t be long and November will be here!

2.0 popped his head out last night revealing a drop tine and a sticker this year. This boy is WIDE. Makes your heart skip a beat when you first lay eyes on him. He is getting up there in age so this is his year! ❤️

These are the days I have left for management bucks/meat hunts. Prices will range from 300 (spike/meat)- 2000 (much larger cull buck). You’re guaranteed an opportunity at a buck in the range you’re looking for or your money back. These are not our big 8s or 10pt+. This is a good opportunity to get someone’s first buck if they never have before and/or stock your freezer. Come join us at Durst Ranch and make some amazing memories.

We have some beautiful boys coming along as we start getting our cameras going. The trail cams have failed us this year and we will be getting new ones next. Booking is open with limited availability. NO DOE HUNTS AVAILABLE. Can’t wait to see what else is out there. You are guaranteed to get a shot at the type of buck you are after or your money back. Can’t wait to see everyone and get hands on with some of these big boys.

I’ve had some questions that I would like to answer for everyone. As of this time, we are located in an area where we are not in much risk with the screw worm outbreak that has happened in west and south Texas. Anything is possible in the future years to come.

In managing our deer and keeping them as happy and healthy as possible we have decided against doe hunting this year. Our reasoning behind this is to hopefully prevent our bucks from fighting over specific does as much during rut. We wish all of our doe hunters a happy season and will likely be able to take a small few out for meat hunts on spikes. If we can not accommodate you this year, we can’t wait to see you again next. For our regulars that end up hunting in the area, feel free to give us a call and maybe we can have lunch in town while you are here. We love hearing about your adventures and seeing your pictures.

With this being said, our entire season will be for buck hunting instead of the first month being primarily doe.
Youth only- Oct. 30th- Nov. 1st
Large 8s and management if available- Nov. 7th-15th
Buck of choice- Nov. 16th- Jan 3rd
First come, first served

As a reminder our blinds comfortably hold the guide and 2 hunters. All hunts are guided, no exceptions. Booking will begin September 1st.

I had two hunters pass on this buck last year. We scored him from 2 years ago earlier today at 162 being the biggest buck to walk this ranch that we know of. I can’t wait to get back to the house and score last years set. There is a good possibility he was the highest scoring buck on the property last year as well even if his tines lost length. His mass is absolutely beautiful. Here’s half of High and Tight for you! 100% native white tail. ❤️🦌❤️

Hunting season is over, the ranch is at peace, so we are back to enjoying our sunsets from the back yard. Lots of work to do still before next year and typical maintenance, but we can’t imagine a better life. Can’t wait to see you all again next season.

Merry Christmas from Durst Ranch! This morning we dropped our final management buck that we had been after. We are happy to be closing the season on such a wonderful note. Many beautiful boys were laid to rest this year and many more families with stocked freezers. Thank you all for coming and hunting with us, and to those of you that have inquired about next year. We appreciate every one of you.

Happy Birthday to this beautiful woman I get to call mom and our ranch owner! None of this would be possible without you...

Happy Birthday to this beautiful woman I get to call mom and our ranch owner! None of this would be possible without you You have brought huge smiles to families faces near and far. We appreciate everything you do for us, for the community, and for all these wonderful people we call our hunters!
Congratulations on Big Boy, a buck that escaped many hunters this year only getting brief glances of him. He is just as one of a kind as you are. ❤️ Love you to the moon and back!
