WILDCAT MOUNTAIN RANCH

COKE COUNTY, TEXAS 5033 ACRES

Stunningly beautiful vistas are primary features of the award winning, high fenced, Wildcat Mountain Ranch. The dominant features of the landscape are the escarpment running east and west for two miles along its southern boundary and Lone Mountain in the central/western portion of the property. The escarpment has four major outcroppings offering 180° plus views to the north, east and west, including several of views entire ranch. From the front gate to the highest point on the escarpment, the rise in elevation is over 600 feet. Replicating this ranch, except for the views and elevation, would require substantial resources and many years of constant effort. WILDLIFE As a result of the aggressive game management and soil conservation practices, this is one of the finest hunting ranches in the state. The hunting program on the ranch has been designed and monitored by a Resource Conservation Game Biologist and the TP&W since 1997. Paid hunts with guides have been offered on a limited basis for several years for deer, turkey, quail, dove, javelina, hogs and varmints. Success on these hunts has been excellent with several deer grossing above 160BC and limits on turkey, quail and dove. There is an impressive number of hunting blinds on the property totaling 43. There are 34 insulated blinds, 9 are fiberglass ground blinds, and 28 are on solar panel charged corn feeders distributing non-toxic corn. The remainder are on 5 fenced food plots or movement areas. In addition to a bulk feed storage and delivery system, there are 16 protein feeders. A major benefit to wildlife management has been the ranch’s many years of participation in the TP&W youth hunting program. Six area lakes with excellent fishing and recreation are within a 45 minute drive of the ranch. A local TP&W biologist has indicated a strong interest in a transplant program of mule deer to this ranch. WATER There are six stock tanks and two stocked lakes that cover 5 acres and 3 acres, respectfully, when full. The NRCS has identified a location for an additional lake that could cover 30 acres. A truly unique feature regarding water is the 10 miles of underground pipes connecting 3 water wells that provide water on 80% of the ranch. Two additional wells are powered by windmills and another 3 are on submersible pumps. The water line from Lake Spence to San Angelo runs north and south for 4-1/2 miles through the property. Although it has not been used for several years, water taps are available in the event it flows in the future. The line is connected to two 440,000 gallon storage tanks that are on the property. IMPROVEMENTS Twenty-six miles of high tensile 8 foot high game fence marks the boundary of the ranch. New cross-fences of approximately 14 miles divide the ranch into 11 main pastures and 3 traps. Throughout the past 13 years, a concentrated program of clearing and burning has substantially reduced the cedar over approximately 2000 acres. Native grasses and grass favored by quail and other wildlife have been planted on over 300 acres. A 6000+ foot air-conditioned hunting lodge sits part way up the escarpment and can accommodate up to 30 hunters. The lodge is equipped with a large complete kitchen, walk-in gun safe, pool table, several satellite TV’s, bar, a fireplace, a 1500sf covered patio, as well as many other amenities. A large fire pit with remarkable views including Spence Reservoir is just out the front door. The covered carport can accommodate 10 vehicles with an additional 3-car enclosed garage. In addition to a large workshop, there is a separate covered game processing area that includes a walk-in cooler and a flash freezer. A new 60’X90’ barn is under construction with 5 5’X10’ dog kennels. The existing barn is located adjacent to the new barn and includes 5 large 20’X50’ horse stalls with 20’X20’ enclosures that can accommodate up to 10 horses and a 20’X20’ tack room. Also on the property is a 20’X30’ hay barn. Working pens are excellent. The ranch includes a Peter Blakeley designed 5-stand sporting clay facility with six remote controlled commercial level clay throwers, which can be converted to quail flush targets, and a T.D. Smith designed rifle range with targets from 50 to 400 yards. Roads are excellent to good with a caliche pit on the property for road base. The potential for substantial depreciation may be available from this property.
