LAND: Quintessential Divide ranch simply best describes this property. With its gently sloping hills, shin oak/live oak mottes and cedar interspersed, the ranch tastefully mixes open savannah with moderately heavy cover providing excellent habitat for game as well as adequate range for livestock. The ranch has been under a clearing program since 2003 with much cedar being selectively removed and some remaining as a buffer along the highway and exterior fencelines, as well as for scattered cover throughout the ranch. The slopes drain toward a main draw that bisects the ranch from north to south, with an additional drainage feeding in from a side draw on the west side.

Soils consist largely of the Tarrant-Eckrant Association, a stony clay soil typically found on plains region of the Edwards Plateau, producing a variety of native grasses, woody plants, and sought-after forbs. The ranch is able to support a variety of game, with a quality whitetail deer population including bucks found from the 130s to the 150s B&C, and larger on occasion. Axis and blackbuck antelope are found in sustainable, yet not over burdening numbers, with axis bucks nearing the 35 mark and blackbuck of trophy caliber as well. Turkey, dove, songbirds, and varmints also abound, and the range is rated good for livestock, with stocking rates typically around 30 acres/animal unit.

IMPROVEMENTS: A good road system and 8 perimeter fence on three sides (Seller will share in construction of south boundary high fence) round out the list, offering a new owner a first rate base infrastructure while retaining the ability to choose location and design for the lodge of their taste.

FINANCIAL/TITLE: $2,387/ac, cash to Seller, who will provide current survey and basic title insurance at closing. Seller will convey all owned minerals, and the ranch is subject to sensible restrictions, including no division into tracts less than 400 acres in size. There is electricity approximately 2000 from SW corner, as well as a phone line running along the western boundary. Buyer will be responsible for new entrance along US 83 at location of their choice. The ranch is located in the Divide ISD, and the 2010 ag-rate taxes are estimated to be $550.
