March 26, 2010 - Winter and Spring Rains = Good News 
Hello everyone!

Looks like we are starting off on the right foot this year. The forbes are everywhere and the deer have so much to eat that their protein consumption is way down!

This is really good news for antler quality in the upcoming season.

Stay tuned for more updates as the year progresses!

September 06, 2009 - The New Season Is Almost Here!! 
I have been running our game cameras and have found several very interesting deer this year!!

The Photos section has a new album with several shots with my Canon Camera as well as a bunch of interesting game camera photos.

There are several options to view video of deer at the ranch from this year and last.

You can head over to WhitetailDomains.com and view the Webb County Camera #4 to view a live camera at one of the blinds on the ranch. Registered users at the site (Registration is Free) can manipulate the camera and chat in the camera chat rooms. My username is Encinal. If you see me say Hi.

You can also look at my videos on YouTube.


Here is an embed of the last video I have of one of our more impressive bucks from this year!





What do you think he will score? Can you guess how old he is? Comments or Questions about this deer or any of the deer you see in Photos section, in Videos or on the Live Cam? Ask in the Post a Comment section below this blog post!!

May 02, 2009 - Off Season Age/Score game! 
Welcome!!

I haven't posted since the end of the season. In the past there has been a long wait for posts between the end of February and late August because honestly it is hard to blog about happenings when the deer have one or two inch bulbs for antlers. This year I have decided to do something a little different to keep everyone occupied that occasionally views this page during the summer.

With the ability to now post comments on the blog (see the red "Post a Comment" below this post) I would like to get a little interaction going. There isn't a need to register and you don't have to create an account.

That being said, click on the video and tell me what the deer scores and how old he is!!

He's still out there...

Happy Scoring!

January 29, 2009 - So busy this year I didn't have much time to update... 
2008-2009

Well I updated the pictures pretty regularly in the Photos section at least...

Soo... here are a ton of pictures on the FRONT page.

We had MANY of our clients this year do very, very well. It worked out to be a great year even though the conditions weren't exactly the best for antler growth. There were 3 deer taken over 170, 7 deer between 160 and 170 and multiple deer in the 150's and management classes. That is amazing considering the amount of monsters still running around who were too young to take this year.

It's really looking like we are set up to have an amazing amount of great deer in 2009-2010 if only we could get a little rain!

Thanks to all of our hunters who made this season as fun for us as we hope it was for you!! Hope to see you next year!

Happy Hunting!

October 26, 2008 - The 2008-2009 Season is HERE! 

click images to enlarge

It's finally here! I have been scouting since July trying to make this one of our best hunting seasons yet. Last year is going to be hard to top but the quality of bucks looks to be very high overall. I have added scouting pictures from trailcams to the gallery and several photos that I have taken in the field. Please go check them out.

From Left to Right:

This is a young 12 pointer (11 with a forked G-3 that probably scores in the mid to high 60's. He made a pretty good jump this year. I like how the sun is glinting off of his horns here.

This next buck is a 6 year old who we are probably going to give one more year. He looks to be in the low 70's. He didn't put on much extra frame from last year, but did add a little bit of mass. Straight up typical 12's with no extras are VERY rare on this ranch and it is always a pleasure to see one.

Rick took this ~160" 10 point this weekend with brows nearly 8 inches long. These are some of the biggest G-1's we have ever seen on the ranch.

Bill Cross yet again hit another home run with this ~172" 10 pointer with a common base G-2 and G-3. Bob who is pictured as well guided both Rick and Bill to their deer. I'm still hearing about how much better he is at guiding than I am...

Congratulations Rick and Bill...


...and Bob

Happy Hunting!
