I have finally recuperated from the Jan 2024 Whitetail Deer season on the ranch in MX. We managed to fill all 20 tags with 9 Trophy Bucks and 11 Management Bucks.
I did a terrible job of recording our success by taking photos of all our deer, but I was able to salvage this video from one of my cameras of an 8 pointer. He was a Management Buck this year but may be a Trophy Buck next year (TBD). For sure, he will be very high on my target list either way and I hope one of my hunters gets to hang him on their wall.
We will begin offering predator hunts on the ranch in MX beginning next February, immediately after deer season. We have good populations of Coyotes, Bobcats and Javelinas and a few hogs.
3 full days, $1,500 includes everything except tags for any animals you want to bring home with you.
I just wanted to let everyone know that we are in the process of making more Coyotes.

By the time rut rolls around in January, this guy should really be something.
Bobcat on West end of ranch.
I need to learn how to hunt these critters.
Weekend Dove hunt in Mexico near Laredo, TX. $1,800 includes everything except ammo. NO LIMIT!
Opening weekend is still available (August 11 - 14) and we are loaded with doves NOW. Some weekends in September also available.
I apologize for the video, I am not good at controlling wind noise but this video shows birds now landing on the milo heads and feeding. The birds you see are all within 100ft of me. Others farther out were not bothered by my presence so they are hard to see.

The buck in this video is much more developed that anything I expected to see.
In addition to our milo planting, we have relocated 8 deer feeders to the area near the lodge to begin attracting doves from neighboring ranches and concentrate them near the lodge before season begins.
This one is only 150 yds from the lodge and is becoming quite popular. These feeders are slinging milo and set for 7:00AM and 5:00PM. Notice that this video was shot at about 1:30PM so you can imagine what the numbers look like early morning and late afternoon.
Season opens 6 weeks from today.. Call me to book your spot now.

Looks like these two are trying to work off a little bit of their Christmas Dinner.
This guy is moving in on that feeder like he is hungry. Don't know why, he has plenty to eat in any direction.
These guys are just playing. But, if we can get a good stretch of cooler weather...they just might kick it up a notch.
This is our best buck so far on Feeder #5.
This is feeder #1 and my first look at this buck. The 10 pointer seems to be showing him a great deal of respect and the 8 pointer isn't even wanting to come inside the feeder fence.
Ever wondered how far a Javelina could open its mouth? Check out the last one in this threesome. (Feeder #15)
This is a very nice 8 pointer and is considered a Management Buck.
On our ranch, 8 pointers or less are Management Bucks. Management hunts are $2,500 with 3 full days of hunting, lodging, meals, tag, use of our rifle/ammo and pickup / drop-off at the airport in Laredo, TX. The ranch is on the MX side approximately a one hour drive from the airport. We still have 3 spots available to be taken any time between January 18 - 31, 2023.
Rut hunts are $4,700 with 5 full days of hunting and you may harvest a deer of any size. Rut is the first 2 weeks in January and is typically when we see our largest deer. We still have 2 open spots in the 2nd week Jan 10 - 16, 2023.
An 'Almost Perfect' 10pt. He has a little knot on his right side G3. Still, a nice deer. (Feeder #4)
