The Choctaw Ridge Ranch River Creek Land Sales, LLC
(940) 552-0811 |
[email protected] Property Description This broad ranch consists of four large sections, plus a river bottom of exceptional beauty. From mesquite thickets and ravines to towering hardwoods and open pastures, the Choctaw Ridge Ranch is as diverse as it is impressive. The ranch is very private and is surrounded on its north and west sides by a 10,000 acre cattle ranch and on its east by a 1,500 acre ranch. The property has no public road frontage; you enter the ranch on its north end, from a deeded easement coming through the 10,000 acre ranch. This ensures no road hunters or poachers will disturb your game.

The hunting on the Choctaw Ridge is outstanding, with some of the largest whitetails in the tri-county area coming out of this region. A non-typical buck scoring 173 was shot on it in 2005. Several 140-150 range deer have been taken as well. The property has been strictly managed by the current owner, with only four year olds and up being harvested. Only 3-4 bucks per year are taken off of the ranch. While whitetails are predominant, mule deer are slowly migrating east along the Pease River valley in Hardeman County, and there is a declared mule deer season here too. Other wildlife on the ranch includes turkey, duck, geese, quail, dove, hog, bobcat, and coyote. Lots of roosting areas, plum thickets, and dense brush provide ample cover for the ranch's wildlife. www.RiverCreekLandSales.com

There's lots of water on the Choctaw Ridge Ranch. Its south border meanders along the Pease River, a live water stream that travels for approximately 54 miles through five counties in northwest Texas. The Pease carries channel catfish and is also a flyway for the migrating ducks and geese. Approximately five water tanks are scattered throughout the ranch, and there is a water well on the north border too. The landscape has lots of ravines and draws in the top two sections, which provide the potential to form some very large lakes (10-100 acres). There are creek washes all throughout the ranch that carry water down to the Pease River when it rains; ponds can be built off of virtually any of these washes as well. There is also a deep slew in the southeast region of the ranch. An assortment of trees and grasses fill the property. On the north end is a 110 acre cultivated field, which is currently sewn in winter wheat. This field winds around the ravines and has lots of nooks and pockets, where alternate food plot systems could be established. At the south end of the field is a large bluff (hence the name "Choctaw Ridge Ranch"), which carries your eyes past the main central pasture to the colorful river bottom below. The central pasture consists of stubby mesquite brush and bluestem clumps. The ranch's cross fences intersect here, and there is a trap in place for gathering cattle. The central pasture blends out to the west, east, and south into dense thickets of mature mesquite and hackberry trees. This section of the ranch creates excellent traveling and bedding areas for whitetails, and it was here that the 173 pt. buck was taken. A little further south of this thick pasture, the ranch opens up to a lush river bottom, where bluestem and gamma grasses cover the ground and tall cottonwoods reach above the horizon. Wild plums are consistent throughout this whole area and not only provide great bedding areas, but are also a supplimental source of protein for the ranch's wildlife. There are a few areas along the river where small food plots have been carved out as well. Along the river, large chinaberry motts have grown into small forests and are ideal for tree stands and bowhunting. The Choctaw Ridge Ranch is a hidden jewel in this area and has been under the same ownership for over ten years. It has been approved by Tecomate® Properties to be advertised as a Featured Property, which further testifies to its quality. (See Tecomate's website of the same name for more details.)
