Description: Here is an opportunity to own the original acreage of the famous El Tecomate Ranch, renowned for large South Texas whitetail deer as well as a variety of birds and other native wildlife. One of the mainstays of the South Texas Brush Country, El Tecomate has an undeniable romance with an outstanding native whitetail deer herd, as well as other wildlife. The ranch has been featured on numerous TV shows, including Realtree Outdoors, Monster Bucks, The Bucks of Tecomate, and more. History: Giant native bucks like 'Heart Attack' made the Tecomate Ranch renowned in the history of South Texas and a continued destination for Realtree's Monster Bucks and The Bucks of Tecomate TV shows for almost 20 years. The ranch has long been considered one of the best native deer ranches in Texas. This is due to the genetics of the herd, the mature native brush, and an intensive management system, which included the introduction of "lablab" in warm-season food plots. These plots revolutionized common management practices, resulting in some of the largest native deer harvested in Texas. The inherently rich, fine sandy loam soils of the property are ideal for growing summer and winter food plots and are known for retaining surface moisture for productivity. Arrowheads and other Native American artifacts have been found on the ranch, and there is also an old hand-dug well 25 feet deep by 6 feet across that serves as a unique historical feature. Improvements: This ranch includes a 5-bedroom, 2-bath cinderblock and stucco lodge, with an interior made of reclaimed wood that gives it a charming South Texas lodge feel. The house sleeps 12 and has central air conditioning, offering room for all to enjoy your own piece of South Texas. A high-volume water well, with water lines running throughout the ranch, provides water for stock tanks and other sites. High-speed internet is accessible at the ranch. Ranch Improvements: The ranch is fully game-fenced. The south pasture has four reversible fenced deer food plots. Water: The named creek, Remadura de Sandia Creek, traverses north to south through the middle of the ranch. City water supplied by El Sauz Water provides water to the lodge, and this line also extends to the Tecomate East Ranch for future use. A water well with an electric submersible pump next to the house supplies water to cattle troughs and ponds. Six lakes/ponds, varying in size from acre to 2 acres, combined with eight wildlife watering sites, are distributed throughout the ranch. All of these watering areas have water lines, allowing for constant water levels. These consistent water sources attract wildlife and contribute to the diversity seen on the ranch. One large water pila can be used for both livestock and wildlife. Wildlife: A combination of supplemental feeding, ample water, and premier mature South Texas brush species provides opportunities for this ranch to grow large native whitetail deer. El Tecomate Ranch has received national publicity for years due to its impressive herd. The ranch is entirely high-fenced, and all deer are native. The largest harvested buck scored 197 Boone & Crockett. Bird hunting includes dove, seasonal waterfowl, quail, and turkey. An abundance of beautiful native bird species also presents excellent birdwatching opportunities. Wildlife photographers visiting the ranch have found the diverse species of plants and animals well worth capturing. Vegetation/Terrain: These 2,158 acres are incredibly diverse, with seven distinct soil types that make the ranch feel unique at every turn. The property contains an exceptional selection of high-protein brush essential for supporting trophy deer. In addition, several tilled fields enhance the ranchs ability to attract wildlife.

The Santa Cruz Ranch is a unique place in South Texas and has its own unique history. Originally part of the 20,000 +/- acre W.I. Cameron Ranch dating back to the 1940s. The Cameron family sold this section 487 portion out to a partnership between J. Scoggins and C. Patton in approximately 2000. Mr. Patton eventually bought out the partnership and sold the ranch to Doctors Michael and David Adame. The brothers continued the land stewardship and whitetail management of Mr. Patton and Scoggins. This was achieved from TTT permits for additional whitetail infusion as well as careful and patient selective management of existing genetics. Santa Cruz Ranch was then purchased in 2017 by Mr. Eric J. Garza who later partnered with Rick Bailey. This ranch has only changed hands 4 times in almost 65 years, showing the prominence of the area and sparse availability of quality tracts in the area. The ranch is also located directly north of Santa Clara Ranch. This is a renowned photography ranch that is in a Valley Land Fund Conservation Easement that prohibits any hunting other than for the control of feral hogs. This is one of the few ranches that have been kept in its pristine native brush state. This area is known for its incredible fertile soils with wide varieties of native forage, as are many places that sit in the sought-after Media Luna region of south Texas. This is coveted area mainly held by larger landowners like McAllen family, Guerra, King (East), Yturria, etc. After acquiring the Santa Cruz Ranch Mr. Garza embarked on a mission to create one of the premier South Texas hunting destinations. After some minor upgrades the main 17,000 +/- SF lodge was built in 2020 to give the ranch a truly unique experience. The lodge has 10 bunk rooms, 14 baths, 2 private master suites and a private loft as well as its own 3 car garage. The interior finish out is unmatched to include the giant commercial kitchen built for the inner gourmet in you or pushing out a huge party dinner. All major interior furnishings, blinds, feeders, and custom-built top-drive will be conveyed. The private movie theatre and full gym round off the incredible interior layout. The build out also included an exotic cat enclosure to compliment the top-notch facility. Auxiliary facilities include a 100 x 40 covered parking area, 60 x 40 metal barn, 30 x 20 cleaning area, and soft release pens. To keep the feeders full there is an onsite silo and trailer hopper to stay with the new owner as well. We cannot leave out the outdoor kitchen/entertaining area. This little slice of heaven will definitely be a favorite spot for everyone, whether is for the weekend BBQ or just to relax and watch wildlife come to the acre clay lined stocked pond.

La Brisa has been managed intelligently for cattle, white-tail, and quail continuously since the 70’s. The front gate on FM 490 is 18 minutes to the new Starbucks and Chick-fil-A in Rio Grande City. 60 miles of boundary high fence and internal low fence break the ranch into several pastures to manage for wildlife and move and work cattle. Water is there. Multiple water wells and over 3 dozen drought proof troughs and ponds are supplied year round. The ranch has graded caliche main roads as well as miles and miles of ranch roads and quail lanes totaling well north of 100 miles in total. Headquarters sits 3 and a half miles in the middle of the ranch and has everything you need with 3 houses and 30,000 SF of barns and quality pipe working pens. This ranch isn’t flat, 170 feet of change from the brush country tops to the sandy bottoms and ag fields. Buffelgrass across the ranch holds quail well and keeps the cattle busy. The ag fields produce corn, milo, sunflowers, and sesame seeds. With the amount of tonnage of production of grain from 900 acres of ag fields, there is no reason to travel for wing shooting. One of the biggest opportunities with the ag fields is to potentially use this grain inside the ranch for further wildlife or cattle production if desired. Cattle and the ag fields keep La Brisa profitable from operations. White-tails, quail, turkey, and doves are at trophy levels. The ranch works today and is a good one. Come take a look. LOCATION La Brisa is located in Southeastern Starr county, only 16 minutes Northeast from the rapidly developing Rio Grande City, and 1 hour from McAllen. The location of this ranch will allow new owners the luxury of flying private into Rio Grande City Municipal (25 minutes away), or commercial from McAllen International (1 hour away).

The ability to go from losing track of time on a 7,000+ acre ranch chasing quail, whitetails, or cattle, and still being able to hop into town for an easy lunch is a nice perk. Rio Grande City provides access to other luxuries like the Texas favorite HEB PLUS!, a variety of restaurants, and several Farm and Ranch stores. TOPOGRAPHY, RANGELAND & HABITAT Positioned at the division between the highly productive pastures and crop ground of Eastern Starr County and the rolling brush covered hills of the western bounds of the county. The La Brisa is a rare property that boasts an ideally balanced split of both ecotypes thanks to the variety of soils and geology on the property. This diversity allows this ranch to be utilized as a true cattle, AG, and wildlife property all in one. The highly productive pastures, and nearly 900 acres of row crop acreage on the ranch benefit from well drained sandy loams including Romadero and McAllen soil complexes. The 3000+ acres of improved grass on the property consist primarily of buffelgrass allowing a rancher to run 220+ head comfortably without risk of overgrazing. Buffelgrass being managed and grazed appropriately provides great habitat for Bobwhite quail. In contrast the beautifully rolling uplands of the property are dominated by the more shallow Zapata soils which produce a variety of native brush species, key to the nutritional requirements of browsing species like whitetail, and other exotic species an owner may want to introduce to the ranch. These sections of the ranch offer beautiful high points to look over the land as well as dense concentrations of wildlife thanks to the ample amount of cover provided by the mixed brush. The entire ranch is grazed by cattle and rotated for management. WILDLIFE La Brisa Ranch has been managed intensely for wildlife interests for nearly 50 years. From strategized brush management to the implementation of 30+ watering stations on the property, grand ideas have not only been dreamed up, they have been acted upon. High fenced management of the Whitetail herd through the Texas MLDP program has been a constant at La Brisa, promoting opportunities at Trophy class deer annually. Herd data from annual helicopter surveys have also been kept for tracking data and recording purposes. In addition to the premier whitetail opportunities, the ranch also boasts healthy populations of quail and turkeys. Ample water resources and management of early successional habitat continues to foster a ranch where these highly coveted game birds can thrive and offer memory filled opportunities for a future owner and their friends and family. Bobwhite quail is the predominant species with coveys of Blue quails in the ranch’s high grounds. In addition to the high fenced opportunities on La Brisa, there are ~780 acres of low fence pasture on the property’s eastern boundary that has a great healthy and managed low fence population of white-tails. AGRICULTURE 900 acres of managed ag fields produce grain and cash income to the owner. The ranch comfortably supports 220 pairs of cattle year round.
