Description:
Ship Ranch is a 1,198 acre South Texas hunting and cattle ranch for sale in Webb County, Texas. This is an impressive hunting and ranching opportunity that awaits the discerning ranch buyer. The features and long-term quality management of this ranch make it a rare jewel. The property is also part of the historic Ship Ranch, owned and operated by the descendants of Colonel Evan Belisario Quiros for three generations.
Location:
Freer, Hebbronville, and Laredo, with its international airport, are all under 40 minutes away. In addition, the ranch is less than three hours from San Antonio, making it the perfect location for a weekend hunting getaway. It has over a mile of frontage along paved FM 2895.
Improvements:
The main headquarters features a 4BR/4BA 3,072 sq/ft ranch-style home, which was completely renovated in 2014. The home is very well insulated and includes an impressive trophy/game room, 2 large fireplaces, a safe room, and a whole house R/O system. Secondly, there is a newly constructed 2BR/2BA 1,800 sq/ft foremans house.

A new 2,400 ft deep electric water well in the Carrizo aquifer supplies the improvements on the ranch.

Landscape & Use:
This property represents the brush country of South Texas at its best, with a diverse mix of mature brush, trees, and grasslands, creating an excellent wildlife and livestock habitat. The pleasant rolling topography provides hilltop views of the surrounding area and escarpment. Ranching and hunting opportunities abound on this land because of years of focus on good land management practices, large neighboring ranches, and extraordinary flora. Whats more, the ranch is currently under the Texas Parks and Wildlife MLD wildlife management plan.
The ranch is low-fenced with interior cross-fencing that creates multiple pastures. In addition, there is an 80 acre high fenced enclosure with working exotic pens on the southwest corner of the property.

Lastly, there is a Surface Use Agreement in place protecting the surface owner, and it will be conveyed with the sale.
Wildlife & Hunting:
Whitetail deer populations are tremendous here with excellent genetics. The proximity of brush, water, senderos, and open meadows make this a hunters dream. The large lakes are the perfect place for afternoon dove and duck hunts while the open grasslands are ideal for blue quail. Furthermore, there is a quail field with 10 quail feeders already in place. In the winter there is a large migratory waterfowl population. Other wildlife seen on the ranch includes bobcats, javelinas, and zebras.
Legacy & Remarks:
The Ship Ranch has been featured in many Shooting Times articles. Frequent visitors to the ranch included big names such as Skeeter Skelton, Bill Jordan, Elmer Keith and Jim Clark Sr. Over the years, many other shooting enthusiasts have tested their newly developed firearm cartridges on the ranch with the owner and founder, Lt.

Description:
Ship Ranch is a 1,198 acre South Texas hunting and cattle ranch for sale in Webb County, Texas. This is an impressive hunting and ranching opportunity that awaits the discerning ranch buyer. The features and long-term quality management of this ranch make it a rare jewel. The property is also part of the historic Ship Ranch, owned and operated by the descendants of Colonel Evan Belisario Quiros for three generations.
Location:
Freer, Hebbronville, and Laredo, with its international airport, are all under 40 minutes away. In addition, the ranch is less than three hours from San Antonio, making it the perfect location for a weekend hunting getaway. It has over a mile of frontage along paved FM 2895.
Improvements:
The main headquarters features a 4BR/4BA 3,072 sq/ft ranch-style home, which was completely renovated in 2014. The home is very well insulated and includes an impressive trophy/game room, 2 large fireplaces, a safe room, and a whole house R/O system. Secondly, there is a newly constructed 2BR/2BA 1,800 sq/ft foremans house.
Additional improvements at the headquarters area include several equipment barns, outbuildings and shops, large working corrals and cattle pens with squeeze and loading chutes. Moreover, there are cattle-weaning paddocks that are connected with a lane leading back to the pens at the main headquarters. A working certifiable livestock scale will also convey.
Water:
A new 2,400 ft deep electric water well in the Carrizo aquifer supplies the improvements on the ranch. The well can produce 130 gallons/minute and is connected to water lines running throughout the property. Beyond this, there are seven 2,500 gallon water cisterns for a water catchment system. Overall, there is a total of 32,000 gallons of rainwater collection potential. Natural water resources on the ranch are also in abundance. There are two large lakes that attract a number of seasonal waterfowl species. Furthermore, several smaller ponds and wet-weather creeks provide additional water to livestock and wildlife.
Landscape & Use:
This property represents the brush country of South Texas at its best, with a diverse mix of mature brush, trees, and grasslands, creating an excellent wildlife and livestock habitat. The pleasant rolling topography provides hilltop views of the surrounding area and escarpment. Ranching and hunting opportunities abound on this land because of years of focus on good land management practices, large neighboring ranches, and extraordinary flora. Whats more, the ranch is currently under the Texas Parks and Wildlife MLD wildlife management plan.
The ranch is low-fenced with interior cross-fencing that creates multiple pastures. In addition, there is an 80 acre high fenced enclosure with working exotic pens on the southwest corner of the property. There is also a well-maintained all-weather road system spanning the entire ranch, providing quick and easy access to all areas. Lastly, there is a Surface Use Agreement in place protecting the surface owner, and it will be conveyed with the sale.
Wildlife & Hunting:
Whitetail deer populations are tremendous here with excellent genetics. The proximity of brush, water, senderos, and open meadows make this a hunters dream. The large lakes are the perfect place for afternoon dove and duck hunts while the open grasslands are ideal for blue quail. Furthermore, there is a quail field with 10 quail feeders already in place. In the winter there is a large migratory waterfowl population. Other wildlife seen on the ranch includes bobcats, javelinas, and zebras.

Webb County - Highway 59, Freer, TX
For the first time in about 75 years, the Continental Ranch in Webb County, Texas is being made available for a new owner. Webb County evokes thoughts of wild, wide open spaces, huge native white-tails, bobwhites and blue quail, red hot tank shoots, mesquite-covered prairie, rich and diverse browse, and native American artifacts. The Continental Ranch checks all of those boxes in spades. This predominantly low-fenced ranch possesses all of the prerequisites for growing trophy native white-tailed deer, along with the romance of the increasingly rare opportunity to hunt a wild, large acreage where you never know what you might see on any given hunt, all combined with a convenient location, big neighbors and excellent access.
LOCATION
Situated in eastern Webb County, with access along U.S. Highway 59, it is easy traveling getting to and from the ranch. Freer, home of the famous Muy Grande deer contest, has your basic groceries and supplies and is only +/-20 miles away. Laredo and the Laredo International Airport are a convenient +/-35 miles from the gate. The approximate distances to other metros are Corpus Christi 80 miles to the east, San Antonio 130 miles north, and Houston 270 miles up Highway 59.
TOPOGRAPHY, RANGELAND & HABITAT
The ranch has lightly rolling country that falls off from south to north with the ranchs elevation ranging from +/-520' down to +/-410'. Wet-weather Black and Mesquitoso Creeks traverse the ranch, eventually joining each other in the north central portion of the ranch. These creeks provide additional relief and habitat beneficial to the wildlife. Ranch soils are predominantly clay and gravely clay, with +/-30% lighter sandy clay loam and sandy soils. Grasses are a mix of native species, including various bunch grasses along with the perennial buffel grass common in the area. The brush is typical of the high-quality deer browse Webb County is known for and includes guajillo, blackbrush, brasil, guayacan, lime prickly ash, kidney wood along with plenty of mesquite, pear, and tasajillo. The ranch features numerous strips in various stages of regrowth. Often mistaken for a live oak, the native coma tree (a preferred browse species) can be found scattered across the ranch with both individuals and small stands present.
WILDLIFE
Under MLDP game management and located in an area known for growing large, native, Texas white-tailed deer, the Continental is a fair-chase, trophy deer hunting opportunity. Properties of this size that are predominantly low-fenced do not commonly make it to the public market. Approximately 80% of the ranch's 20 mile perimeter fencing is low-fenced, with thousands of low-fenced adjoining acres. Bobwhite and blue quail, hogs, javelina, dove, and varmints round out the primary hunting opportunities on the ranch.

This is a working ranch, cross-fenced into six pastures that are watered by numerous tanks, and features a set of working pens on the north end of the ranch and a set on the south end. Perimeter fencing ranges from excellent to fair condition.
The Continentals deer herd is managed under the Managed Lands Deer Program (Conservation Option, fka Level III).
IMPROVEMENTS
An all weather ranch road runs from the gate at Highway 59 well north into the ranch to the northern set of pens. Numerous lateral ranch roads and senderos provide good access to the remainder of the ranch.
Vertical improvements consist of small equipment sheds/barns, and a very small labor ranch house.
WATER
This ranch is watered by numerous tanks. There are 14 tanks spread across the ranch, including a +/-20-acre tank in the northern section and a +/-10-acre tank in the central portion. Many of these tanks are actually "stacked" dams and pits, with the upstream pit and tank spilling over into a second tank so this number is actually understated. This infrastructure was developed by a long time South Texas ranching family - they are done "right". The wet weather creeks will pool during wet periods.
Water from one tank near the headquarters is pumped to the north pens for trough water when necessary.
ELECTRICITY
Distributed in multiple locations around the ranch.
MINERALS
Surface only. There are no leases nor active production.
AREA HISTORY
Webb county has been inhabited by early settlers dating back millennia starting with the Paleo-Indian period. Evidence indicates that these early Coahuiltecan groups were pushed out by other Indian groups like the Comanche and Lipian Apache by the early 1800's. During their time inhabiting these lands they left behind little treasures we get to stumble upon today. There is no doubt they were living on what is now called the Continental Ranch. Watch your step or you might trip on an arrowhead!
The first ever Texas deer contest was started just up the road in the town of Freer, TX. Leonel R. Garza, a gas station manager at the time, founded the Muy Grande deer contest in 1965. This iconic deer contest has brought the areas hunters and landowners together for decades to admire a fellow hunters trophy.

Webb County - Highway 59, Freer, TX
For the first time in about 75 years, the Continental Ranch in Webb County, Texas is being made available for a new owner. Webb County evokes thoughts of wild, wide open spaces, huge native white-tails, bobwhites and blue quail, red hot tank shoots, mesquite-covered prairie, rich and diverse browse, and native American artifacts. The Continental Ranch checks all of those boxes in spades. This predominantly low-fenced ranch possesses all of the prerequisites for growing trophy native white-tailed deer, along with the romance of the increasingly rare opportunity to hunt a wild, large acreage where you never know what you might see on any given hunt, all combined with a convenient location, big neighbors and excellent access.
LOCATION
Situated in eastern Webb County, with access along U.S. Highway 59, it is easy traveling getting to and from the ranch. Freer, home of the famous Muy Grande deer contest, has your basic groceries and supplies and is only +/-20 miles away. Laredo and the Laredo International Airport are a convenient +/-35 miles from the gate. The approximate distances to other metros are Corpus Christi 80 miles to the east, San Antonio 130 miles north, and Houston 270 miles up Highway 59.
TOPOGRAPHY, RANGELAND & HABITAT
The ranch has lightly rolling country that falls off from south to north with the ranchs elevation ranging from +/-520' down to +/-410'. Wet-weather Black and Mesquitoso Creeks traverse the ranch, eventually joining each other in the north central portion of the ranch. These creeks provide additional relief and habitat beneficial to the wildlife. Ranch soils are predominantly clay and gravely clay, with +/-30% lighter sandy clay loam and sandy soils. Grasses are a mix of native species, including various bunch grasses along with the perennial buffel grass common in the area. The brush is typical of the high-quality deer browse Webb County is known for and includes guajillo, blackbrush, brasil, guayacan, lime prickly ash, kidney wood along with plenty of mesquite, pear, and tasajillo. The ranch features numerous strips in various stages of regrowth. Often mistaken for a live oak, the native coma tree (a preferred browse species) can be found scattered across the ranch with both individuals and small stands present.
WILDLIFE
Under MLDP game management and located in an area known for growing large, native, Texas white-tailed deer, the Continental is a fair-chase, trophy deer hunting opportunity. Properties of this size that are predominantly low-fenced do not commonly make it to the public market. Approximately 80% of the ranch's 20 mile perimeter fencing is low-fenced, with thousands of low-fenced adjoining acres. Bobwhite and blue quail, hogs, javelina, dove, and varmints round out the primary hunting opportunities on the ranch.

IMPROVEMENTS
An all weather ranch road runs from the gate at Highway 59 well north into the ranch to the northern set of pens. Numerous lateral ranch roads and senderos provide good access to the remainder of the ranch.
Vertical improvements consist of small equipment sheds/barns, and a very small labor ranch house.
WATER
This ranch is watered by numerous tanks. There are 14 tanks spread across the ranch, including a +/-20-acre tank in the northern section and a +/-10-acre tank in the central portion. Many of these tanks are actually "stacked" dams and pits, with the upstream pit and tank spilling over into a second tank so this number is actually understated. This infrastructure was developed by a long time South Texas ranching family - they are done "right". The wet weather creeks will pool during wet periods.
Water from one tank near the headquarters is pumped to the north pens for trough water when necessary.
ELECTRICITY
Distributed in multiple locations around the ranch.
MINERALS
Surface only. There are no leases nor active production.
AREA HISTORY
Webb county has been inhabited by early settlers dating back millennia starting with the Paleo-Indian period. Evidence indicates that these early Coahuiltecan groups were pushed out by other Indian groups like the Comanche and Lipian Apache by the early 1800's. During their time inhabiting these lands they left behind little treasures we get to stumble upon today. There is no doubt they were living on what is now called the Continental Ranch. Watch your step or you might trip on an arrowhead!
The first ever Texas deer contest was started just up the road in the town of Freer, TX. Leonel R. Garza, a gas station manager at the time, founded the Muy Grande deer contest in 1965. This iconic deer contest has brought the areas hunters and landowners together for decades to admire a fellow hunters trophy.

Webb County - Highway 59, Freer, TX
For the first time in about 75 years, the Continental Ranch in Webb County, Texas is being made available for a new owner. Webb County evokes thoughts of wild, wide open spaces, huge native white-tails, bobwhites and blue quail, red hot tank shoots, mesquite-covered prairie, rich and diverse browse, and native American artifacts. The Continental Ranch checks all of those boxes in spades. This predominantly low-fenced ranch possesses all of the prerequisites for growing trophy native white-tailed deer, along with the romance of the increasingly rare opportunity to hunt a wild, large acreage where you never know what you might see on any given hunt, all combined with a convenient location, big neighbors and excellent access.
LOCATION
Situated in eastern Webb County, with access along U.S. Highway 59, it is easy traveling getting to and from the ranch. Freer, home of the famous Muy Grande deer contest, has your basic groceries and supplies and is only +/-20 miles away. Laredo and the Laredo International Airport are a convenient +/-35 miles from the gate. The approximate distances to other metros are Corpus Christi 80 miles to the east, San Antonio 130 miles north, and Houston 270 miles up Highway 59.
TOPOGRAPHY, RANGELAND & HABITAT
The ranch has lightly rolling country that falls off from south to north with the ranchs elevation ranging from +/-520' down to +/-410'. Wet-weather Black and Mesquitoso Creeks traverse the ranch, eventually joining each other in the north central portion of the ranch. These creeks provide additional relief and habitat beneficial to the wildlife. Ranch soils are predominantly clay and gravely clay, with +/-30% lighter sandy clay loam and sandy soils. Grasses are a mix of native species, including various bunch grasses along with the perennial buffel grass common in the area. The brush is typical of the high-quality deer browse Webb County is known for and includes guajillo, blackbrush, brasil, guayacan, lime prickly ash, kidney wood along with plenty of mesquite, pear, and tasajillo. The ranch features numerous strips in various stages of regrowth. Often mistaken for a live oak, the native coma tree (a preferred browse species) can be found scattered across the ranch with both individuals and small stands present.
WILDLIFE
Under MLDP game management and located in an area known for growing large, native, Texas white-tailed deer, the Continental is a fair-chase, trophy deer hunting opportunity. Properties of this size that are predominantly low-fenced do not commonly make it to the public market. Approximately 80% of the ranch's 20 mile perimeter fencing is low-fenced, with thousands of low-fenced adjoining acres. Bobwhite and blue quail, hogs, javelina, dove, and varmints round out the primary hunting opportunities on the ranch.
AGRICULTURE
This is a working ranch, cross-fenced into six pastures that are watered by numerous tanks, and features a set of working pens on the north end of the ranch and a set on the south end. Perimeter fencing ranges from excellent to fair condition.
