Location

The ranch is located just northeast of Hebbronville, Texas, with over a mile and a half of frontage on hwy 359.

Topography, Rangeland & Habitat

The soils on the ranch are a rich mixture of the very fine sands of the Sarita/Nueces complexes of the classic sand sheet soils of deep south Texas, and the fine sandy loams of the Delmita/Bruni complexes which help retain more moisture during dryer years to make grass and insect production more reliable.

The ranch is a mixture of native grasslands dotted with stands of brush and mesquite and areas with heavier brush species. These are attractive to deer and help protect quail during the extensive summer heat, but they also allow plenty of access for classic quail hunting from quail rigs.

This small tract has a lot of topography on it, creating plenty of roll to it with 40’ of elevation changes. Mesquite Creek runs right through the middle of the property creating some more riparian habitat for further diversity.

Wildlife

Northern Bobwhite Quail:
The primary quarry for hunters on the ranch is bobwhite quail. Much of the ranch is committed to maximizing quail habitat and production through rotational grazing, prescribed burning, and mulching quail strips. Water is distributed efficiently throughout the ranch with nowhere on the property further than a 1/4 mile from a water source. These practices coupled with naturally productive soils, grasses, and brush provide some of the highest quail production in existence.

White-tailed Deer:
The South Las Palmas Ranch is low-fenced and while little deer hunting has been done on the ranch, it has an abundant population of deer on the ranch with excellent habitat for them.

Rio-Grande Turkey:
Plenty of turkey can be found on the ranch.

White-wing & Mourning Dove:
Dove hunting on the ranch is excellent on the ranch particularly at the multiple watering stations. Further development of several ponds would further enhance this ranch as a dove hunting spot and make it one of the best areas for this sport with the numerous town birds that would visit the ranch.
