Some big ultra pressured deer. Have a friend that hunts it every year. He has had some big buck encounters but the deer a heavily pressured...

I hunted it two years ago and saw some quality bucks. We went after christmas and they were rutting. My cousin shot and missed one with a droptine. We also saw one that was pushing 140in which is good for a day lease. Tons of does...i believe he is letting you shoot them now, we couldnt back then. But all deer are educated so be prepared to hide very well and hunt very smart.

Great day lease. You will see some good deer, but as others have said you better be smart because Pete's bruisers are.

Every year I tell myself I am going to hunt Brushy Hill and something always comes up. I can not wait to hunt it though.

Ranch just won't be the same without Rusty. Bring your A game to this place.

I am going there in October for a three day hunt and was wondering the same thing as you. I have heard good things but everyone says you need to brush up your blind really well or get up off the ground if you are around the river. We are thinking of booking a hog hunt in September to check it out before we get there to deer hunt to just see what the area is like.

Hunted it last April for turkey. They have several pastures with their own bunk house. Comfortable facilities. They have a pretty good website. The various pastures are good for different game. Hog heaven is where we hunted. Liked it enough to book another hunt next year.

Guys let me say this. I ran hunts in 1995 in the Hog Heaven area ( that was my camp) and in Medina County pasture. That was the first year it was bowhunted. Pete took over after our first year.

That means for the last 14 seasons, those deer have been exclusively bowhunted, meaning they have seen every camo pattern, heard every grunt, bleat or any other call, smelled all lure and cover up scents and basically they have PHds in avoiding bowhunters.

My boy worked for Pete for a couple of months late Spring for his practicum in Wildlife Management. Like every where else around here, the ranch is hurting for water, but the deer are there, educated as hell, but quite doable if you stay on your toes.
