This 160 acres is located in southwest Wilbarger County, Texas, approximately 15 minutes from Vernon. It is very private and is only accessed by a private, deeded easement from the county road through the neighbor to the north along his west fence. This property joins the 517,000 acre Waggoner Ranch on its south side for a half a mile and has very little hunting pressure around it!
The land is divided as 100 acres of pasture and 60 acres of cultivation, which the owner has used to grow winter wheat. The pasture has lots of mesquite trees across it and tall grasses; part of the pasture was grubbed in the past, but even there reemerging mesquite trees are coming back strong. The whole property is fenced too.

Game tracks are everywhere here! Whitetail deer and wild pig will be found in abundance, along with dove hunting and predator calling for coyotes and bobcats. There are some monster bucks in this area! This part of the county has a lot of irrigated farming for wheat, cotton, and alfalfa, which provides year around nutrition for the roaming deer population. Coupled with large pasture blocks and creek bottoms, deer have the opportunity to grow and multiple.
The property has two good tanks on it at different ends of the ranch. The larger one was cleaned out two years ago; the other one has a deep hole in it and holds water very well too. The property has a buried community water line ran from the county road down the easement, with a meter located at the road. This is a huge asset to the property, ensuring you will always have clean drinking water.
The owner would continue leasing the 60 acres of cultivation, for $20/acre cash lease ($1200/year total). This would provide some income back to you to cover the taxes and deer feed. 2014 property taxes were $304, with the ag exemption.
Asking Price: $1450/acre
