Property Description
Turnaround Ranch presents 1,330± surveyed acres of exceptional West Texas country, offering a combination of quality wildlife habitat, native grasses, mature trees, and diverse topography. Renowned for its outstanding whitetail deer, turkey, and bobwhite quail hunting, the ranch provides the habitat and scale sought after by serious recreational ranch buyers.
Land
Turnaround Ranch is defined by a strikingly diverse landscape of expansive drainages, deep canyons, and mesquite flats. Mature mesquite and extensive native riparian vegetation including cottonwood, soapberry, hackberry, and wild plum follow the draws and canyon bottoms, creating secluded corridors and exceptional natural cover, while the ranch’s abundance of native grasses provides valuable forage throughout the property. The combination of varied topography, dense brush, wooded drainages, and native grasslands creates an exceptional mosaic of wildlife habitat.
There are two wells on the property providing wildlife and stock water along with drainages that have pools of water during normal moisture years.
Improvements
There are no building improvements on the property but power is supplied to a number of suitable building locations on the property. Fencing is mostly in good condition with the property cross-fenced into two pastures.
Recreation
Turnaround Ranch supports an abundance of native Rolling Plains wildlife, offering excellent hunting for whitetail deer, Rio Grande turkey, bobwhite quail, dove, and feral hogs. The ranch’s bobwhite quail population is particularly impressive, offering the potential for exceptional quail hunting in years of favorable moisture. A diverse combination of open country, native grasses, and riparian areas creates a highly productive wildlife environment and a natural magnet for game. With thoughtful habitat management, including a well-planned grazing regime and additional perennial water sources, the ranch offers significant potential to further enhance its already outstanding wildlife resources.
Several locations across the ranch feature substantial natural watersheds that present excellent opportunities for the construction of deep stock ponds. With proper development, these potential water features could provide additional wildlife habitat while creating opportunities for recreational fishing, further expanding the ranch’s recreational appeal.
