What Makes Us
Different?

  • Irrigated Oilseed Sunflower plots providing habitat and food sources.
  • Our property is managed year-round to create optimal living conditions.
  • Strategically placed ponds with shoreline water access, ideal for doves.

We have world class white winged dove hunting right here in Texas. Thinking about an Argentina white winged dove hunt……no need to leave the states. San Antonio residents can reach Hondo in 30 minutes for a white winged dove hunt.
