Had a cousin-in-law’s dad who owned a place out there. They’d divided up a 2000 acre ranch into 50 acre plots and sold them off. It was a cool place, but the hunting was pretty mediocre considering there were probably 100 people a year hunting 2000 acres.

You will just have to look at it and see what is around you and what it offers. There is a 272 acre place just up from us that is running $568.000 with a house surrounded by large acreage. Best of luck it took us three years to find our place.

WE HAVE A LAND OWNERS ASSOCIATION. We pay $2 per acre and they maintain the roads. We also have a cattle lease that keeps ours taxes down, I believe we pay $135 for the 84 acres.
We do have rules, No subleasing, no hunting operations or businesses off the property.
We have mirror tags for our vehicles to recognize land owners.
Its a 4000ac ranch that broke up called Stagecoach Springs/Broken Spoke.
Granted, I did see more deer 13years ago when we first bought, but all low fence externaly and we have different species on game camera over the years.
Audad, sika, fallow, axis, Whitetail, pigs, turkey, seen 1 javelina and some wild goats.
We bought if for the get a way and a place to hang out. The animals are just the bonus.

We were looking for a place big enough to hunt on that had water and electric and a place to live. We found what we were looking for and then some. There is a really nice place just up from us the is 272 acres that is very nice with the same amenities as our place although it is a little bigger and higher price it is very nice.

We looked at several tracts that had been subdivided onto 40 to 100 acre pieces. Some looked promising but a couple areas had been nearly shot out. Several tracts of 40 acres or more had a box stand every 100 or so yards along their perimeter. There was very little deer sign in that area. Lots of plots were for sale by owner there and lots of abandoned camp areas. We didn’t see much of a hunting future, if any, in those areas. Getting into an area that is game managed, IMO. Is a must. Besides, it is a 10 hour trip from home down there. Some beautiful country for sure, just be very very cautious if hunting is your main reason for buying.
