4,000 acres in Webb County.

Most hunters here in Texas drive to a stand to hunt so does it really matter how big the whole ranch is when all you are hunting is the small area around your stand?

Yes it does. That is diverting from the original post BTW.

Catto Gage ranch near Marathon and the O2 south of Alpine, not sure of the exact size, but both were monster spreads...

I also hunted a 20,000 acre place out of Barnhart. 1,000 acres was his bull pasture so we could only actually hunt 19,000 acres.

100,000 acres in TX and 48,000 in Colorado

We held a lease outside of Eldorado that was 10k, hunted that place for 15 years. I go to the Indianhead all the time with is 10k. In RSA we hunt a 60k acre low fence place.

48,000 HF in Stx, soon to be over 100,000 acres in S Africa

5K HF in Bandera. When you add in all the hills, it's more like 10K. The ranch manager told me the fence line was about 17 miles.

In Texas, about 25-30,000 acres, although my pasture was only about 1400 acres. Current lease outside Abilene is 4500 acres

In Africa, we hunted a couple LF places that were between 10-20k acres. The HF Concessions were from 80,000-140,000 acres.

On the other end, my Boerne lease is less than 50 acres LF, but sits next to a 3000 acre preserve with no hunting. I see WAY more critters on that small parcel than I did on my South Texas 1400 acre pasture. Way more. They just travel through my parcel to/from the preserve.

That's sweet, John!

Deer, 1000 acres largest, 52 acres smallest

If you count prarie dogs as hunting then it's 90,000 acres. First year we were there we both said "dang it's big" I could see plenty of God's earth beyond an Aeromotor, but I bounced a laser off of it at a mile, from where I was standing.

One of those places that makes you feel small.

2000 HF

640 sections, over 400,000 acres in New Mexico pronghorn hunting. 10,000 acre pasture on a 70,000 acre ranch, white tail hunting in South Texas.

Around 50,000 acres Elk and Deer hunting in S.E. New Mexico.

106,000 acres, if I remember correctly. Never saw the whole thing.

Lease some land on about 15,000 acres right now, and am lucky to go to a 10,000 and 15,000 acre places in South Texas every now and then.

Hunt a place in Maverick County thats 138 K for the past 20 years..

Biggest place which I still hunt is 240 sections which is about 153k acres. I don't think ill ever see the hole thing.

Biggest high fence was 21k
Biggest deeded "pasture" was 82k in the panhandle.

The hunting is really good, the drought was hard on the animals last year, but had some good rain in May, so that should at least get the racks developed. Hope more rain is to come.

Driscol in Duval -10, 000-100, 000 depends on who you ask
Bruni in Webb-the main pasture where an old ranching lady who was either a bruni or married to one at some point. 10, 000+ place had a lot of artifacts and mountain lions.
San Miguel-Mexico (don't know for sure because it wS part of the Yano. And the Yano was supposedly bigger than the King so 800, 000 plus?)
Brazil pasture- Mexico 5, 000 LF
lawyer ranch- owner was a lawyer for the Longoria family. 10, 000 HF mexico

It is amazing country. This ranch has whole Indian villages tee pee rings, eagle traps the indians put out and you can find arrowheads just about anywhere. Now they ruining it with tons of windmills.The big sky country is turning into the big windmill country.

In Texas 5000 acres near Rocksprings back in the early 70s.
In New Mexico 457,000 Vermejo Park, now belongs to Ted Turner, some really beautiful country, lots of Huge mule deer, elk and several buffalo on the place-early 80s

South Vietnam, about 67 thousand square miles. Where the prey shot back...
