Featured Description
This legendary North Texas ranch consisting of 37,224 acres is being offered for sale at a very attractive price and the seller is motivated to make a deal in 2010. The Buckle L is located about 10 miles south of Childress, TX with an entrance on US Hwy 83.
This scenic property is full of spring fed creeks, fantastic hunting, has over 40 surface lakes that are crystal clear, and 23 miles of North Pease River frontage.
This is a great ranch and a real opportunity to make a good buy.
Description
The ranch is comprised of numerous types of terrain, from rolling plains with excellent ground cover of native grasses and lightly scattered brush to hills and canyons with a little heavier juniper, mesquite and brush cover. Along both sides of the North Pease River the soil is rich and the terrain generally flat. There are over 400 acres of cultivated land within the Buckle L, with literally thousands of acres along the river which could be turned into additional wheat fields and food plots.
Seven sets of working pens distributed throughout much of the ranch make for great cattle capabilities. Five of these are full "working pens" with water and electricity. Several traps help in gathering the cattle. The main pens have scales, hydraulic chutes, loading chutes, covered working areas, and a medicine room.
There are two houses on the property. The owner's home features a nice metal roof, 3 bedrooms and 2 baths, completely updated, large open floor plan containing the kitchen, living room, dining room, fireplace and a covered porch. Manager's home is across Hwy 83 on a ten acre parcel. It is also a 3 bedroom 2 bath home. Both homes have large attached garages.
The Buckle L is home to a wide variety of native game. With all the food plots and the feeding program, the wildlife stays in fantastic condition. The best whitetail to date is 193 typical with mule deer in the 160s up to 180 B&C so far. The water on the ranch is hard to describe and needs to be seen in person to understand why this ranch attracts and holds such a good number of quality deer.
