South Texas Whitetail Hunts

Guided Whitetail Hunts in Texas

Santa Cruz Ranch is known for its trophy whitetail hunts. With 2 decades of combining and introducing quality genetics into the ranch, we have some of the top whitetails in South Texas. The hunting ranch has virgin native brush that is a natural protein for the quality of antler growth. Due to the soil fertility on the Texas ranch, we're fortunate to farm lab lab during the spring time in our food plots to assist in the quality of antler growth. These food sources are an important factor aside from good genetics for antler growth. All of this careful management makes our guided whitetail hunts special, because when you are sitting in our blinds, you know that a giant buck of a lifetime could emerge from the thorny brush at any moment! That excitement is what South Texas trophy deer hunting is all about.

The Whitetail Hunts

South Texas whitetail hunting offers a variety of terrain but the majority of the hunting on Santa Cruz Ranch is thick dense brush. This makes the ranch ideal for archery or rifle hunts. At Santa Cruz Ranch, we offer spot & stalk, safari style or blind hunting options. Archery, rifle or muzzle loader hunts are available and we have ideal habitat and terrain as well as experienced South Texas guides for all hunting methods.
