Improved genetics have been introduced and the ranch carries tremendous trophy whitetails and includes multiple exotics such as black buck, oryx, addax, buffalo, red lechwe, waterbucks, and Pre Davids deer. Two wetland units have been developed for excellent duck hunting and both units have water wells that pipe water to the units for full control. Waterfowl hunting is excellent within the Brazos River valley and is a major flyway for ducks. This area is also known for holding good dove numbers. Several fields are planted for doves on the ranch every year. Plenty of hogs and several blinds are kept outside the high fence area along the river for less controlled hunting opportunities.
