HISTORY: The current ownership acquired 441+/- acres in 2004, followed by additional land acquisitions, forming Spring Mesa #1 (the northern half of the ranch). Years later, an additional 1,587+/- acres were added, creating the southern half of the now 3,173+/- acre Spring Mesa Ranch. The land was originally heavily wooded with cedar, and native grasses were in poor condition. Under the vision of Texas oil and gas pioneer Dick Lowe and Dr. John Merrill, former head of TCU's Ranch Management program, the ranch underwent a careful transformation to restore and revitalize the ecosystem. Restoration efforts began with the end goal of taking this ranch back to the 1800s. Through meticulous land management, invasive cedar trees were removed, revealing hidden springs, native grasses and hardwoods.

In Texas, it is rare for a ranch to include an expansive stunning viewshed as a primary asset. The BW Ranch showcases 24 peaks, expansive valleys and views that stretch to Bandera, Kerrville and Medina.
The ever-changing landscape is enhanced by diverse vegetation. Cypress trees surround the main lake. Pecan trees shade the valley. Live oaks and Spanish oaks dot the native grasslands. A lone bull mesquite shades the pavilion. Cedar has been aggressively cleared and prescribed burns have been used to clear and reinvigorate the land.

Whitetails that benefit from enhanced genetics, Rio Grande turkeys, dove and bobwhite quail are native to the ranch. A herd of bison, numbering upwards of 50, graze the flats and hillsides. Auodad sheep along with blackbuck antelope, axis, fallow and sika deer also call the ranch home.

An 8-acre spring-fed lake, stocked with largemouth bass enhanced by Florida bass genetics, blue cats, blue gills and sun perch is arguably the recreational focal point. Anglers have landed some bass that tipped the scales at more than 14 pounds. A boat house, with a bathroom, a fish cleaning station and a pontoon boat, ensures that family and friends can make the most of the clear, inviting water.
The ranch boasts second spring-fed lake, which is smaller. It, too, is stocked with desirable fish for additional angling fun.

LAND. Land that literally takes your breath away and is a breath of fresh air at the same time.
Maple Springs Ranch is the epitome of sprawling Texas hill country acreage. Exciting ranges in elevation and panoramic displays of the Bandera Canyonlands. A little bit of everything... Once again, let us emphasize...THREE (3) impressively STRONG flowing creeks, a super rare quality and incomparable feature. Rock bottom creek beds, level and rolling bottomlands, rising mountain walls, canyons, valleys, ravines, grottos, boulders and exposed tree roots that give this ranch the same vibe as some of the most renowned state parks in Texas. And with much of the ranch undisturbed for many moons, from the low points of the ranch to the high points, who knows what kind of geological formations or artifacts are on the ranch or if there are any caves awaiting exploration. Bring out your inner adventurous self and take this ranch on for all its got to offer.
WATER. Three spring-fed creeks characterized by stone bottom terrain. As it flows downstream, it traverses through slopes, stones and limestone benches, creating scattered cascades of small waterfalls. The surface water is the upmost excellent water source for free roaming wildlife.
ELAM CREEK can be found at the front of the ranch.
SLIM CREEK can be found at the center of the ranch.
BAUERLINE CREEK can be found at the back of the ranch.
LIVE SPRINGS. During our tour of the ranch, we counted at least 7 springs and lets just say we didn't hike every inch of the ranch. How many springs could there be in total? That would be quite an adventure for the thrill seeker. Figure out the reason behind why these three spring-fed creeks haven't gone dry... not even through the severe Texas droughts we've been experiencing. Now, if you ask us, thats some strong water!
WILDLIFE. Undisturbed canyon territory can only mean one thing... who knows what is lurking through the ranch. It is known that whitetail, hog and turkey are native to the area. Every now and then a surprising site of enormous red deer or an occasional exotic thats escaped from neighboring ranches over the years. Abundant variety of woodland birds, song birds and rare sightings of migrating waterfowl.
VEGETATION. The deep canyons, cool temperatures and moist environment enable native hardwoods and plants to flourish. Maple Springs is speckled with shades of golds, reds, oranges, yellows and vibrant variations of green tones offering some of the most scenic landscape in the Texas hill country. The ranch land and canyons are dominated with Maple trees, Spanish Oak, Linden trees, Pecan, Live Oak, Sycamore, Mountain Laurel and many more... Limestone creek beds and river ledges are landscaped with a mix of creeping vines, wild evergreen southern shield and maidenhead fern species.
SOILS. The majority of the ranch is based with Eckrant-Rock outcrop, while the lower portions and narrow valleys have Krum-plately association which consist of clayey sediments. Good for recreation, woodland, wildlife food and cover.
POWER. Power is on the ranch.

Tom Green County - San Angelo, TX
Lee, Lee & Puckitt is very honored and excited to represent the Wilson Carlsbad Ranch to the ranch market!
Listing Broker: Lane Puckitt
Location:
This beautiful ranch is located approximately 12 miles outside of San Angelo, Texas off of US Hwy 87N then north on March Road (paved all except to the last mile approximately but all Tom Green County maintained) then approximately mile on an easement (caliche road) to the ranch entrance.
Terrain:
This gently rolling northern Tom Green County and southern Coke County ranch is extremely scenic! Lots of big, deep soiled valleys with many seasonally dry creek beds rising up to the large hillsides with killer views. Much care has been given over the years to mesquite, cedar, and prickly pear control. Also, the interior roads are considered good. This gorgeous property is completely HIGH FENCED with high-tinsel wire/steel posts. Most of the fences are considered in very good condition with many built within the last few years. Lots of cover for deer and other wildlife and considering our dry range conditions, this ranch has good range conditions.
Improvements:
The only house on the ranch is used by hunters. It is a small concrete cinder block structure with comp shingles, small kitchen & bathroom. There is a very large barn used for storage of ranch equipment, and supplies. Nice barn that was built several decades ago but still in fair condition. A large set of steel corrals for working livestock is next to the barn. There is another set of corrals towards the center of the ranch.
Pastures & Water:
This working ranch is divided into six main pastures, and three traps. There is also some deer holding pens and a soft relief trap for deer. All of the deer improvements are located in the most southern pasture. There are reportedly 9 solar wells and 2 windmills. This is considered to be a very well-watered ranch.
Wildlife:
Being a HIGH FENCED RANCH, the whitetail deer hunting is considered to be very good with many years of management. As previously mentioned, the south pasture has been used for years to grow and raise some high genetic deer with bucks in the 200 + class. Occasionally the owners have released some of these better genetic deer to the other pastures to improve the bloodlines within the whole ranch. Lots of turkey, dove, and even some quail! Another option would be to add some EXOTICS in the future.
Minerals:
Some minerals negotiable.
Comments:
Very seldom does a ranch of this size and quality in this excellent location being near San Angelo EVER come on the market!! This is an opportunity to purchase one of the PREMIER RANCHES in West Texas which has been in the same family since 1914!! That my friends is very special!

Briscoe County - Silverton, TX
Location: The Evans Ranch is located 18 miles East of Silverton TX off of Highway 256 and is 9.5 Miles North of Turkey TX off of Highway 70. The ranch has access from 2 State Highways and is located approximately 281 Miles from DFW (4 Hours and 21 min) 116 miles from Lubbock (1 Hour and 46 min) 93 Miles from Amarillo (1 Hour and 25 min)
Property Description:
The Evans Ranch, once known as Burson Lake, stands as one of the most breathtaking and historically rich ranches on the Texas market today. Spanning 9,586 deeded acres with an additional 160 acres of state land, this ranch is a testament to the rugged beauty and timeless history of the Lone Star State. Having only had two owners since 1940s, this property offers an unparalleled legacy of stewardship and conservation.
Ranch History:
Tony Burson of Silverton purchased the Slaughter Ranch in 1949 at the age of 47. A man of many trades, Tony farmed, ranched, worked as a banker, and even owned a Ford auto dealership with his father and brothers. In 1952, he constructed a dam on the ranch creating what became a 25-acre lake. This lake, fed by a blue spring hole, served as both a water source and a crossing over Bluff Creek.
The lake quickly became a community treasure. Willard Hudson of Clarendon and Dusty Taylor leased and operated the lake, which they named Burson Lake. It featured cabins, a snack shack, and recreational amenities, opening to the public for approximately 20 years. During this time, it was a beloved spot for families and visitors alike.
Tony eventually retired from the cattle business, leasing the ranch to Bill Cushing and later to Mike Smith. In 1973, Tony passed away, leaving the ranch to his nieces and nephews in the Burson family. By the 1980s, the lake had silted in, and the family made the difficult decision to cut the dam.
Don Burson, Tony's only nephew, leased the ranch for many years, maintaining its legacy until the property was put up for sale in the early 2000s. In 2004, the ranch found a new steward in Bill Evans of Kress, Texas. The Burson family couldnt have been happier, knowing someone of Bills character would care for the land they cherished.
From 2004 to the present, Billy and his family have worked tirelessly to enhance the ranch. In 2014, Billy rebuilt the dam and cleared the silt from the lake, restoring it to its former glory. He also expanded the existing home overlooking the water, creating a haven for his family and guests.
One of Billys most significant contributions was solving the ranchs water challenges. When the property was purchased, it lacked a reliable well.

Culberson County - Van Horn, TX
Within its 27,740 acres, the Horse Canyon Ranch in Culberson County showcases the diverse, rugged beauty of far West Texas. Historically, used as a working ranch, the low-fenced property is a recreational paradise that can be accessed from both I-10 and Highway 90. The Lobo-Garren Ranch Road, a well-maintained county road, transects the property linking both major thoroughfares and good dirt ranch roads crisscross the ranch.
While the Horse Canyon Ranch has plenty of the wide-open spaces that define the region, it is only 20 minutes from Van Horn, the county seat, and just over an hour to Marfa, one of Texas most beloved destinations. The ranch is nestled between the Jeff Davis Mountains and the Wiley Mountains. With its expansive views and desert climate, it is reminiscent of Arizona.
Because the landscape includes both desert rangelands and craggy, but accessible mountains, the ranch is home to pronghorn antelope, blue quail and some Gambels quail as well as mule deer, aoudad sheep, free-ranging elk and the occasional mountain lion or black bear.
For the past couple of years, the ranch has implemented a protein feeding program using approximately 22 feeders scattered across the property. Working with the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department, the ranch team participates in aerial wildlife surveys.
Historically, used as a working ranch, the property has been rested from cattle grazing for the past few years. Horse Canyon Ranch is a recreational paradise with agricultural infrastructure including three sets of working pens. The ranch is divided into nine main pastures and three traps. The cattle operation could be easily reinstated as an additional income stream and range management tool. In good years, the carrying capacity is 300 to 350 head of mother cows.
In arid areas, water is crucial. The ranch has five working wells, with a mixture of electric submersible and solar pumps, and two non-functional wells. Water distribution to meet the needs of wildlife and livestock has been an on-going effort. The ranch is home to an extensive network of piping, water troughs, storage tanks and wildlife guzzlers.
The main headquarters includes a three-bedroom/two-bathroom ranch house with a full kitchen, living room and central heat and air, a barn, a storage barn and a tack room as well as one of the three sets of working pens.
Horse Canyon Ranch offers a lifestyle as big as the West Texas sky. Here you can get away from it all and rediscover the peace that comes from elbow room and the grandeur of nature.
To experience the diverse, accessible beauty of Horse Canyon Ranch for yourself, call Howard W. Hood at (830) 739-3815. The ranch is listed for $825/acre.

A comprehensive offering of this size does not come often. The J Ob Farming and Ranching Operation is a clean, turn-key operation with pride of ownership evident in every corner of the property. The operation is not only a multi-facet business opportunity but a sizable land holding with a considerable amount of depreciation for the next owner.
The J OB farming operation is offered at $2,676 per acre, or $28,500,000-- which includes all improvements, equipment/implements, tools, supplies/materials, and the sorghum-almum seed business/seed-stock.
We thank you for you time and for review of the J Ob Farming operation. Please visit out website (link on this page) for more photos and information about this opportunity.
