McGehee Ranch
Features and Information
Location:
Located in Borden County, approximately 10 miles east of Gail, TX.
Acres: Approximately
6,400 acres.
Terrain: The ranch
has a variety of terrain from mesquite flats to gently rolling hills into some
deeper canyons making the ranch perfect for the cattleman as well as hunters
and outdoor enthusiasts. A 300 acre field is located on the northern portion
of the ranch. The field has most recently been used for hay and grazing but
does have a crop base. The property has a good cover of grasses including buffalo,
side oats, tabosa, bluestem and other grasses common to the area. Trees on the
ranch include mesquite, hackberry, cottonwood and wild plum with other common
browse and shrubs.
Improvements: One
set of working pens. Property is fenced and cross fenced.
Water: Extremely
well watered ranch with over 20 stock tanks with several of the tanks covering
over 5 surface acres. Bull Creek runs almost 3 miles through the northern portion
of the ranch. This creek runs seasonally but holds water throughout the year.
Hunting/recreation:
This ranch offers a wide range of hunting and activities to engage any outdoor
enthusiast. The varying terrain offers great habitat for the trophy whitetail
deer and antelope found on the property as well as abundant quail. The large
system of stock tanks ensure super duck hunting and fantastic catfish and bass
fishing. Bull Creek with its large trees offer ideal habitat for the countless
turkeys found on the ranch. Then there are the wild hogs which roam the property
offering another opportunity for hunting.
Minerals:
None will be conveyed.
Comments: This ranch
is the kind that only comes along once in a great while. Held in one family
for over 100 years the property runs deep with the history of the Indians who
once roamed the area and the cattlemen who settled the land. The property offers
great opportunities to enjoy a well rounded list of recreational activities
as well as provide the necessary parts for a working cattle ranch. Add all this
to the fact the property has county road access to two different areas and you
have one remarkable ranch!
