WELCOME Welcome Hunters, to the Ford Ranch Web Site. We have worked Hard on this trying to make it as easy to navigate and understand as possible. If you have any Questions or Comments please send an E-mail to the address shown above. 2012 IS A LEAP YEAR CHECK YOUR WEEKEND DATES! If you show up on the wrong weekend we will not be held accountable. FORD RANCH IS A WORKING CATTLE RANCH COVERING 50 SQUARE MILES. YOU MUST CALL AFTER DARK TO CATCH US AT HOME. IF YOU LEAVE A MESSAGE WE CAN ONLY RETURN YOUR CALL AFTER DARK. SORRY FOR THE INCONVENENCE BUT THERE ARE NOT ENOUGH HOURS OF DAYLIGHT A LITTLE BIT ABOUT THE FORD This Hill Country Ranch, near Brady, lies on 32,000 acres (that's over 50 square miles) of gentle rolling brush country. Our history of Trophy Whitetail Bucks dates back to 1892 and the famed 78-point "Brady Buck", also called the "Benson Buck" by some. Our Whitetail Herd Management Program is designed to enhance these tremendous genetics for trophy racks. Our mature Bucks average 17 and 18 inch spreads and field dress average 108 lbs. Our hunting program is designed for success. If we want to harvest 100 bucks we book 100 hunters. Our average success rate is 97%. WE DO NOT OVER BOOK OR OVER HUNT ON ALL HUNTING Hunts must be booked in advance with a deposit of 50% of the total amount owed. All Children 17 and under MUST have a parent or legal gaurdian who is liscensed to hunt in Texas sitting with them at all times. TEXAS HUNTING LISCENSE'S ARE AVAILABLE AT QUICK STOP STORES, SPORTING GOODS STORES, AND THE SPORTING GOODS DEPARTMENT IN ANY TEXAS WAL-MART STORE OR CALL TEXAS PARKS AND WILDLIFE DEPARTMENT AT 1-800-895-4248 MENU 1. Each Guide has his own country. No one hunts in it but his hunters. He has 2 hunters per hunt. So he has to divid his time equally ALL Guides know their Country and know how BEST to hunt it. You will have a Quality hunt, and a memorable experience. On ALL Hunts, Hunters arrive Friday afternoon, in time to use the gun range. Hunters Hunt Saturday, Sunday, and Monday, and are allowed to stay till Tuesday morning. Guides field dress, skin, and quarter all deer, placing the meat in clear plastic bags, and keeping them in a cooler kept at 34 degrees.Many times a guide will receive per Trophy Buck for a weekend hunt If you feel your guide does not deserve a tip, take the issue up with Ranch Manger Forrest Armke.
