Red Bluff Ranch

Exotics

In addition to our native Whitetail and Mule Deer, we have Red Stag, Aoudad Sheep, Mouflon Sheep, Fallow Deer and Axis Deer.

Aoudad Sheep

The nature of the Aoudad makes hunting them quite challenging as they are very wary and like to inhabit the roughest parts of the ranch.

They can be hunted on foot by glassing the canyons and draws, or occasionally they can be seen at feeders or grazing on one of the food plots around the ranch.

Aoudad can be hunted throughout the year, however, the best months to hunt Aoudad are from mid-November through mid-March when they are more visible.

Hunting methods can be by spot and stalk or stand hunting over known travel routes or food plots. Red Bluff Ranch is one of very few game ranches where a strictly spot-and-stalk hunt for Aoudad can be done.

Red Stag

We have stocked Red Bluff Ranch with the best quality stags and hinds possible.

If you are looking for an exceptional Stag, and do not have the time to travel overseas, please give me a call. My Trophy Red Stag hunts are very reasonably priced, especially considering the quality of Stag on Red Bluff Ranch.

See our rates page for info on fees.

The best hunting time is preferably early in the fall before the Stags loose any points fighting each other. However, the Stag can be hunted from mid-August through mid-February when they start to loose their antlers. We conduct our Red Stag hunts as spot and stalk hunts or safari style.

Mouflon Sheep

The Mouflon is one of the two ancestors for all modern sheep breeds. Unlike most other exotic sheep species, the Mouflon is an actual wild sheep. Originally these sheep were found on the islands of Sardinia, Corsica, and Cyprus.

The Mouflon inhabit some of the roughest country on the ranch. They are very wild and do not stand around when they are spooked. Like the Aoudad they make for a very challenging hunt.

Fallow Deer

Red Bluff Ranch has a small population of mature Fallow Deer. In addition to bucks with good palms, there are a few deer that sport non-typical tines and antler configurations.

Axis Deer

The Axis or Chital Deer, as they are known in the native country of India, are considered by some one of the most beautiful of the exotics in Texas. Luckily, Axis is the most numerous of all the exotic species in Texas. Axis Deer venison is prized as one of the tastiest of all of the exotic species. Both males and females have a dark red coat with bright white spots along the back and sides.

Red Bluff Ranch has a small population of Axis Deer. Due to their difficult nature, we will offer Axis Deer to hunters who are booked for other species as the odds of success on Axis are low.
