South Division MV2 Ranch

QUAIL POPULATION IS HEALTHY AND RANGE CONDITIONS ARE BETTER THAN EVER AFTER THE FIRE. The MV2 Ranch is arguably one of the finest quail and wildlife ranches in the country. This is the place where range conditions, mother nature, and true land stewardship have come into remarkable alignment creating an ideal ranch and recreational mecca for the true sportsman – an offering on the market that represents a very rare opportunity. The property was once part of the famed 67,000-acre Mesa Vista Ranch, and is home to some of the greatest native bobwhite quail in Texas. This northeastern Panhandle ranch has more than sufficient water to continue to support a healthy bird and wildlife population, with one main feature being an approximate 3.5-mile water line that runs 24/7 with sprinkler heads every 1,000 feet. Quail are the focus, yet the ranch also boasts a very healthy herd of mule and whitetail deer as well! This division is being offered as part of an entire 10,325-acre ranch. LOCATION The ranch is located in west central Roberts County, about 25 miles north of Pampa, about 50 miles north of I-40, and it is west of Canadian. Access to the property is via county-maintained Reynolds Ranch Road, which stretches roughly 3.5 miles north from Highway 70 and leads into the south entry of the ranch. This road also serves as access for the Mesa Vista Ranch Club, and it is highly improved. Pampa hotels and the 5,800’ airstrip are 15 minutes from the ranch. TOPOGRAPHY, RANGELAND & HABITAT The MV2 Ranch is a native grass ranch with the predominant species being buffalo grass, bluestem, gramagrass and Indiangrass. It also has significant areas of rabbitbrush, chickasaw plum, ragweed, and other grasses that have been infused into the ecosystem over the years. Soil types are primarily fine sandy loams. Two-track roads meander all throughout the ranch to access the entire property and have been maintained and shredded for ease of travel. Cattle have not been on the vast majority of this ranch for at least 18 years. WILDLIFE Approximately 30 years ago Boone Pickens started a vision of creating the worlds greatest quail hunting, and this ranch is a key segment of that storied land holding. Because of the historical, expansive care and management of the quail and range conditions this remains one of the best wild quail habitats. A fall 2023 game survey by one of Texas top wildlife biologists, resulted in an impressive flushing of over about 65 coveys! The very diverse landscape of natural habitat is also home to whitetail deer, mule deer, antelope, blue quail, and doves. 100+/- quail feeders and two 600lb protein/corn feeders also supplement the wildlife. IMPROVEMENTS There are miles of good fences, about 1/3 of which has been built within the last 3 years. This allows for smart pasture rotation should the next owner decide to bring cattle back into the ranch, which has not been done in 18± years. WATER The focal point of the ranch water system on top of the Ogallala aquifer is the 4-inch waterline that runs approximately 3.5 miles along the Dry Creek area of the ranch. This is an incredible and diverse topographical area for the ranch that runs north to south from one end of the ranch to the other. A sprinkler head every 1,000 feet provides moisture and water for quail and wildlife all year long and this runs off of a water well on the south end of the ranch. Roberts County receives 23 inches of rain, on average, per year, and 13 inches of snow per year. Approximately 5 water wells. The ranch is allowed for up to 25 additional water wells throughout the ranch to provide additional water for wildlife and livestock (up to 17gpm). Natural stock ponds, potholes, and pools 6 fallow pivot fields Full details on all water can be provided by Broker. MINERALS There is minimal or no production on the ranch.
