Just east of Montague Tx, on Hwy 59 and Weed Rd sits The Bar T Ranch, one of the gems of the Bybee Family Properties. The Bar T is being offered for the first time. This legacy ranch is rare in many ways beginning with its size of approx. 485 acres; it's very rare in desirable Montague County for a ranch of this size to become available. Although the size for the area is rare, the canvas of the Bar T is what separates itself from the pack. The Bar T, with its abundance of water, elevation changes, and hardwoods separates itself from others. There are no less than 12 ponds, all in good to excellent condition, some with excellent fishing. Many of the ponds have unique traits, behind the dams are large drop offs into large ravines or creeks with hardwoods, and some are nestled into heavy timber that line the banks, making excellent duck and waterfowl hunting. In addition to the multiple ponds on the Bar T, Dye Creek, a primary feeder creek, runs through a good portion of the property. When Dye Creek isn't running, pools of water can be found through much of the creek bed. There are several ravines and draws throughout the ranch that feed the multiple ponds. Bar T sits in an area known for exceptional sub surface water and procurring multiple water wells will be an option for the owner. The terrain of the Bar T is diverse with nearly 90 feet of elevation changes throughout the ranch. There is a range of hardwoods and big timber, from post oaks and red oaks to hackberry and even some cottonwoods along the big ravines. There are several open meadows that are surrounded by timber, the largest being approx. 43 acres. The meadows are excellent resources for native grasses, food plots, and improved grasses for livestock and wildlife. The Bar T is divided into 4 different pastures allowing the rancher to rotate livestock. Hunting on the ranch is exceptional, as only limited family has hunted the ranch for years. Whether you're a bow hunter or long range rifle hunter the Bar T has the set-up. Common game are whitetail, turkey, hogs, coyotes, bobcats, duck, geese etc. Access to the ranch is exceptional with a black top entrance off of Hwy 59, or CR entrance on Weed Rd. There is just under a mile of frontage. The interior roads are good to excellent to maneuver throughout the property. The owner has added some additional roads recently. The Bar T is suited for anyone whether it be residential, ranching, hunting, recreation, or future development. The Bar T has no oil field production on the property. The Bar T stands alone! Don't miss out on this rare opportunity to own a true legacy ranch.
Division Manager/Agent Remarks: The Bar T is one of those that only comes around every so often. After 24 yrs of marketing ranches, the Bar T is definitely a top 5 property worthy of all the praises. To begin with it is unusal to find a ranch of this size in Montague County that is this clean. The ranch has maintained its natural beauty and natural resources. There aren't any dump sites, oil field etc. There are a couple pipelines but are very well maintained and not obtrusive to the ranch. For lack of better terms, it is a watertopia for the rancher or outdoorsman when it comes to H20. Whether it's surface ponds, primary creeks, ravines or water well potential, the Bar T has it. The overall landscape is unreal with an abundance of oaks, open meadows usually with water within a stone's throw. Wildlife are in their own utopia with all the natural resources and lack of pressure. The Bybee Family has had limited hunting with family on the ranch. The Bar T is not being grazed currently and grasses are abundant, so livestock will have a "field day".
