Hi, I’m H. J. Ledbetter, Jr. and I would like to welcome you to Buffalo Mountain Hunts. As the name implies, we have hunts for the great North American Bison more commonly known as buffalo, but don’t stop there… we also have outstanding hunts for Whitetail deer and Rio Grande turkey. We are located upon the Callahan Divide just south of Abilene, Texas.

Come on into our site and stay for a while. See why we think we offer some of the premier archery and black powder big game hunts for whitetail deer, Rio Grande turkeys, and buffalo in the nation. Big game hunting on Buffalo Mountain Ranch is generally restricted to archery and black-powder equipment. However, there are some exceptions: we allow modern smokeless powder shotguns for hunting turkey, quail, dove and varmints; we allow modern small-bore center fire rifles to hunt varmints; we allow modern .45-70 rifles to hunt buffalo as well. Other exceptions are on a case-by-case basis.

We know that bringing a rifle on public transportation or aircraft can be difficult, so we have a limited number of black powder and smokeless rifles, shotguns, small center fire varmint rifles, for you to use. Just call to reserve one when you book your hunt. We will familiarize you with a loaner weapon at our firing range before the hunt begins. Caps and black powder are available in Abilene.

Our Hunting Manager, Rick Worley, an accomplished archer and bowhunter for both whitetail deer and turkey, is available to answer your questions, and to help you set up your hunt.
