Just South of Brownsville, Tx. lies our premier, five-star plus destination for Whitewing dove and wild Bobwhite quail.  Overlooking beautiful Lake Las Alazanas, this 100% American owned and operated, Orvis endorsed lodge, boasts the finest wingshooting in all of North America.  Situated on 11,000 private acres, with access to approx. 500,000 acres of hunting concessions, scouting teams pinpoint the daily bird concentrations.  

Being located adjacent to the largest Whitewing nesting area in the world has it’s obvious advantages.  In addition to the world-class shooting, hunters are equipped with a cooler of their favorite beverages and two experienced “palomeros” to retrieve birds, reload shell bags, and otherwise cater to their needs.  

With over 70 well-trained English pointers “on staff”, professional dog handlers, Texas-style rigs and vast acres of prime, all native Bobwhite habitat, covey counts will normally exceed the expectations of even the most avid quail hunters.  

Accomodations, food and service here are simply unparalleled.  Some amenities include an Orvis gun room for fitting each client to their personal favorite Beretta shotgun, inground pool w/swim-up bar, professionally-staffed massage complex, all the clay you can shoot (shells extra), satellite TV, game room with billiards, and telephone/fax service.  Expect hot hors d’oeuvres and fresh, handmade Margaritas upon your return from the field, alongside full breakfasts, hearty lunches, and gourmet meals with fine wine.

The short “journey” to the ranch is an experience in itself.  Private, well-appointed passsenger vans safely deliver hunters to the lodge by way of scenic, well-paved roads.  Mexican culture is evident all along the way, and your driver will most likely make a local stop to replenish “refreshments”.  Prior to departure, guests are met by uniformed personnel at the ranch’s kiosk inside the Harlingen, Tx. airport.  All that is needed is a passport; visas and hunting licenses are secured by the ranch prior to your arrival.  However, all necessary documents need to be submitted to Oliver Outdoors at least 45 days in advance.  Border crossings are typically effortless and take only a few minutes.  Other options for accessing the ranch include private charter from Harlingen to an airstrip minutes away, or commercial/private aircraft into Ciudad Victoria, about an hour away.

Whether your goal is to seriously impress, or just relax with family members or friends, this world-class operation is the place that we recommend!
