Welcome to Longneck Ranch

Longneck Ranch was established in 1999 as a family hunting and recreation oasis near Uvalde, Texas by two lifelong friends and business partners, Doug Ivey and Hardy Watford. Today, the ranch has evolved into a guided native and exotic hunting paradise on 2100 acres of beautiful transition Hill Country supported by one of the finest Whitetail Deer breeding operations found anywhere.

In an effort to develop the ranch's whitetail genetics, the partners made the decision in 2002 to take control of the herd's future by becoming a Whitetail Breeder with a focus for their deer breeding operation that is simple: Only the best will do.

With this goal in mind, the partners set out to acquire top genetics from not only Texas, but from around the country as well. To complement these efforts, they have developed an intensely managed breeding program. From state-of-the-art animal husbandry to scientific vaccination protocols, there are no short cuts taken to ensure that these valuable genetics can be fully expressed.

Within Longneck Ranch's breeding operation you will find genetics from top AI sires such as Stickers, Maxbo Extreme, WMF, Easy Money, Ground Zero, Flintstone, Highlander, Baker, Bambi 727, BB Peanut, Gladiator, Monarch I, and Stitches. We also have direct descendants through our does bred directly to Bambi Cactus and Bambi Blossom.

As you can see, the Longneck Ranch takes great pride in our breeding operation. We also take great pride in our customer service and our ability to facilitate the process for our customers acquiring deer for their breeding and ranching programs. We believe a personal and professional relationship is important to our customers and they know we will be there to follow up long after they have received their deer.

Longneck Ranch offers bred and open does and a limited selection of bucks annually to meet all your whitetail deer needs. We invite you to contact us at any time to learn more about our operations or to schedule a visit. We look forward to meeting you!
