WHITETAIL DEER
HUNTS
Whitetail deer are our only passion, and we have some big deer.
The Salt Fork Hunts operation began in 1999 on a fourth generation ranch in Collingsworth County, eight miles north of Wellington, Texas. The ranch is spread out through the county with primary hunting areas along the Salt Fork River. Approximately 17,000 acres have been prepared for whitetail deer hunting.
The hunting areas have a one whitetail buck and one doe limit with no buck to be taken with less than 8 points. Regulations and hunting quotas are set by the state of Texas and by the ranch owners. Hunters are encouraged to help us control predators such as coyotes, bobcats, and feral hogs. We do not hunt quail or turkeys during our fall hunting operations to minimize the disturbance to the deer population.
Our Guides will assist you in locating stands, and retrieving deer in order to ensure a quality hunting experience. Our guides do not accompany hunters during hunts. Salt Fork Hunts offers free range, fair chase experiences as we have restricted use of corn feeders and do not have high fence areas that limit deer travel.

SHOOTING RANGE
AT SALT FORK HUNTS
We require that all hunters test fire at least 3 rounds at the range prior to hunting to ensure all rifles are properly sighted in.
DEER RETRIEVAL + PROCESSING
We retrieve and field dress all deer harvested after each morning and evening hunt with our own ATV’s. We do not allow other ATV’s to be used on the property. There is a meat processor in Wellington who will cape your deer and prepare the meat in any manner you like.
Details concerning processing can be obtained from Scott Cooper at A&K Meat Processing: 806-447-5660

RIO GRANDE TURKEY
HUNTS
The ranch provides an ideal habitat for the Rio Grande wild turkey species, as there are ample roosting areas, a river, multiple creeks, and miles of rolling prairies covered with sage and mesquite. We have winter wheat fields throughout the ranch. There are numerous corn feeders throughout the ranch to hold birds close to hunting areas.
There is a two bird limit on all hunts; two mature Rio Grande gobblers (not jakes) may be harvested during the 3 day hunt.
