New Texas Hunting Leases Available | Dove Season Special

99 New Texas Hunting Leases Just Dropped — And Dove Season Is Right Around the Corner

If you've been waiting on a sign to lock in your spot before the September 1 dove opener, this is it. This week we added 99 new listings to Texas Hunting Lease Listings — the biggest single drop we've ever posted — covering more than 50 counties from the Panhandle to the Rio Grande Valley.

Wherever you hunt, there's something on this list within driving distance: Abilene country sunflower fields, North Texas grain operations an hour from Dallas, Hill Country tanks, and South Texas milo down in Duval, Atascosa, and Hidalgo counties.

The Headliners: Three Multi-Species Leases

Not everything in this drop is dove. Three properties stand out for hunters looking for a season-long home.

1,284 Acres in Runnels County — Seasonal

West of Wingate sits a serious piece of West Central Texas country set up for hunters who want to build something year after year. This MLD ranch runs a rifle season from early October into January, and the landowner does the heavy lifting for you: protein and corn feeders are provided and filled by the ranch. There's a campsite on location with septic and electric. Dove, duck (on the stock tanks), quail, turkey, and pigs are all on the menu, and the ranch is looking for a small crew of six to eight hunters who want to grow trophies, not just take them.

1,000 Acres in Gray & Donley Counties — Annual

Two Panhandle tracts a mile apart, rolling hills of native grass with plum thickets and brushy draws for cover, plus a big dryland farm field that pulls birds. Whitetail, quail, dove, pigs, and predators — with a chance at a spring turkey. A secluded campground next to the farm field has water and electric, and there's potential to add an adjoining 800 acres down the road. Sized right for a small group or a family lease.

Waterfowl Membership in Matagorda County — Seasonal

For the duck hunters: a four-man waterfowl membership on the Gulf Coast prairie in Matagorda County. Availability is limited, so this one won't sit long.

The Dove Drop: 90+ Fields, Tanks, and Sunflower Patches

The rest of this week's drop is wall-to-wall dove country, and the acreage numbers are big:

  • 13,000 acres in Sutton County near Sonora, with stock tanks that concentrate birds in dry September weather.

  • 10,000 acres in Collin County — planted in corn, wheat, milo, and native sunflower, and famously family-friendly.

  • 9,800 acres an hour north of Dallas with grain fields and fourteen ponds — bring a rod, fishing is fair game.

  • 5,000 acres in Colorado County and 4,000 acres in Hidalgo County for the coastal and Valley crowds.

  • 3,100 acres in Duval County running an all-inclusive multi-day package — meals, lodging, and six tanks.

  • 2,500 acres in Coleman County with sunflower, milo, water, and two cabins on site.

  • The JW Burns Ranch in Throckmorton County, a classic Big Country setup with numerous pastures and tanks planted in native and Maximilian sunflowers, wheat, and croton.

Beyond the big names, you'll find day and season dove leases in Bexar, Medina, Uvalde, Waller, Navarro, Coleman, Hamilton, Guadalupe, Williamson, and dozens more counties — many with planted fields, camper sites, and lodging options. Several welcome kids at no charge.

Don't Wait Until August 31st

Every year the same thing happens: the good fields are spoken for by mid-August, and hunters scrambling the week of the opener end up watching birds fly over somebody else's spread. With 99 fresh listings on the board, right now is the best selection you'll see all summer.
