Sweetwater Creek Bow Hunting http://www.sweetwatercreekbowhunt.com/ - Anyone hunted here? Looking to do an exotics hunt in the spring. Don't have unlimited funds, so cost is important; not as concerned about animal (trophy) size as I am animal quality and fair chase.

Check out www.texasbowhunter.com for more info on this ranch in the Rate the Day Lease section. I recommend the BAR E Ranch in Hondo, TX. Their web address is www.bareranches.com.

I've corrected the web address for the BAR E Ranch. It will work now. :grin:

I had found Bar E; it looks like a great place to hunt. I think we are going to try Sweetwater Creek next spring since it is only about an hour from the house. Maybe I can work in a hunt at Bar E next summer/fall. Prices seem right for out price range on both. Let us know how Bowhunter's Paradise turns out; they have reasonable prices as well.

I just put a post under Bowhunting-we just returned from Sweetwater & It is also one of the places in my new release DVD on Bowhunting Exotics & hogs among several others. I am going back in March & also fall of 2005 oplus I hope to go b/4 Christmas this year after out Deer season.
The quanity, Quality of the animals just gets better.

for those of you that have not tried this Bowhunting only Ranch you are missing a very excellent fun time. I have 2 more hunts booked with them-March & Oct. & if they were closer I would go more often. I am bowhunting several places again in the making of my 2nd Exotic/Hog Bowhunting video. I am headed for Shiloh Ranch in Oklahoma the 29th for Hogs. This is another excellent place for Hogs & Rams. With some of the Deer seasons winding down-these places are an excellent way to expand you Bowhunting at a very reasonable price. I have only filled 1 (bonus) antlerless Whitetail tag at home. I have 1 antlerless (bonus) tag & 1 Buck tag left. I have passed on several smaller Bucks within easy bow range & also several Does that had this years fawns with.
Good luck to all the rest of 2004 & 2005 too.

Back from Shiloh (Oklahoma) & I took a nice est. 145# hog the end of the 1st day after 2 misses & my son-in-law took his 1st ever Bowkill (Black hog) on the last morning of our Bowhunt-he also had 2 misses b/4 scoring. It was a great fun time & this place is awesome for Daytime hogs over feeders. We saw an average of 30 hogs per sitting & every size you can imagine. Now to finish out the late Bow season & try to tag one of those good Bucks that elueded the shotgunners. Then Sweetwater in March.

Springer-did you ever set up that hunt at Sweetwater? Our time is coming fast-end of March.

Never made it; other priorities took over (new 40x60 shop with an acre of brush to vlean up - as you can tell, I haven't been in this forum for a while). The beauty of it though is they are right down the road and there is always next year!
