Conservation

Hunt the rarest.
Fund the recovery.

3-S stewards four conservation species in Texas — scimitar oryx, addax, red lechwe, and barasingha — that are endangered or extinct in the wild. Red lechwe and barasingha are hunted under USFWS permit. Scimitar oryx and addax fall under the federal ‘Three Amigos’ exemption. A portion of every conservation hunt is reinvested directly into the herds, habitat, and SHSU research that keep these animals on the landscape.

Meet the Stewarts

Wildlife is the family business.

3-S Texas Outdoors is a Stewart family operation, and it shows in every detail of how the ranch is run.

Chris Stewart, ranch manager, holds a Master's in Wildlife Ecology, is a founding lecturer in Sam Houston State University's wildlife management program, and serves as Region 4 Director of the Texas Deer Association. Randy Stewart owns and oversees the operation. This is a ranch managed by credentialed wildlife professionals — not a hunting club with a brochure.

The Lodge

Luxury lodging. Chef-driven food. A ranch for the whole family.

Thrilling hunts. Relaxed evenings. Sporting clays, a long-range rifle range, and quiet rooms with the fire still going.

Family activities — ranch tours, fishing, clays — for every guest in the party, hunter or not. Lodging, meals, and guide service all included in the daily rate.
