Welcome to the home page for KenCookOutdoors and Tarbone Ranch. Take a virtual tour of our Ranch and enjoy some of our spectacular views of the Wichita Mountains and its wildlife that inhabits our little piece of heaven.

We have endured a terrible two yearlong drought during 2011 and 2012. During this time we also suffered a horrific fire that destroyed much of our beautiful forest and many animals. We continue to re-build our habitat and animal population. It is a slow, painful process, but we will persevere in our efforts to re-create a paradise for our visitors both human and wild.

After retirement from a 30 year career as a professional bass angler, we have devoted our life efforts to making Tarbone Ranch a destination for others who share our passion for all things wild. We offer a limited number of hunting and photographic safari opportunities for the trophy game animals that live here. We strive to produce top end trophies from our herds of deer, elk and bison by allowing them to reach their potential mature size.

To enhance these possibilities, we maintain food plots of several varieties as well as the native browse and grasses. We supplement the native food availability with high protein deer and elk feed to assure the animals have a continuous supply of nutrition to maximize opportunity to reach their maximize size and health.

We have built a hunting cabin on the property to house our guests in a place that is surrounded by the beauty of the Wichita Mountains and game animals. It is not a five star lodge, but rather a rustic cabin in the woods with all the amenities to assure our visitors a maximum opportunity to enjoy their stay.

If you have interest in sharing our Tarbone Ranch as a hunter or photographer, please contact us for a visit.
