At Sugar B Whitetails, our family-run hunting ranch in East Texas is built by people who genuinely love whitetails and the outdoors. For us, hunting isn't just a sport - it's a tradition, a passion, and an opportunity to create lasting memories with family and friends.
Nestled on 350 acres just outside Athens, Texas, we pride ourselves on offering private, guided whitetail deer and exotic hunts where you feel like part of the family from the moment you arrive.
Mike grew up hunting whitetail and never really stopped. Years later, that passion turned into something more - a love for studying deer genetics and building a herd the right way. What began as a personal passion turned into a ranch where people could experience great hunts without the pressure, price tags, or pretense.
Book a Hunt
You’ll meet Debbe and Mike - not a staff of strangers. Debbe handles the bookings, coordinates your meals (yes, we’ll work with you on the menu), and makes sure you feel at home. Mike guides every hunt himself.
We believe everyone deserves a great hunt.That’s why we offer everything from trophy whitetail hunts to doe meat packages, exotic options like blackbuck and axis, and even single-day trips.
You’ll stay in a private lodge, enjoy home-cooked meals, and fish in our 4.5-acre bass lake at sunset. We’ve got 2–3 miles of walking trails, open pastures, and wooded areas.
We treat every hunter like family. Whether you’re filling the freezer or chasing a trophy, we’ll do everything we can to make your time here unforgettable. At Sugar B Whitetails, you’re not just another booking - you’re part of the story.
