This trip to Legacy Ranch is something I will never forget and can’t wait to come back and bring my boys / family ! Let me start with Ryan & Glorianne the owners , they are truly amazing people and made the entire trip a great experience and get ready to eat good because Glorianne will be whipping up some amazing food !! Ryan is filled with so much knowledge just walking behind his footsteps and and being with him over the last 2 days I’ve learned so much . My guide Tyler , Ryan’s brother . I couldn’t have asked for a better guide / hunting partner. He made every hunt a blast , super comfortable , full of knowledge and I truly felt like I was with a best friend . And seeing him get exited with each kill as much as me was even better . He’s a great guy and super funny . The lodging was absolutely awesome , it had a super good vibe , Extremely clean, comfortable and had everything needed . Not to mention it felt safe , I could leave money out , weapons and belongings and was perfectly fine . The property was absolutely beautiful and truly I could just ride and around and sit in stands just to see all the wildlife and activity and take photos it was truly amazing and action packed every second . I went to sleep each night seeing animals still haha I will be back truly every year now and make a tradition with my boys . There is Nothing better then making great memories at Legacy Ranch

If you want a professional hunt with one of the best guides in the US book a trip here. Ryan treated us like royalty and the animals were plenty. Highly recommend for your next hunt. Well worth it.

What an amazing time at Legacy Ranch. First ever hunting experience and Ryan and Seth were awesome, made sure my first hunting experience ended with a bang. Will be returning for future hunts. The landscape alone is worth the trip.

This weekend-long hunt was an absolutely phenomenal experience! Booked as a surprise by my wife, we enjoyed comfortable lodging, excellent food, and some amazing hunting. The ranch feels like being transported somewhere else; the rolling hills, the deep gullies of water and vegetation and the open views don’t feel like Florida. Instead, this place feels like you could be on a hillside in North Texas or a basin in the Congo. We hunted Axis deer and Blackbuck antelope and the hunts were challenging and rewarding. Definitely check this place out if you want to be treated like family!

Ryan and his family were amazing hosts. The property is absolutely stunning. Over 250 acres of preserve. The cabin facilities were much nicer than I expected. This place literally has everything. Whether you are a novice or experienced hunter there is something for everyone here.
