“I can’t recommend the entire crew at Double S Adventures highly enough. Their entire operation runs as smooth as one would hope. Shaun runs a tight ship and an excellent guide team. Alex is amazing with the communication, scheduling, and any issues that come up before your hunt (and pretty much anything else you need). The new lodge is almost done and will make it even more top notch on the accommodations side. Even still, the guest houses were incredibly comfortable and well done. Go see them!.”
— Troy Buford
“Had an awesome hunt for an Addax. The guides and animals are outstanding, can’t ask for a better place to go hunt and the accommodations are way above expectations.”
— Frank Hernandez
“Double S is top notch with some of the most amazing staff. I came into the hunt feeling nervous since I knew nothing about guided hunts and what to expect. I came to the ranch as a simple stranger and came out with lifelong friendships. These guys will not disappoint and I cannot wait to come back down.”
— Alexandra Fagan
“Everybody involved is amazing to work with. Guides are awesome and the food was delicious! Amazing views and great accommodations. Had an absolute blast and can't wait to go back again.”
— Kyle Westphal
“What can I say. Double S Adventures was an amazing experience. We were welcomed with amazing hospitality and were treated like family. Shaun was determined we were not leaving his place without our animal we planned to harvest. They worked and planned extremely hard to put us on our beautiful Gemsbok. My hat goes out to Double S Adventures for making memorable memories of a life time with my son. If you guys are looking for some amazing animals and hang out with amazing people to hunt with. I 100% recommend Double S Adventures for your next hunting adventure..

“Hunted on the Briar Oaks Ranch with the Untamed women’s hunting group for a ram hunt for my daughter’s 30th birthday. Great time with knowledgeable guides who took care of all the details. Even had spare time for just fun fishing and hanging out. Shaun and Alex make sure all the details are taken care of and the addition of Lyndsey as a guide was a plus! Staying in the Briar Oaks Ranch was a treat with a roomy sleeping lodge and the food was amazing! A great experience all around.”
— Traci Davis Wright

“I had a great time out with Double S Adventures at Briar Oaks Ranch. The food was great and the lodging was super clean and modern. Was able to see a ton of wildlife out at the ranch and was able to take a beautiful wildebeest and scimitar. Shaun did an amazing job putting me on what I was after. Everything went very smoothly from Alex helping with booking the hunt to learning a lot out hunting with Shaun. I am definitely going back again.”
— Jude LeBlanc
“We took our entire family hunting with Double S and Briar Oaks Ranch for Christmas! It was the most amazing experience ever! We try to create memories as presents and we all agreed to do it again next year (if not sooner)! Everyone was so hospitable and we all had a great time! Ages 8, 13, 17, 41, 42! Highly Recommended!.”
— Brandy Courville
“Thank you so much for this weekend! Shaun and crew made this weekend an unbeatable 50th birthday hunt for my husband! All the way from Alex handling the booking, Shaun as our guide and the Briar Oaks crew and accomodations and meals! We will most definitely be back and have already recommended them to other hunters. What an amazing experience! Thank you!”
— Summer Guilliams
“Top notch. Been hunting all my life, met lots of folks. Shaun and his guys are just right. I’d say sorry but I ain’t, they’ll be soaking up my money for years to come.”
— Derrick McClain

— Kyle Blackwell
“Shaun with Double S was an excellent guide! Put me on a beautiful group of Oryx, I dropped my first. 31 inches, beautiful color and lots of meat. If you are looking for a guide that will work to get the job done Shaun is your man!”
— Corye Austin
“Shaun is all you ever want in a guide. Tell him what you want and expect animals to come in range! He is very knowledgeable and hardworking, food was awesome, and time was had. I’d be happy to hunt with him again.”
— Sam Austin
“Amazing time with Shaun. This was my first exotic hunt and it didn’t disappoint. I can’t wait till I can go back.”
— Justin Klump
“Shaun and his crew were all great guides on our Axis and Blackbuck hunt on Briar Oaks Ranch. They took all the measures to make us comfortable as well as getting on the animals despite the bad weather we had over the weekend. These guys really work hard to get you exactly what you came for and will not stop until you get your trophy. Highly recommend Double S adventures for your exotic and trophy hunting!”
— Kaitlin Estes
“The entire crew was nothing but great to my girlfriend and I on our hunt. Shaun and Josh busted their backs to get us on the game we wanted and came through. My girlfriend and I both harvested beautiful game. I highly recommend them to anyone on any budget. I was very impressed with how things operated and how professional these guys were. I’ve been on many big game ranches though out South Texas and this honestly has been my favorite and best experience. The hospitality is amazing and they treat you like family, not just a client or customer. You feel like you have known these guys for years after just meeting them. I will absolutely be coming back.”
— Preston Jones
“Great hunt, great guide & ranch. Beautiful animals out at the ranch. Couldn’t have asked for a better time with my son. Look forward to coming back!
— Johnathan Tally
“Had a great experience setting up a prairie dog hunt. Shaun always returned messages and phone calls and was always informative. We had a smooth transaction and we enjoyed our first prairie dog hunting experience up in the Texas panhandle. If you want to test your marksmanship, I really recommend this hunt!”
— Joel Villarreal
“Our family had an awesome time with Shaun and his team from Double S Adventures. They were able to put together a 4 generation hunt for my wives family and they knocked it out of the park. Between the food, hospitality and great hunting it was a trip that no one will forget. Their ability to make us feel like family was easy, and they would always go the extra mile to take care of any of our needs. Perfect environment for families of all ages and they are great with kids. Our son has special needs and they took care of everything to ensure he had a great time, and he’s still smiling from his hunt. We are looking forward to our next hunt with Double S Adventures, and to adding more memories for our family to talk about for the next generation.”
— Michael Amigh
“I've hunted big deer since I was 5 years old. Less then 48 hours ago, I left their ranch, and have booked a hunt w them for this coming November. High quality animals, high quality service, and the best food/drinks/laughs, etc. you can imagine. Between the deer I shot and food I ate, I came back 150+ pounds heavier. If there was a 6-star review, I would give it. Hope to see you out there this fall.”
— Jeffrey Hodges
“Double S Adventures is the best vacation/hunt I’ve ever been on from the beautiful land and animals to the family like service as Bobby likes to say “Come as strangers and leave as family” well y’all sure did that we were having to much fun and decided to stay a few extra days and Bobby and Shawn did not complain they put us in a room and treated us more like family. My family and I were planning when we were going to come back before we even left😂. Also if your not a hunter you can go sit in a stand and see some once in a life time animals, truly breathtaking. From the hunting to the catering and hospitality this place is 10 of 10 and truly a once in a life time trip!!.”
— Kalee Meeks
“Hay guys and gals. I’m 71 disabled Vietnam vet and got to make my sissy guided hunt ever. I was lucky enough to get Shaun as my guide. We had a beautiful evening hunt and I killed my biggest buck ever. He is a very pleasant and thoughtful young man. After the shooting was done he took care of everything. I would recommend Double S Adventures to anyone.”
— Jimmy Hufstetler
“This past weekend I got the opportunity and was blessed to be able to harvest the buck of a lifetime. Thank you Double S Adventures & Briar Oaks Ranch. Shawn is the best guide in the game. The ranch is breathtaking and the food is 5 star quality every meal. I can’t wait for April when I take my wife up there.”
— Ruben Hernandez
“We had a great time hunting with Shaun. Treated us like family and everything was well taken care of from food to lodging and animal care. You will not be disappointed. He got us on some beautiful Oryx and we couldn’t be happier. Thanks again Shaun we will be back.”
— Jeffrey Hodges
“Awesome time. Shaun hooked up a meat hunt at a great price. The location was awesome, great people out there. All kinds of beautiful creatures to bag. Food made by Bobby’s wife was fantastic. He’s setting me up for a red stag cow hunt in January and some hog hunts for myself and my niece and brother for the next couple months. Great dude providing some excellent hunts”
— Brian Aft
“If you want to see the breath of your dream game, better call Shaun. The dude gets it, he’s got the brain of a hunter with the network of a broker. Don’t wait another year wishing you had, go for it and trust that this man will get it done, because he will. Happy shooting fellas!.”
— Colton Collen
“12/10 100% highly recommend Double S Adentures. I've hunted through them twice on the ranch and was treated like family. Looking forward to many future trips.”
— Katelyn Teague
“Had a blast. Stayed longer because I felt at home. Would recommend highly to anyone wanting a true getaway you will remember forever!!!”
— Mike Allbright
“Had an amazing hunt with Double S, highly recommend checking these guys out for a great hunt!”
— Drew Dimmitt
“Shaun is incredibly knowledgeable when it comes to pursuing game of any kind and has connections and agreements with pretty much any type of outfitter you could need so booking your hunting adventure thru Double S is a no-brainer. Whether it's setting up in a box-blind on a feeder waiting on a trophy whitetail, going after a blackbuck safari-style, putting a spot and stalk on a monster axis or aoudad, smacking ducks over a spread, blasting sandhill cranes as they glide within 30 yards of your decoys or spending the day with a group of buddies wearing-out prairie-dogs in the panhandle, Double S Adventures has the connections and expertise to make your trip the hunt of a lifetime.”
— Lance Efird
“DSA took my son on a great hunt. It was the first time he had ever hunted. They were patient and knowledgeable. He took his first animal and he’s hook in hunting. They have some beautiful animals to harvest and are so fun to be around. The lodging was excellent… but the most important thing is how much they care for the people they guide. I would HIGHLY recommend!”
— Shannon Roberts
“10/10 hands down one of our greatest adventures! Robert and Kate were amazing and made sure that we had a great time! The food and lodging were excellent as well. We will definitely be going back! Thank you Double S Adventures!!”
— Stephanie Lufsey
“Highly recommend Shaun and Alex as well as the entire crew at Double S Adventures. Shaun and Alex were absolutely amazing with my 11 year old son who has Autism that harvested his first ram. They were both super encouraging as well as super patient with him. Super nice people and great place to relax. They have some beautiful animals there. Take your camera as well as your rifle if you go. You won't be sorry. Amazing people and amazing place.!”
— Jo Tompkins
“Shaun and the entire crew were amazing! Took great care of my 3 boys, 2 who shot their first deer! Made the entire hunt a great experience. We hunt with him for family vacations.”
—Corey Courville
“I was the second hunter at their new ranch in Burnet. I must say, I will definitely be back! Everything is top notch, from the staff, food, sleeping amenities, fallow deer next to your casita, or drinking a cup of coffee on the back porch watching exotic animals graze the fields. Perfect place to take a monster down or just to take your family and enjoy the good ol Hill Country!”
— Elias Salinas
“This entire crew is top-notch!
You literally come as strangers & so quickly feel like you’d known them your whole life.
The whole experience goes above & beyond what I could have expected! Being here during the hot summer was well worth it to experience the axis rut & their screaming.
Come in from hunting and eat like a king. Their home-cooked meals are delectable!
They bring your meat (if you want) to a butcher to be processed. They also can prep and bring your animal to their trusted taxidermist for you.”
