The Malonsons

Roy Douglas and Shirley Ann Malonson established Malonson RS Ranch in 1982 in the community of Acres Home located in Harris County, Texas on 23 acres. In 2004 The Malonsons purchased the beautiful 251 acre ranch of the legendary race car driver AJ Foyt in the gentle rolling hills of Waller County, Texas (between Hempstead and Grime County line), just 50 minutes from downtown Houston and 35 minutes from College Station. In 2008 The Malonsons started their Whitetail Breeding Program on 35 acres, renamed their ranch to RS Deer Ranch and branding all their whitetail deer by the name "CAJUN".

In 2009 The Malonson's hired Dr. James C. Kroll, Ph.D. aka "Dr. Deer" to guide them in producing a typical line of deer for their bucks to reach 220 typical inches at 2½ years of age and breaking 260 typical as mature bucks. In order to accomplish this incredible goal, The Malonsons purchased a group of does and bucks from Texas Breeders that is known to produce huge typical frames.

The Malonsons built a State-of-the-Art Whitetail Deer Facility. Their breeding pens are specially designed with a 30 foot outer fence (complete separation of native deer from breeder deer) in order for our herd to be classified as Bio-Secured. Using Natural and Artificial Insemination (Vaginal AI and Laparoscopic AI) breeding. Combining the best traits of time tested lines to achieve the most elusive prize in the deer industry, the Malonsons' goal is "Typical Perfection". RS Deer Ranch has two Closed whitetail herds. Texas Animal Health Commission classified one herd for 2 years CWD "level A" and the second herd for 7 years CWD "level D". Plus all of our deer are DNA certified.

In 2011, the Malonsons established a trophy whitetail deer hunting operation. Our hunting operation is designed to accommodate all hunters offering opportunities for a lifetime hunt.
