Dan Skuta, Former Bengals Player - Managing a Successful Ranch

Former Jacksonville Jaguars linebacker Dan Skuta currently owns and manages a 700-acre recreational ranch – one that offers both hunting parties and corporate gatherings the opportunity to experience the many facets of a real-life Texas ranch.


And as ranch owner, Dan Skuta – who spent four seasons with the Cincinnati Bengals – knows well the challenges that come with managing a guest-friendly ranch environment. Building and maintaining a successful recreational or “dude” ranch involves:

  • Setting up adequate accommodations, those which will house and feed large groups of people comfortably throughout the duration of their stay.

  • Planning activities, such as riding horses, cookouts, overnight campouts and others that provide entertainment and deliver a real-life ranch experience. 

  • Planning meals well in advance – something that provides you and your staff the organization needed to please guests and keep them fed consistently and efficiently.

  • Having a “Plan B,” such as backup activities and contingency plans should something go wrong.
