360 Sawyer Road, Sylvester, GA 31791 - Worth County

It is near impossible to find large contiguous acres in Worth County Georgia, Georgias number one trophy buck county, until now. Grey Hunt Farms is a 1,137 acre income producing farm with an intensively managed deer herd. The seller assembled the massive acreage in three separate acquisitions in 2007 & 2008 and immediately began intensive trophy buck management. In 2018 a year-round protein feeding program was implemented. Prior to 2007, most of the farm was in the Davis family for generations, who were quality land and wildlife stewards as well. The results of the years of trophy management and low hunting pressure are evidenced by the quality deer harvested and countless trail camera pictures. Grey Hunt Farms is turnkey and ready for you to take it from here.

A quick glance at the available color-coded timber and land use map shows the variety of habitat present on Grey Hunt Farms, which combined with excellent trophy buck management has resulted in one of the finest hunting properties in the best hunting county in the state of Georgia, Worth. One thing we have learned over years in management is timber type diversity mixed with agriculture is what deer and turkey and quail thrive in, and Grey Hunt Farms fits that description perfectly. An added bonus at Grey Hunt Farms is the mix of agriculture and various age classes of timber provides an ideal property income structure, through an annual farm lease, CRP longleaf payments, periodic timber sales, and longleaf straw income potential.

Unique to Grey Hunt Farms, other than having over 1,100 acres contiguous, is the linear shape making the farm feel and hunt even bigger than it is. And, as you enjoy the largeness of the property, minimal public road frontage and strategically planted CRP planted longleaf along property lines provide the best in seclusion and privacy.

Nearly centrally located on the property is an aesthetic lakeside camp featuring a 2018 4-bedroom 2-bath mobile home, and a 50x75 enclosed industrial engineered steel frame building on a concrete pad with three rollup doors. If your vision includes a cabin or lodge designed to your unique taste, the mobile home will make a great home during your personalized cabin or lodge construction.

Grey Hunt Farms has a healthy population of wild quail, which the owner does not hunt. A special area of Grey Hunt Farms known as pine island with gorgeous mature longleaf and wiregrass and pockets of red oaks makes for a great released or wild quail hunting spot. Throughout the property is abundant edge habitat and various timber types that hold quail as well. Quail hunting acreage can be increased now, as there are several nice pine stands ready for first and second thinnings.

Grey Hunt Farms is blessed with plentiful water resources including a 17 acre lake stocked with largemouth bass, frontage on both sides of Abrams Creek and Little Abrams Creek, two small ponds, several natural wet weather ponds, and several smaller creeks/drains. Just west of the property the Little Abrams Creek joins Abrams Creek, which feeds the famed Flint River located just 7 miles west of Grey Hunt Farms. Notable plantations along the Flint in the area are Red Oaks Plantation and Mercer Mill Plantation, and just a couple of miles north of Grey Hunt Farms begins the massive land holding, Aultman Forest.

A simple internet search of Worth County Georgia bucks pops up story after story of 200+ class bucks.

Search GON county rankings and you will see Worth squarely at the top year after year. Why? Superior genetics and like-minded landowners and hunters; plus ideal habitat with a desirable mix of agriculture and timber, good soils, abundant water, and good stewardship is why Worth County Georgia is the number one trophy buck county in Georgia. The superior genetics in the local herd are thanks in part to the deer restocking program of the 1950s when 124 deer were relocated to Worth County GA from Wisconsin by the Worth County Wildlife Club.
