Whitetail Properties Real Estate is excited to present this farm that offers the coveted 50/50 blend of tillable and timber. The best proof of what a farm can produce in the future is what it’s produced in the past. Check out the trail cam photos! The number of mature bucks moving around in daylight on this farm is impressive, indicative of low hunting pressure. The property is very nice and roughly half timber and half tillable. There are approximately 47 tillable acres and 43 timber acres broken up nicely. The tillable acres are very productive and have an average CSR2 of 56.6, which is high for a recreational farm. The owner is renting the tillable for $170/acre on approximately 43 acres. About one acre in the NW corner is planted as a cereal grain food plot. This would be a great archery farm and a phenomenal late-season one due to the amount of timber around it and the secluded areas where food could be left in strategic locations. Much of the immediate area is timber or CRP, meaning standing crops will be a magnet for deer during the late season. The majority of the cover on the farm is south-facing which will help hold deer on the property late season.Trail camera history shows plenty of mature bucks moving in daylight, emphasizing the seclusion and lack of pressure in this area. It’s accessed from the east side by a level B road, but there is gravel to the SE corner where the entrance is. There is a nice pond that’s approximately 3/4 acre located in the center of the property, where owners have caught massive Bass and Crappie! If you’re a buyer who wants to own income-producing land that hunts tremendous, contact the Land Specialist Ben Harshyne to schedule a private tour.
