Here is a very solid hunting lease in Jackson County, IA – Zone 8. While walking this farm it was evident the deer sign was everywhere, as you'll see in the photos. This 880-acre property has timber, brushy draws, pasture, row crops, water, and plenty of bedding areas. With access from all directions, getting to and from stand locations will be much easier, as you can enter based on the wind direction. On the far north side of the farm you will see a lake and a big block of timber that adjoins this lease. That area is all no hunting around Leisure Lake. The farm has rolling terrain, including the ag fields, which allow you to move without being detected or bumping deer. You can drop into one of the draws in the ag field and walk straight to the timber. The landowner's son shared some trail cam pictures, and there are definitely some big bucks on this farm. The landowner has also seen several good bucks over the years while tending to his cattle.
There are around 100 to 120 head of cattle on the property, but they've been there for years, and based on the size of this farm and the deer sign, they shouldn't affect the hunting. The way the land lays out, it felt bigger than 880 acres while walking it.
If you're looking for a chance at a mature Iowa buck, this is a great spot. There's also a 4-bedroom, 2-bath house on the property that the landowner is willing to rent while you're hunting. You and the owner can work out the details. It doesn't get much better than hunting big Iowa bucks and having a place to stay right on the farm.
