This 50-acre property has some CRP, creek bottoms and hardwood ridges. Pasturing does happen on the property, but cattle are rotationally grazed between properties 11460 and 11461, so depends where they are at as to when on this property. Cattle tend to be off all 3 of these properties in October. The timbered ground has plenty of browse and cover and appeared to me to not be over pastured and cattle must tend to focus on the open areas around the creek bottoms on southern side. No cattle were present at the time of my inspection.
This is an archery and muzzle loader deer hunting lease only. Spring turkey hunting might be allowed with permission from landowner, but he tends to work with the DNR to provide youth turkey hunting options for hunters. I understand we are already into the 2023 archery season, but at the time of this listing, the best weeks are still a month or so away and I want to stress that securing this lease in 2023 is as much about possibly having the option to renew again in 2024 as it is the hunting this fall. I have several other leases in this part of Grant County and hunters are taking some real giants in this area of the state.
Early season archery hunting rights end the Sunday prior to opening day of rifle deer hunting season.
The blue line on the aerial is an easement that leads to the CRP field on the western side. Another access is on the southern side, and I have picture of this in the listing.
Landowner wants to secure all rifle deer hunting rights including any doe only seasons should DNR established after the traditional 9-day rifle hunting season. Landowner would not hunt the youth rifle season in October. As mentioned before, he has over 1000 total acres and may not even hunt this property with rifle but wants to retain those rights. They are very busy farmers and typically get only a few days to rifle hunt each year.
Camping is allowed for hunting-related purposes with permission from the landowner. Respectful use of ATV for hunting related purposes is also ok. No real area for food plots but might be able to do a few smaller plots in the CRP depending on landowners contract with USDA. Check with him on if this is allowed or not. The landowner would like to meet with you initially once you secure the lease.
