This hunting lease is leased and not available.
This farm right here is the reason you become a wall-hanger member. Welcome to this pristine 88-acre hunting lease located in southeast Knox County. The property offers a perfect blend of diverse landscapes, making it the ideal haven for deer. The current owner no longer hunts. However, he has tried to make this farm the best hunting farm he could. He has established a sanctuary, a trail system throughout the property, and has done a select harvest of walnut trees and left the tops laying. This spring he will be planting trees, such as persimmons, oaks, etc. The couple of food plots he has will need work, but no doubt can be revitalized. The deer sign was incredible, as it completely littered the entire forest floor. There is a creek that meanders through the property providing a key water source for the deer, especially during the pre-rut / rut. While walking the property, we jumped anywhere from 15 to 20 deer. It seemed like every 5 minutes or so, we both were saying, look at those deer over there. In the photos you will see a white diamond plate, these signs mark the sanctuary he has established. The yellow line represents a deeded easement where you will access the farm. If you are serious about having the opportunity to harvest a mature IL buck, in my opinion, this farm can provide you with that opportunity.
