This hunting lease is leased and not available.
OWNER REQUIRES ADVANCED NOTICE OF BEING ON PROPERTY- CONTACT LEASING AGENT FOR THIS!!!
Evidently big racks are no big deal in this area. It seemed like every time I turned my head, there was a pile of them in a bucket, heaped up in a corner or scattered amongst the equipment. If those were mine, several of them would be hanging on a wall somewhere. Just ask my wife…
The quality is no surprise. The properties to the north are owned by the county and a private company, and the last I knew, neither allow hunting. That is great news for whomever leases this farm, as pressure should be minimal.
There is a lot more elevation change than one would expect by just looking at the aerial picture. Most of the good hunting spots are hidden from any house or road. The northwest 80 is obviously where most of your hunting will be concentrated. You will be very hard pressed to find a better spot than that back corner. The crops fall down into a little bit of hay ground with a woody ridge adjacent to the bigger woods along the creek. Plus, there is a tri-pod stand already set up for you (as always, use stands at your own risk).
The owner specifically stated several times not to overlook the east 80. He says he sees deer over there all the time. The rolling hills, washouts and drainages along the creek will make for lots of hiding spots and travel corridors.
This property has only been lightly hunted in the past. They owners decided to give up the hunting rights because they don't really hunt much, and can find other places to go if they decide to. All the houses on the property belong to a member of the owner's family, except the house in the north part of the east 80.
Cattle will be somewhere on the property year-round, but NEVER in the north 80, and by mid fall they will all be in pens on the south part of the property, and out of anywhere you would want to hunt.
Located just a couple of miles west of Atchison, and less than an hour from Kansas City.
