This hunting lease is leased and not available.
Farms just don't get any better than this! Located in Knox County, IL, right smack-dab in the heart of big buck country, this property has it all. With timber, food sources, water, CRP, and bedding areas, offering every ingredient needed and many say required to hold and grow big deer. The west side of the property is bordered by the Spoon River, adding even more appeal, as there are big mature bucks that are harvested along the Spoon River. For over a decade and a half, the CREP tree program has created a top-notch habitat, making this farm a natural home for local deer. The trees are now big enough to hang stands, and the undergrowth provides excellent cover and bedding. Everywhere I looked the deer sign was abundant; well-worn trails, old rubs, and plenty of fresh tracks. The crop damage alone is a sure sign that deer are here. This place is impressive, plain and simple. The location, the photos, and the aerial view speak volumes about the farm's potential. If you are a serious hunter looking to harvest a mature Illinois buck, then do NOT let this farm slip by!
