Description
Whitetail Properties Real Estate is honored to bring to the market this world-class whitetail hunting and recreational farm situated in the iconic, Loess Hills of Western Iowa. Welcome to Hogback Hills.
This farm has an ideal 1/3 to 2/3 ratio of production/tillable acres to timber/habitat acres that savvy combination farm buyers are looking for. These tillable acres and established alfalfa fields are a core destination for deer in the area. It would be common to see +30 deer pour into these fields from your stand on any given night. The ridges and hillsides that make up this farm are a combination of mature hardwood timber, native grasses and red cedar thickets. This combination makes for exceptional cover for the thriving deer herd and abundant wild turkey that call this farm home. The expert land managers at Land & Legacy have developed a full-scale habitat management plan specific to this farm that transfers to the new owner. The current owners and land stewards have been executing on this plan for the last two years and that work has already started to pay off. The land improvements include:
Timber Stand Improvement (TSI) to enhance bedding cover
Establishment of sanctuaries near food sources
Year-round food source availability through establishment of food plots and increase in natural forbes and nutritional browse
Reduction of red cedar thicket monoculture
Strategic use of fire to re-establish native grasses and forbes
Increased habitat and cover from old field management
The hilly topography and mature timber offers ideal funnels for up close bow hunts. Shotgun and Late Muzzleloader season hunting will be amazing due to the large centralized standing grain destination food plots and the comfortable elevated Redneck & Dillon blinds that come with the farm. Blind locations and entry and exit routes are available for all wind directions, which is key to low-pressure and successful hunting of mature whitetails. There is a rustic A-frame cedar cabin that has electricity, water, 1/2 bath and wood wood-burning stove. This is the perfect-sized cabin to use as your base camp during your rut-cation or off-season farm work weekends.
It’s hard to truly appreciate this farm without seeing it in person. If you’re looking to own one of the best hunting farms in Western Iowa, that’s set up and ready to hunt for the 2024 season, then give the listing agents and Land Specialists a call to schedule a private showing. Showings are by appointment only.
