Hunted this morning in the snow. No deer but I saw 3 turkeys about 75 yards away.
Then I went and walked the 85 acres I am thinking about buying. It is deer heaven. 5 acres in crp along a creek, about 75 acres of HILLY woods, I mean some serious hills here, and a 5+ acre field of brush and saplings. There were deer tracks everywhere in the snow, and we jumped 5 or 6 out of the brushy field. Lots of turkey tracks too.Then we walked down a ridge and there were 11 beds in the snow on it. It only started snowing at midnight. I am putting a contract on it tomorrow. This is my dream property. Here are a couple of aerial photos with the prop lines.
I am already planning on where to put stands.
