Own a small tract of land where the big bucks roam! One quick visit to this farm and you will understand why the whitetails are using it so heavily. By definition, this farm is the “transition” from heavy cover to the north and ample food to the south. There is a 40-acre sanctuary bordering on the north owned by IDOT, which doesn’t allow any hunting. It is also VERY thick so the current owner has manipulated several areas along different travel routes to create additional food, as well as a strategically placed watering hole. His hope is to catch deer moving in and out of the no-pressure sanctuary. Oh, and come springtime this farm is loaded with turkeys. The owner tells me this farm serves as the nesting ground for the area hens. That means when we hit peak breeding season, this small farm will be loaded with anxious gobblers.
