Food plots planted and growing

This years harvest has been planted and is growing extremely well. This crop base, made up completely to feed big bucks and Illinois whitetail deer for bow hunts on our private land, has sprouted perfectly and is looking great. The fawns have been born and are beginning to walk along our property next to their large doe and big buck parents – aging great for the upcoming season.
Plan your Illinois bow hunt on our private land today, before all of the weekends are full! Packages start at $500 per person, and our land is also available for turkey hunts.

On November21, 2009 this HUGE whitetail buck was taken on the best Illinois deer hunting land. Take a look at the rack on this enormous whitetail and contact us if you are interested in hunting on private Illinois land.

Stay tuned for pictures of a 25# turkey taken recently, along with pictures of trail patterns for the deer and our planting schedule/crop list.
New Planting on Illinois Hunting land
Posted by: | Comments
We finished planting 8 acres of soybeans the first week of June that will remain all year as a food plot for the whitetail deer. They have already started eating it. We also mowed the property and planted two clover fields (around 1 acre each) the 2nd week in May. Both fields are doing fine, and as you can see from the pictures, clover has already come up. Since we are really the only food plot in the immediate area, hunting, especially archery hunting, for whitetail deer should be terrific this year. We have seen lots of deer on the property since May, and some Bucks that had some good horns growing. The two deer in the pictures looking at you are 160-170 class Bucks enjoying our food! Because we have continually nurtured the property, we have seen lots of deer beds and wild turkeys while mowing the property. If you are interested in hunting whitetail deer in Hancock County, Illinois, this coming archery season, you can contact us as indicated on our home page.
Deer hunting with an Eagle
Posted by: | CommentsThis video is amazing. It was not taken on our land, but it is pretty interesting to watch…thought you might like it. I have never seen an Eagle hunt a deer quite like this. Nature sure has a way of doing things…
