New Planting on Illinois Hunting land

By Mitch

dsc00424-300x225.jpgWe 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.
