Located on the aptly named Whitetail Road, Tract 5 is a top-shelf hunting property offering return on investment as well. Totaling 118 acres more or less, this tract is composed of cropland, brome hay meadow, extremely heavy timber and plenty of wildlife habitat complimented by an existing foodplot and an area that would be perfect to develop another secluded food plot. Hunters will love the fact that the heavily timbered area consists of both mature hardwoods and conifers and is situated well away from the boundary roads. Due to distance and elevation change, it’s challenging to see into the heart of the timbered area, providing seclusion and privacy for resident wildlife. Near the center of the timbered portion is an already existing foodplot that is well-placed, being both near water and the natural food sources provided by the crop fields on the property. This area also features scattered cedars and an open area to the west that would make a great location for an additional food plot with plenty of privacy.
The northern and eastern portion of the property are a mix of cropland and brome hay meadow, providing additional browse and protein for the wildlife and some return on investment that can be generated through leasing to a local ag operator.
