If your vision of a top-notch hunting farm includes features such as secluded food plot openings, creek bottom habitat, diverse terrain, fertile soils, dense bedding areas, and hidden crop fields, then this farm south of Nevada, Missouri is worth a closer look. The combination of terrain and dense cover along the county road means good protection for the deer and turkeys that roam the property, but at the same time affords easy access. You won’t have to move very far into the cover to begin finding plenty of deer sign, and it’s apparent that the local whitetails spend a lot of time moving throughout the farm. Mixed age oaks and hickories dominate the upland timber, which rolls down into creek bottom habitats comprised of maple, ash, pin oak, and sycamore, with an understory of soft mast trees like pawpaw and mulberry. But trees aren’t the only thing providing the whitetails with groceries, a 33 acre tillable bottom field offers a chance to plant row crops and bring in some cash rent, as well as attract game. Pleasant Run Creek winds through the south end of the tract, creating travel corridors and a protected bedding area, as well as roost sites for wild turkeys. Two ponds provide additional water and recreational potential, and rifle hunters will appreciate the long, commanding views along the power line right of way at the farm’s north end. This farm’s potential for attracting and holding game has transcended time, as evidenced from the arrowheads and other artifacts found in the creek beds and along trails and fields. And if you’re interested in a base camp, there is an older mobile home with utilities that could fit the bill.
