This 43+/- acre tract in Franklin County sets up extremely well, offering a strong mix of timber, tillable ground, and water. The majority of the timber sits on the north side of the property, which should provide solid bedding cover and security. That block of timber connects directly into the tillable acreage in the center of the farm, creating a natural transition and travel corridor where deer should consistently move between bedding and food. The tillable ground should act as a draw for those deer. This area should also serve as a natural staging area where they will filter out of the timber just before dark and head to the ag field. On the southeast side, there is an additional block of timber that adds even more cover and creates another key travel route. This sets up well for several stand locations and gives you the ability to hunt different winds without over pressuring one area. Access from the east side is another advantage to this property. It allows you to get in and out clean without disturbing the core bedding area on the north end, which is critical for keeping deer on the property and hunting it effectively throughout the season. There are also two ponds on the farm that provide a consistent water source, especially during early season and into the rut. For 43 acres, this property is laid out right and hunts bigger than it is. The combination of bedding, food, water, and strong access gives you multiple ways to hunt it and the ability to stay on deer throughout the season.
