Randolph County had the highest kill count for the 2023 Shotgun Whitetail season, and this property just outside of Chester above the Mississippi River Valley stacks up! Whitetail or Turkey this one will deliver!
An abundance of potential for the deer/turkey hunter. There could be building lots along the blacktop road or a nice area to build a hunting cabin as there is electric and water at the entrance to the property. Access is made easy with a paved county road that borders the north side along with a written easement to cross the field to get to the back side of the property.
The layout of this property allows for numerous setups. Existing setups include 2 shooting houses, a few 2-man buddy stands and several 20-ft ladder stands. These will be included with the property. The property holds natural features designed to hold wildlife, with optimal cover, very thick bedding areas, water sources, oak trees and ridges that turkey roost on every spring. There are ag fields nearby on all sides of the property along with several small food plots and apple producing trees.
