Located in eastern Hancock County, just one-quarter mile west of the Hancock and McDonough County line, this highly developed hunting property offers the type of seclusion, habitat, and layout that serious whitetail hunters are searching for. Access is from the west and north via an easement roadway and river crossing on the Lamoine River, allowing foot traffic to approach different areas of the farm while adapting to changing wind conditions. The property's access and internal trail network have been thoughtfully developed to maximize hunting opportunities while minimizing disturbance to wildlife. Entering from the west, an established trail leads into the southwest corner of the property. From there, you can travel southeast to a small food plot before continuing up the ridge to a secluded clover plot tucked amongst the timber. Surrounded by thick bedding cover, this hidden destination plot is an excellent location to target mature bucks following predictable early-season feeding patterns on a cold front. The surrounding topography and cover create multiple stand locations around the plot for various wind directions. Heading north from the main entrance, the property opens into more than 13+/- acres of corn and milo food plots spread across four separate fields. These plots have been strategically positioned throughout the farm to provide attractive food sources during both the early and late portions of the season. Multiple stand locations overlook the plots, allowing you to take advantage of varying wind directions and changing deer movement throughout the fall. An additional hidden food plot in the northeastern portion of the property serves as an ideal staging or kill plot where deer frequently enter before feeding in the larger destination fields. The northern end of the property transitions into the Lamoine River bottom, where another secluded opening provides an opportunity to establish an additional food plot to further strengthen the property's food source on the north end with additional stand locations. The river corridor not only provides a year-round water source but also serves as a major travel corridor for deer moving throughout the neighborhood. One of the property's most unique features is the approximately four acres located north of the Lamoine River bordering Highway 336. In addition to providing another stand location, this area creates an additional access point that allows hunters to approach the property from multiple directions depending on wind and deer movement. A foot bridge currently provides access across the river to several stand locations on the northside of the farm. The bridge sustained damage during recent high water and will require repairs, but it offers a strategic tool to hunt the property with minimal pressure. The combination of diverse food sources, established bedding cover, mature hardwood timber, strategic access, multiple food plots, and the Lamoine River creates all the ingredients necessary to consistently attract, hold, and harvest mature whitetails. Situated in an area with a long-standing reputation for producing high-caliber deer, this property has been developed with hunting success in mind and offers opportunities that are increasingly difficult to find in Western Illinois. If you're looking for a secluded, turnkey hunting property with an ideal layout for pursuing mature whitetails, this Hancock County farm deserves a look.
