Howard County
Combination Hunting Farm In Howard County
County Road 408 Fayette, MO 65248
Description
This 84+/- acre Howard County property has several features I look for in a quality hunting and recreational tract. Moniteau Creek and Hungry Mother Creek both run through the farm and merge near the northwest corner, creating a unique layout with water, timber, creek-bottom cover, and natural travel corridors. From a hunting standpoint, the creek systems immediately caught my attention. The combination of water, timber, field edges, and changes in cover creates several natural funnels and transition areas. These are the types of locations I like to study when determining stand placement and how deer may travel through a property. Approximately 10+/- acres are tillable, adding an agricultural component and seasonal food source while leaving the majority of the property in recreational habitat. The tillable acreage could remain in production or potentially be incorporated into a broader wildlife-management plan. Another feature I really like is a secluded open area tucked back into the property. This area has potential for a food plot surrounded by cover and away from the more open portions of the farm. Locations like this can provide an owner with additional options when developing a hunting and habitat-management strategy. What stands out to me about this farm is how much diversity is packed into 84+/- acres. It is not simply a block of timber or an agricultural tract. The property combines two creek systems, timber, tillable ground, secluded openings, field edges, and creek-bottom habitat. The convergence of Moniteau Creek and Hungry Mother Creek is one of the property's defining features. Beyond providing a year-round water feature, the creeks help shape the layout of the farm and create natural corridors through the surrounding cover. For someone looking for a manageable-sized hunting and recreational property i-- Howard County, this farm deserves a closer look. With 84+/- acres, approximately 10+/- tillable acres, two significant creeks, timber, and secluded food plot potential, the property provides a strong foundation for hunting, recreation, and long-term wildlife management.
