A whitetail paradise along the banks of the Arkansas River!!

This 320-acre farm is situated in Ford County with the Arkansas River creating the eastern boundary of the property. The river bottom consists of a great amount of cover, including giant mature cottonwoods. The pasture adjacent to the river bottom has been grazed but if let go would become a dense mecca for bedding deer. The rest of the property consists of waste high to head-high CRP grass.

As you drive down the dead-end road on the north side of the property, you can see the beat-down trails from the deer heading through the CRP field to the agriculture fields. The deer are definitely using this farm as their bedroom. The shelterbelt, which runs the length of the southern border, provides great bedding and there are trails that run throughout. Mature cottonwoods, locust, osage orange, and cedar trees make up the majority of this shelter belt, with plenty of room to hang stands within and ambush deer coming and going to bed. As the shelterbelt moves east towards the river, there are two groves of trees that expand out into the native grass. These two groves of trees have low-lying areas that hold water and seem small from the aerial but you can get lost in these overgrown acreages. They both hold deer and a lot of them. There is an old gravel pit at the west end of the property that has a mature grove of trees surrounding it. The pit holds water and is a great little waterfowl hole. The other wildlife on the farm also uses this as a watering hole. There were signs of turkeys, pheasants, and quail. This would be a great spot to build a little cabin for all of the hunting trips you will be made to this property. The Arkansas River also holds ducks in its meandering banks. The CRP contract expires this year so as the owner you will be able to renew the contract for some extra income or let it expire and plan out your hunting management plan for the future. A little bit of everything for the all-around hunter!
