34.14± Acres Of Timber Hunting Ground In Franklin County
0000 Dry Rd Mulkeytown, IL 62865
Description
This 34.14± acre property offers an excellent opportunity for hunters looking for a manageable recreational tract with proven deer activity and strong surrounding habitat. Located in southern Illinois, this primarily timbered property combines mature buck history, strategic layout, and easy accessibility into a well-rounded hunting setup.
The property is heavily wooded and provides excellent cover throughout the tract. The timber creates a secluded environment that supports consistent wildlife activity and gives the property the feel of a much larger farm. Mature buck history has already been established on the property, showing the caliber of deer that utilize the area.
Road frontage and gated access make entry into the property simple and convenient. A maintained trail system runs throughout the tract, allowing easy navigation through the timber while still maintaining excellent cover and habitat. Whether accessing stand locations or simply moving throughout the property, the trails add major usability and convenience.
A valuable feature of the property is the 30-foot perimeter strip surrounding the field that will convey with the sale. This additional strip provides extra access opportunities while also creating more food and cover along the field edges. The added transition areas naturally complement the surrounding habitat and contribute to overall wildlife movement across the property.
The surrounding agricultural ground is another major advantage. Deer regularly travel between nearby food sources and the timbered cover on the property, creating consistent movement patterns throughout the tract. The combination of timber, surrounding agriculture, and natural terrain creates outstanding travel corridors and pinch points for hunting setups.
Elevation changes throughout the property add diversity to the layout and further enhance wildlife movement. The rolling terrain and natural funnels create multiple locations for strategic stand placements during different times of the season.
Despite its manageable size, this property hunts much bigger due to the surrounding habitat and overall layout. The timbered landscape offers privacy and seclusion while still being highly accessible.
The combination of mature buck history, gated access, trail system, surrounding agriculture, and natural terrain makes this property a strong option for hunters looking for a smaller tract that still offers serious potential.
Properties of this size with established access, proven deer history, and strong surrounding habitat are becoming increasingly difficult to find. This 34.14± acre tract offers a rare opportunity to own a manageable and highly functional hunting property ready to enjoy from day one.
