Jasper Ave Lot#WP001 , Bloomfield, IA 52537(Davis County)

This farm in Davis County offers a perfect mix of creek-bottom timber and upland timber. The cover is extremely thick, loaded with security and serves as the absolute hub of whitetail activity in the entire area. The property is located approximately eight miles southwest of Bloomfield, 28 miles south of Ottumwa and about 110 miles from the Des Moines area.With the sheer amount of dense cover on this farm, adding a few additional food plots - of which there are plenty of opportunities - would really help hold the deer on your property till after shooting hours. There are excellent locations for smaller food plots with great access in and out of stands, along with several prime spots right in the heart of the property along the creek. These areas could offer exciting early-season hunts as well as incredible rut activity.Carter Creek winds its way through the heart of the farm, creating a setup that produces dynamite November hunts as traveling bucks move through the property from connecting cover to the east and larger timber to the west. The creek provides a year-round water source, along with two additional ponds - one on the north end and one on the south end of the property. Two nice Shadow Hunter blinds will stay with the farm.As it currently sits, this property has predominately been used as a late-season hunting farm, but with a little elbow grease, it could truly become a year-round whitetail mecca. With all the cover, it holds a tremendous amount of deer. An extensive amount of Timber Stand Improvement (TSI) work has already been completed, resulting in thick, high-quality cover throughout the forest floor. In addition to the excellent creek-bottom habitat, the north and south ends of the property feature a diverse mix of tree species including hickory, oak and locust, along with a fair amount of cedar providing valuable thermal cover during the late season.Looking at the surrounding neighborhood on a map, the cover may appear more scattered, but in reality, it isolates deer movement into the heaviest cover in the area - this property - making deer more huntable and providing excellent opportunities to harvest a true giant. The current owner has an excellent history on this farm, harvesting quality bucks and capturing trail camera images of multiple Boone and Crockett-class deer. Because this farm offers the best cover in the area and serves as the primary whitetail hub, it holds deer all day long and gives you the chance to hunt them - not just get their pictures after dark like a lot of properties.The property is extremely secluded, located at the end of a dead-end road with no roads bordering it, giving you a truly tucked-away and isolated feel once you arrive. If youre looking for a secluded hunting farm with a proven history, incredible cover and room to add your personal touch, this is one you need to see. Give me a call-Id be happy to show it to you.
