Hardcore deer hunters, here is your chance to own a small block of timber that all of the local bucks like to cruise! This property has frontage along Waltersburg Road giving you the chance to build a hunting camp. Utilities are in the area but you may be better off running an off-the-grid type system for power and water. By setting up your camp in the very most northeast corner of the farm, you will not disturb the hunting any at all. And you only have to buy 55 acres to have access to over 1,800 continues acres of the Shawnee National Forest. To me this is the ideal pre-rut and rut farm. Hundreds of acres of crop fields surround so you would be setting up in a natural funnel area (creek) and have a watering source for the big deer to stop and drink. Another thing that makes this farm so cool is that you are guaranteed permits every year because you will own 40+ acres. Give up the lease...
