Income Producing Playground for the Well-Rounded Outdoorsman
Imagine making that last turn onto the county road leading to your hunting property and you stop in disbelief because it looks like the neighbor’s cattle got out and are all over your wheat field. As you come to a stop and pull up your binoculars you find that those aren’t cattle scattered across your gorgeous green wheat, but whitetail deer! As you pull over to the side of the road, shut off your truck and start to get a headcount, you hear the gobble of a hot Rio Grande tom courting his hens as they work down the edge of the wheat along the south treeline right past your blind. You turn back to continue counting the deer and the crow of a rooster pheasant in the wheat stubble on your property catches your ear and again you lose count. Just as you get your focus back on all of the deer, the whistle of a bobwhite quail interrupts your concentration and movement caught by your peripheral ...
Imagine making that last turn onto the county road leading to your hunting property and you stop in disbelief because it looks like the neighbor’s cattle got out and are all over your wheat field. As you come to a stop and pull up your binoculars you find that those aren’t cattle scattered across your gorgeous green wheat, but whitetail deer! As you pull over to the side of the road, shut off your truck and start to get a headcount, you hear the gobble of a hot Rio Grande tom courting his hens as they work down the edge of the wheat along the south treeline right past your blind. You turn back to continue counting the deer and the crow of a rooster pheasant in the wheat stubble on your property catches your ear and again you lose count. Just as you get your focus back on all of the deer, the whistle of a bobwhite quail interrupts your concentration and movement caught by your peripheral vision reveals a covey of quail running around your truck and across the road. That is exactly what this piece of property has to offer, in addition to having Arkansas River frontage in an area well-known for lights out, late season duck hunting.
Having 146 +/- total acres and 90 of those in tillable farm ground with a local tenant willing to pay a premium rent of $45 per acre, this parcel and the way it lays out has so much to offer the avid outdoorsman and still provide a substantial revenue stream. The tillable farm ground is a long, east-west 90 +/- acre area that is split up by railroad tracks with cover on both sides of the tracks, a large stand of native grasses in the middle, and it is bordered along the entire south side by a wide, thick stand of mature timber. That area alone can provide hours of upland hunting to a couple of hunters and their dog. The 55 +/- acres on the west end of the property stretches from north to south for a half mile and includes a seasonal creek that feeds south into the Arkansas River and is thick with mature timber and cover, providing a great habitat for whitetail deer and roosts for the resident turkey population. The property is covered in deer sign, scrapes, rubs, and trails that cut across it in every direction.
The property includes a stretch of Arkansas River frontage, providing access to the great late season duck hunting this area is known for, not to mention some great channel cat and flathead fishing in the summer. With Quivira Wildlife Refuge to the south, Cheyenne Bottoms to the north, and a collection of large sandpits just down the river from the property, it’s no wonder the duck hunting is so good along this stretch of the Arkansas River in the winter!
The 90 +/- acres of tillable ground is comprised primarily of class II Waldeck fine sandy loam and class III Imano clay loam. There is a permanent ground blind in the timber that stays with the property and a few other tree stands and feeders that would be negotiable if desired. There is a bridge constructed of 4” oil field pipe across the seasonal creek on the west end of the property, allowing access to the far west side in wet seasons. Rural electric and Sprint fiber optic run down Avenue P along the north side of the land. The property is located just 3 miles outside of Raymond, Kansas, 20 miles from Great Bend, 42 miles from Hutchinson, and 92 miles from the Dwight D. Eisenhower Airport in Wichita, Kansas.
