Our service is private hunting land access, recommendations where to hunt and a lodging listing local to the lease land. Our product is habitat and in this case self guided quail hunts. 
Standing at one of the braches to this farm's waterways looking across to the main branch. The far tree line over the ridge at 1/2 mile distance is the property line. The tree line runs along the fence line. A grain crop farmer only, no cattle foraging. The right mixture of a variety of grass, brush and trees for quail nesting and winter over cover. 
Many of these waterway braches are typical of the crop fields in our three state region of Kansas, Missouri and Iowa. This one lease featured here is a 160 acres or a 1/4 section at 1/2 by 1/2 mile square. Just walking up one side then the other of the main drainage would be more than a one mile walk as it meanders through the farm. Hunting each of these fingers out and back will easily double that distance. 
Same landowner with another part of the lease, a 320 acre, or 1/2 section, 1 x 1/2 mile rectangle. Same type of drainage as on the earlier two pictures except this farm is enrolled into the filter strip program of native grass mixture between the grain crop field and the creek. This is a soil conservation program that does not permit haying or livestock forage. Prime nesting and winter cover habitat. 
The same farm as pictured immediately before and just before the upland bird opening weekend. From the road the filter strip is completely hidden from view. The standing corn gives much escape cover and the temperature is into the 70's. The sign on the power line pole is one of ours. This one unit that includes these two land parcels plus others of similar habitat adds up to 1,460 acres with a 2.4 gun limit for any give hunting day. It is within one of our better quail regions and receives that added hunter pressure management that the same hunter or group of hunters may not repeatedly hunt it and pressure the coveys to extinction. It is not hunted every day and should it become necessary we will close it for blocks of days to allow for recovery. That is the same practice for all acreage within our better quail regions. The management practice is good hunting to all throughout the season. There are plenty of units of land over a large area that all can hunt a different piece of land each time stepping from the truck, every day of every hunt and not have to cross their boot tracks. The added adventure of new land each day is preferable to hunting the same coveys each day. That is how we manage our self guided quail hunts. |
