Whether you're a seasoned hunter or a beginner, owning your own deer hunting farm can be a dream come true. But before you start setting up blinds and baiting areas, it's essential to ensure that your land is properly prepared for hunting. That's why we sit down with a veteran deer hunting farm owner, Skip Sligh, to discuss the top things you need to do before opening up your farm to hunting.
In this conversation, we dive into the importance of timber sampling, the benefits of planting food plots for deer, and the ideal forests to grow for optimal hunting conditions. So, if you're looking to maximize your chances of a successful and rewarding hunting experience, Skip shares essential steps to take on a scenario of a 50-acre deer hunting farm. Skip is the owner of Iowa Whitetail. He purchased his first land when he was 22 years and what he has done over the last 20 years is interesting and inspiring. He has bought and sold over 200 farms and built a special track in Iowa.
