Property Description
This 235 acre property is about the closest thing you will find to a sportsman’s paradise in these parts. 235+/- acres of well-managed Longleaf Pine and beautiful natural hardwood giants. The property has been meticulously managed for trophy deer and turkey. The owners are on a 5-year-old trophy or better program for their bucks, taking one or two per year at most. This area has been a constant top-five producer for the Alabama Record Book Bucks program since its inception. The seller and the neighboring property owners have worked very hard to create a spectacular population of turkeys, and their work has paid off. Between the timber management, regular controlled burns, and the quality food plots, they have created an exceptional wildlife habitat. The property offers all the cover needed for bedding and breeding, with minimal travel between these areas and all the high-protein food they can eat. Heavy predator control minimizes pressure for raising offspring. There are several different food sources, including sawtooth, red, and white oaks, persimmons, blackberries, and muscadines, to go with around 20+ acres of year-round food plots and protein supplements to keep the game well fed. There are a couple of year-round spring-fed creeks on the property providing good water, and several places that would make for great spots for fishing lakes. There are a few places where the creeks will back up into the timber in the wintertime, allowing for the opportunity to get a few shots at some ducks. There are some wild quail and tons of doves, as flat as it is with a plantation cut, this could be a real wing shooter’s heaven. The property is just minutes outside of Hamilton, Alabama, making it a quick trip to Muscle Shoals, Huntsville, Birmingham, Tupelo, and Nashville. You are close to the Tennessee River and Pickwick Lake and the Bankhead National Forrest, offering you all kinds of options for recreation and sightseeing. Whether it is a solid investment in managed timber income or purely recreational property, this one is a can't-miss must-see. Additional acreage available
