Since 2008, one of the original Quality Deer Management Association membersDoc Jonesand his family have built this completely turn-key whitetail hunting paradise known as Fox River Farm.This premier hunting property has an abundance of cover, water, edge, and food. It's very diverse, with hardwood ridges, native grasses, cedar pockets, brushy creek bottom, and tillable acres. Part of the farm used to be cattle pasture, but Doc has let it regenerate into dense thickets. This has resulted in amazing bedding cover for whitetails and nesting cover for turkeys.There is a home, guest cabin, and shed on the north end. There are seven beds, three full baths, and two kitchens - so it's set up well to host friends and family. The metal shed is large enough to hold all the equipment you would need to manage the farm, and a stocked pond next to it completes the turn-key experience.Food plots are important for year-round nutrition, but access separates good hunting properties from great ones like Fox River Farm. The plots and their blind locations were strategically designed to allow entry and exit without educating the deer.Trail camera and harvest photos show this farm undoubtedly hosts genetic traits that produce high scoring bucks, evident by their tall tines and heavy mass. The bottom line with any property is that the past indicates what it can produce in the future. Every whitetail enthusiast dreams of hunting the quality of bucks that have called Fox River Farm home year after year.
