480A in Wayne County (Iowa) available for hunting lease. Located in Zone 5. Prefer to lease for year - all deer seasons (including January 2014 High Power anterless), fall turkey, spring turkey, dove, coyote, etc. Lots of deer and turkey.
Currently 300A corn, 60A CRP and 120A timber/pond/bottoms. Creek bottom and rolling hills. Lots of funnels and deep bottoms that hold big deer. Easy access - just off of pavement (no gravel required)! Approximately 70 miles South of Des Moines.
Enough land/locations for 6+ hunters.
Annual lease: $5,000 OBO.

I would like to know more about the options for a non-resident on this opportunity...
I have the bonus points to draw the deer tag, and the time off to utilize the other potential hunting.
Share some info Sean, I know you know what's up!

I still have access to private ground here in SE Iowa (about 15 minutes from lee and Tiffany actually), but I am not guaranteed that year to year.
I would be interested in aerial photos, amenities, etc. landowners that border the property, any issues there? Any trespassing issues?

Ebby, I'm interested, depending on some of the previous questions. I would also have to figure put driving distance, finances, time away, etc.

If it's close to Lee & Tiffany,i'm in ! No, Lee and Tiffany do not live in Zone 5. The Kisky's do, however. Zone 5 is all together a fabulous zone to hunt. I would also love some more info, such as aerials and past harvest information. This sounds like a great deal for a few guys going in together if the OP is the owner and this is not a sub-lease.

It is not a sublease, this will be the only hunting lease available for this property. Two 140 class deer and one 170 class were harvested this year. An aerial picture can be viewed on the Craigslist ad: http://desmoines.craigslist.org/spo/3491663002.htmlIt also has tons of turkey running around.

Hey guys.... this is NOT my post, but since a couple of u have asked, i will reply. (i am Sean)
Yes, i got another nice one (179), seems like i either go 170s or 200, someday i will find one in the 180/190s.
AS for knowing whats up...nope. I just know the area is a good area in general. I live and hunt in zone 3 and so i am unfamiliar other then just in general. I dont know the ground or the OP here so i have no dog in this fight. I have passed it on to a couple folks i think will be interested.
As for nonresidents....bow hunting is about a every other yr or so game. Shotgun/muzzleloader hunters seem to have better odds at drawing, but nothing is guranteed. With the EHD that took out 40-45,000 deer in our state this yr i am gonna to be intersted in what regualtions the state does to make changes. The herd was decreasing some the last yr or two, but this was a MAJOR hit for the western part of the state as my area had about a 65% reduction due to EHD....very sad. Found dozens and dozens of dead bucks/deer. As many of u prob know, it was the death of what will be the #2 all time iowa buck that was found by macedonia, iowa. Scored 281 gross 273 net.
Anyways...im off subject some but yes, i think this area in general is a good area but again i can NOT speak to anything in detail. I am just a Iowa resident trophy hunter and i dont go outside my area to hunt much as i have been doing pretty well here for the last 20 yrs. For those in Iowa without much ground to hunt....well, this would be great. Just not sure one would want to take 4-6 trohpys off a 480 acre yr after yr or it would be dry quick....IMO.
Good luck to the person/people who obtain this. Will be interesteing. Good luck and good hunting.

I hadn't heard actual numbers as to our deer loss this year but from what I have seen on the farm here I was guessing about 50%. That 65% number is from the DNR? I do hope the eastern half of the state was not hit as hard as we were here.
