RyanH Posted October 12, 2005 Report Share Posted October 12, 2005 Guys i have the oppurtunity to buy 28 acres, in PAYNE CO, Oklahoma. the acreage is on the river bottom. If you live in OKlahoma Panye county is a good county for deer. I was wonder what your thoughts are on this Small of an acreage would be good for deer hunting, and also deer management. What are your thoughts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AaronS Posted October 12, 2005 Report Share Posted October 12, 2005 Re: What do you guys think? With that size acreage, it is going to depend greatly on how the neighboring landowners manage their herd. People have had great results with smaller acreages than that.

huntn4bucks Posted October 12, 2005 Report Share Posted October 12, 2005 Re: What do you guys think? In addition to my main hunting property, I have a small 20 acre spot that's close to my house. I bet we've killed over 50 bucks off that small piece of property simply because there's virtually no hunting around it. Like the others said, it all depends on the bordering land owners how well the hunting may be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RyanH Posted October 12, 2005 Author Report Share Posted October 12, 2005 Re: What do you guys think? The 28 acres is solid woods. and it would be basically for bow hunting. I would also live on the 28 acres. There is a farm house on the other side of the road that has a couple fields other then that! There are no houses or anything!

VermontHunter Posted October 12, 2005 Report Share Posted October 12, 2005 Re: What do you guys think? I don't see where you could go wrong..... A nice place to live and with a few well placed plots to hold some pass through deer for bow hunting,,, I'd definately consider it... Good Luck Ryan...

dogdoc Posted October 12, 2005 Report Share Posted October 12, 2005 Re: What do you guys think? Ryan--like you said Payne County always produces great deer--every year. Twenty eight acres doesn't sound like a lot but there are lots of deer killed on smaller properties and deer don't know property lines--heck on my 80 acres I only hunt about 20 acres of it. The hardest part is trying to have a sanctuary and being very careful not to over pressure the deer. Like I told you before--River bottoms have the richest soils and usually produce the biggest bucks! good luck with your decision. todd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have 60 acres plus exclusive rights to the adjacent 35 acres of which 30 is solid hardwoods. Due to no control by the shooters in the woods on the properties behind us I have only become more and more frustrated with trying to manage our property.
