Our Deer Herd
The state of Kansas and its wildlife managers had the foresight decades ago to implement a plan that was the
key to making Kansas the trophy hotspot it has come to be known as. Through strict managing of the deer harvest and superior genetics, along with the rich, productive soil of our native farmlands, Kansas has become a trophy hunter's prime destination. We at Kansas Trophy Whitetails take a very limited amount of hunters in any given year, and we strictly manage our thousands of acres of privately-owned ground to ensure our clients have the best hunting opportunities for trophy bucks.Our Hunting Areas
We have prime land in Unit 8 of North Central Kansas. This unit has very little public hunting ground. We have leased some of the best hunting ground in our part of the state.
Our ground consists of creek bottoms and rolling farmland. The land has crops such as corn, soybeans, wheat, and alfalfa planted on it. We have hardwood timbers also, with several types of acorns that deer love.
How We Hunt
At this time of the year, trophy bucks are very sedentary; they do not have any reason to travel much. We scout hard in August and find the food sources that the bucks are using. Most of the time it's either lush, green soybeans, alfalfa, or volunteer wheat fields. We position our stands either between the bedding-to-feeding areas or just inside the edge of cover at a feeding area to give our hunters the best chance at harvesting a trophy buck. Most hunting at this time of the year is done in the early morning or late afternoon, depending on what conditions Mother Nature gives us. Still-hunting can produce opportunities also.
