Welcome
to Mid West Sporting Properties, LLC.
It
is our goal to offer you the finest trophy whitetail and
turkey experience available. Everyone knows the place to hunt
giant Whitetail bucks is the Mid-West. In Missouri, getting a tag is
easy. They are available over the counter - no draws, preference
points or lotteries to worry about.
Most of our properties are located in Northwest
Missouri, just south of Ringgold County and Decatur County Iowa, in
the secluded town of Hatfield, Missouri.
Generally speaking, these properties are right on the Iowa line, so
its like hunting the best of two Mid West states all in one hunt!
Further, for you rifle enthusiasts, Missouri is one of the Mid West
states which allows use of high powered rifles - so use the
weapon of your choice!
Missouri
also offers some of the finest turkey
hunting available in the U.S.

(as defined above) basis
unless other arrangements are made in advance.

All
hunts are self guided hunts. However a hunt administrator will be
available to show you the farm location and help ensure your hunt goes
smoothly. Lodging is included with your
lease.
We will have a large number
of tree stands hung and ready upon your arrival. They are
visibly marked and easy to find.
In addition, some hunting gear is available for your use while
on the property. Bring your own food, water, and
refreshments.

These are all privately owned exclusive, low pressure farms.
There will be a few rules
for some of the properties involved mainly concerning trophy
restrictions, and woodline access, and what we consider minimum gear
requirements (Scent Control). However, there are no
trophy fees again for 2008, but we have implemented a penalty
system in that if an undersized buck is killed, you will check and tag
the deer, but you will forfeit your right to keep the deer.

About Us
We are not Outfitters and we are not Guides.
Further we have no intention of becoming either of these. We're
from the east coast (Maryland and Delaware) and love to bow hunt
the mid-west.
We own several properties as well as the lodge
and we're always looking for additional leases. However, we
do not gun hunt, so we lease out the firearms seasons for our
properties and leased properties to guys that like to gun hunt.
.
We simply use the income from these hunts to help offset the cost of running the lodge, leases and
paying for food plots enjoyed during all of the fall deer and
turkey seasons. If you are budget minded (as we are) this
might appeal to you as you can save allot of money hunting with us
verses a guide, be on farms with much less pressure (vs with a guide) and be
on farms where the owners put lots of money into growing big bucks
for themselves. Further, you don't waste any time
hanging stands, scouting, wondering where to go, etc as this is
all done for you. Poster size aerial and topographic photos
with stand and camera locations are shown for your quick access
inside the Lodge.
So why allow gun hunting at all? When
rifle season starts in Missouri, its still bow season (and peak
rut - Nov 11th) elsewhere and we head out, from Missouri, to bow
hunt other states (including home). We know if no-one is on
the farm, eventually other hunters (trespassers) will move in and
hunt. Your presence ensures this does not happen. It
helps us maintain our herd population and - yes, we're interested
in killing giant bucks - even if you kill them, at least we get
paid for it.
