140 Rd Burr Oak, KS 66936

Meticulously maintained, this roughly 258 acre pasture provides ample opportunity for the cattle producer and the sportsman alike.

Land

This rolling brome and native grass mix pasture is well watered with 4 ponds and Long Branch Creek, which appears to have multiple sporadic spring locations along it’s run through the property. Any deadfall from the trees that lie along the creek and fence rows have been piled, while fences and gates have been maintained annually to keep cattle contained. The owner has worked to keep the pasture clear of invasive trees and weeds which has led to optimized grazing opportunities and rates it at 7 acres per cow-calf pair.
The Pasture(s) can be ran as a contiguous ~258 acres or split off from the East ~73 acres:

The East approximately 73 acres has 3 ponds and the continuation a drainage coming from the N. This pasture also has a small catch pen set up.
The West roughly 185 acres has 1 large pond and Long Branch Creek. There is also an old windmill in this pasture that is non-functional.

A gravel road ends on the NE corner of the East pasture, and the pastures are accessible via dirt roads or through one of the multiple gate locations and can be traversed throughout.


Recreation

Versatile, this pasture offers the opportunity to hunt whitetail deer, quail, and waterfowl. The creek offers bedding areas along it’s South end and also serves as a travel corridor along with the many fencerows. Many deer bed in the grass pockets and waterways in the fields during the day and move at dusk to feed in the fields. Implementing a small food plot in one of the secluded areas along the creek could improve the hunting for deer and quail.
Several coveys of quail have been found in the pasture and it’s easy to understand why with the large expanse of diverse grasses and good grain food sources nearby which has also lent itself to the pheasants that have been seen in the area. The large stock dam has been observed to hold flocks of ducks and geese during their migrations.
