1,571 +/- prime acres in Coahoma Co., MS, one of Mississippi’s finest waterfowl and trophy deer farms is now available. Bowman Delta Farm includes 1,426 +/- high fenced acres located 3 miles west of Clarksdale, MS and 3 miles east of the Mississippi River levee. Property details consist of approximately 928 +/- acres of mature hardwoods (with the last timber harvest prior to 2002) and 442 acres of cropland (252 irrigated). 268 +/- acres of cropland were leased for commercial farming in 2023 @ $200 ac., providing income and an excellent food source for the waterfowl and deer. 190 +/- acres are enrolled in the Clear 30 Conservation Reserve Program providing additional income and enhancing the habitat for the wildlife. The primary wildlife focus is on waterfowl and whitetail deer, however, there are many management techniques implemented to benefit the wild turkeys, doves, rabbits, shorebirds, and songbirds. A visit to this property quickly reveals the intensity of wildlife management. Also, various ages of timber exist. Additionally, over 70 acres of annual winter and summer food plots are maintained. Wildlife openings are created throughout the property. The habitat is diverse and fragmented creating an abundance of edge. Approximately 35 acres of permanent water exists on the property and controlled winter flooding will result in about 300 acres of surface water. In addition, there are over 6.5 miles of 8 ft fencing, 20+ food plots, 15+ controlled waterfowl impoundments, 7 irrigation wells (1-2500 GPM, 5 -1500 GPM with 1 electric @ 600 GPM) with an excellent interior road system creating this hunting paradise. Bowman Delta Farm has a 5-year duck harvest average of over 400 ducks per year. For the past 18 years, Wildlife biologist William McKinley has been managing this farm and has created an absolute hunters' paradise. With a low deer density and a goal of 1 adult deer per 12 acres, this practice produced several Boone and Crockett Class Bucks with three harvested grossing over 200 + inches. The BDF deer herd is native only and has never had any improved genetics or deer imported. The lodge features 9,800 sq ft with 6,500 sq ft of heated and cooled living space. 10 bedrooms, 8 bathrooms, 3 large family dens, kitchen, bar area, shop area, processing and mud room area, 30ft x 20 ft ATV storage area, and carport. This lodge was custom-built to accommodate a large family and guests while making it functional for hunting as well. Approximately 145 +/- acres is outside the high fence of which 23 acres have been precision leveled for cropland and waterfowl habitat. A portion of the property (1400+/-) is protected by a Mississippi Land Trust Conservation Easement which allows for managed timber harvest, commercial farming, and recreational uses. BDF is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own a premier recreational property. Please give us a call today! |
