MINNESOTA DEER HUNTING...

Wiscoy Valley Hunts is a farm owned and operated by myself, John Broers. I have been managing my property for large bucks since 1998. I am located in Winona County, about 17 miles south of the city of  Winona in Southeast Minnesota. The land consists of 1365 acres. There are more than 875 acres of hardwoods, mostly white and red oak. The remainder is mostly tillable with corn and soybeans being the main crops. A variety of food plots are planted and maintained each year. Hunter satisfaction at a reasonable price is my goal. Hunters arrive with hopes of a memorable experience. I want you to leave Minnesota with a desire to come back another year.

My whitetail deer hunts are fair chase and unguided. I will do my best to help you get acquainted with the lay of my land and game movement. If needed, I will assist in retrieving game. You are encouraged to hunt bucks that score over 120. I will charge a $500 fee for antlered bucks scoring less than 120.  I have ladder stands you can use. However, most hunters prefer to use their own. Don't forget your safety harness.

LODGING...

I do offer lodging if you are interested. It consists of a mobile home I have remodeled to accommodate hunters. It has gas heat, gas cook stove and gas lights. The bunk beds have air mattresses. You should bring a sleeping bag and food. I will provide water and some cooking utensils.

If you prefer, Winona has several motels and restaurants to serve your needs. The nearest airports are located in Rochester (60 miles to the west) and Minneapolis (about 2 1/2 hours to the north.

SPRING TURKEY HUNTING...

Minnesota's spring turkey season begins in mid April and is split into 6, five day seasons and 2, seven days seasons. The southeast corner of the state has the highest population of turkeys. My unit, 501, has the highest population of turkeys in Minnesota. I charge $250 per person per season. The use of my mobile home is included if it is available.

HUNTING REFERENCES...

Some hunters are interested in knowing their chance for success. That is a difficult question to answer. There are so many variables to consider. An individual's success depends upon the time of year, the weather, his or her level of skill and persistence, and of course, a certain amount of luck is always involved. I will say this, I have never met a person who was dissatisfied with what they found here and most of those who were here last year reserved time slots for 2010. Upon your request, I will send you a list of last year's clients (not just a few select references).

DEER HUNTING TAGS...

Rifles are not legal in my area. Nonresident deer tags are $141.00 and can be purchased over the counter. To save time and confusion, I advise hunters to order it through the mail by calling 1-888-646-6367. You can view Minnesota's website at www.dnr.state.mn.us.
