Terry Peer with Higgins Outdoors came to this property in 2024 and put his boots on the ground and his design to paper to forever change the habitat of this property. But rewind before that there was a long search by a longtime humble and wise hunter, a land professional and a habitat specialist from the area looking for natural features of the property that are irreversible with habitat improvement options, and when the boxes were checked and vision was seen Antler Ridge Lodge was born. Tagged Out Habitat Specialists were able to engineer the plan set forth by Higgins Outdoors. The plan called for aggressive TSI bedding improvements, the creation of ridgetop food plots, blind placement strategy, hidden access trail establishment as well as other informative directions including a soil management plan. The guys from Tagged Out did not cut any corners on making every improvement necessary, many months of man hours accumulated to bring this design full circle, this was no weekend hobby project, but truthfully one that took time, manpower and lots of heavy equipment.

Features that not every property can use to their advantage and say they have are the two way access this property offers, quality access as many hunters know become one of the most critical make it or break features of hunting a mature whitetail. While maybe just as or even more important are thermals, in the early season morning hunts are a bit more difficult and a lot of hunters rely on evenings to hunt mature whitetail, in evenings thermals rise, which play to your favor having ridgetop food and access. Favorable to conservation, this property had 3 past timber harvests: 20 acres in 2001, 32 acres in 2012 and 30 acres in 2022, leaving nearly 80 acres untouched with a timber evaluation of over 260,000 board feet of marketable timber standing with a value of approximately $150,000 stated by a professional. By nature's design when timber is harvested your first year of regrowth does not establish bedding areas like 10 years of regrowth does, each season brings a different level of green to your property and as regeneration evolves it is convenient to have over 25 years of this type of management already built into the design. In the center of it all this property features a ? acre stocked fishing pond for off season enjoyment. Also another hub to meet the needs of the wildlife having cover and shade around the perimeters of the pond there is noticeable past rubs and scrape lines in this area ensuring its use. The wildlife sign between deer and turkey are remarkable, and two years of consistent trail camera history dot the i on emphasizing the health of the herd. A total of 12 acres of food plots have been professionally planted with a variety of seasonal wildlife favorites. The property also features Five Elevated 360 Hunting Blinds, Three 1200 lb feeders and strategically positioned tree stand locations.

This one here is a bit different however, you might wonder why would someone take their time, money and effort to create such a masterpiece to not receive full enjoyment of their own.

He has a belief that Ohio can be a name amongst the headlines of the whitetail world, because it already is.
