Whispering Water Ranch & Resort
Deer Hunting
The ranch has been under strict game management since it was purchased in 1999. The ranch now includes 2000 acres of premium habitat including an expanded watering system, rotational grazing with cattle, food plots, and selective brush removal. The ranch conducts bi-annual helicopter surveys, cull buck and doe harvest to maintain a 1.2:1 buck to doe ratio, free choice protein supplementation, and importation of superior genetics. Successful management practices have exceeded our expectations as total B&C scores continue to improve yearly.

Welcome
I was fortunate to grow up 90 miles from here and started hunting with my father at the age of 4. While in high school, I started managing whitetail deer here in Menard County on a friend’s ranch. I have been interested and involved with raising trophy whitetail by developing pristine habitat and superior genetics ever since.
As my hunting interest grew and my skills developed, I had opportunities to hunt numerous other species. I have hunted all over the world on a variety of different hunts from do-it-yourself to fully guided. I know what is expected and know what it takes to offer a great quality hunt.
My family and I specialize in the individual or small group of hunters. We focus on quality not quantity. We take notice to every detail and can promise you a memorable experience. We do this because we love it!
