About this property
A playa lake sits inside these three hundred and eighty acres north of Lockney, with a transmission line along the southern edge and FM 378 running past. It shares a map sheet with Bluestem.
The card is long for a High Plains tract: dove, early teal, quail to the end of January, pheasant, High Plains mallard, Western Zone geese, sandhill crane in Zone A, and rabbits, hares and coyotes alongside. The whole area closes for the seven days before Floyd County opens pheasant. No smoking on the premises, and no coyote hunting with dogs.
