Diversity

Mid-America Hunting Association Kansas hunting covers selected regions offering do it yourself Mule and Whitetail Deer; Eastern and Rio Grande Turkey; wild pheasant and quail hunting kansas huntingmaking Kansas the most diversified hunting state of the three where we maintain leases.

Within each of our Kansas hunting website sections there will be a habitat review including aerial and ground pictures designed to take away some of the mystery of what is to be expected. While we will do as good of a job as possible to get all acclimated to our self guided Kansas hunts there will always remain the adventure of going some place new. We make that adventure a better experience.

 

Kansas hunting lease acreage

Acreage alone is just one point on the range of decision criteria. Hunter pressure is another. This chart reflects the number of hunters that made at least one reservation to hunt within each discipline.

Note 1 Kansas upland bird numbers reflect an opening weekend, one weekend a year hunter that after this one trip frequently never upland bird hunts the remainder of the season. This upland hunting is heavily for pheasant. The numbers do not distinguish between quail and pheasant hunters or pointing and flushing dog hunters. Many duck hunters will hunt with retrievers before and after peak migratory bird periods and typically for pheasant.

Note 2: Reflects hunters that hunted a blind, wade-in area, farm pond, stream, crop stubble field or watershed lake for duck or goose. The majority of our waterfowl hunters in excess of 100 hunt our Missouri enhanced wetlands that are superior to our Kansas waterfowl hunts.

Find another private land hunt organization that openly advertises their hunter pressure. A hard challenge to fill. And, this data can be third party verified through discussion with our current members asking of their ability to hunt as often as they want and on their schedule.

Using the Kansas acreage map, the hunter pressure numbers and comparing both to the available season days gives good reference to the amount of time in the field any hunter or group can apply. The objective is never to have too many of any one type of hunter. It is by that means hunters are not stepping over boot prints, mixing their dogs with others, seeing stands with sunup, or having duck hunters setup too close. We, to be successful, must avoid all these public lands hunter mentalities.

Then include the intangibles of that we bring hunters in from 36 states with the non-resident hunter making up 44% of the total membership. The end result is the local member has the entire range of seasons and makes the most with weekend hunts keeping available vacation weekdays for family vacations. The traveling hunter will typically spend anywhere from one to two weeks a year in the field. The bottom line is that no member is ever denied a hunt and all will hunt without competition from other members.

Whitetail Deer

Kansas Deer Harvest

Kansas deer hunting options across multiple firearms and archery deer management units.

MAHA has leased land in 8 of the firearms and 5 archery Kansas deer hunting units and not all Kansas deer management units are equal in whitetail production.

The advantage we bring to the Kansas hunter is boots on the ground experience with every Kansas hunting lease we operate. That translates to the hunter having confidence he will be in the right Kansas region with a history of trophy deer harvest. For example a Kansas archery hunter will find what is frequently called bow huntable ground in some parts Kansas and in other Kansas deer hunting regions individual trees are landmarks and these areas are best suited for the rifle hunter. The Kansas muzzleloader hunter will have a separate September, pre rut season all to himself.
