Recreation

Broken Lance Ranch offers a variety of recreational opportunities.

Waterfowl frequent the ponds during migration months, providing excellent hunting opportunities.

The ranch is in an area of Kansas known for its whitetail deer population and large bucks. While deer hunting on the property could be enhanced with the addition of food plots, feeders, and blinds, there is great potential for outstanding hunting.

Despite the property’s excellent potential for hunting, there has been a lack of hunting activity in the past. This combination of stocked ponds, diverse wildlife, and excellent hunting potential makes Broken Lance Ranch a prime location for recreational activities
