Jeff, I have an 8" well drilled 220' deep with a 10hp pump motor. My pump is not at the bottom of the well since I have so much water. To give you an idea of water supply here there are artesian wells around a 1/4 miles from my well. I built this 3 acre pond on sandy soil with probably less than 10 acres of forested water shed and 2 acres of grass land water shed. I built a house on the property and piped my house runoff water to the pond. Pond in its deepest area is around 22'. The well is around 100' upland of the pond. BTW I estimate a well like I had dug will be near 15k in cost today. I hade it done for about half that.
EDIT: Also you check for a tax break for digging a high volume well. Here right now the state will allow you to deduct the cost of you tax responsibility for an agriculture well. A 15k well here would get you about a $750 tax refund / break
