Sign in to contribute

Choctaw County in southwest Alabama is one of the state top deer counties, with the Tombigbee River corridor producing trophy-class whitetails in a landscape of bottomland hardwoods, Black Belt prairie soils, and pine-hardwood uplands. The county has significant public land through Choctaw National Wildlife Refuge and state forest holdings, making quality hunting accessible without connections to private timber leases. Wild turkey thrive in the mature bottomland forests and the overall hunting character is that of a lightly pressured, deep-south river county.

Terrain & elevation

Gently rolling coastal plain with extensive bottomland hardwood forests along the Tombigbee River; Black Belt prairie soils in northern portions give way to pine-hardwood mix in the south; productive creek drains and sloughs throughout

Hunting pressure

Low to moderate; sparse human population and large forested tracts keep pressure low across most of this remote southwest Alabama county

Tags & permits

Alabama OTC license with statewide deer tags; check ADCNR zone regulations for Choctaw County antler restrictions designed to improve age structure and buck quality

Species & seasons

Wild turkey thrive in mature bottomland hardwood forests along the Tombigbee River corridor; waterfowl hunting possible along river oxbows and backwater sloughs during migration periods

Highlights

Tombigbee River corridor ranks among Alabama top producers of trophy-class whitetails; Choctaw NWR provides free public hunting access in one of the state most productive deer counties
