Sign in to contribute

Calhoun County is one of the least-populated counties in Arkansas, a quiet expanse of Coastal Plain pine forest and bottomland hardwoods between the Ouachita Mountains and the Delta. Low hunting pressure and large undisturbed tracts make it a sleeper pick for hunters seeking solitude alongside solid deer numbers. The Ouachita River forms the eastern edge of the county and provides an important wildlife habitat corridor.

Terrain & elevation

Flat Coastal Plain with commercial pine forests, bottomland hardwood drainages along the Ouachita River and its tributaries, and minimal agricultural development.

Hunting pressure

Low - sparse population and large tracts of undivided timberland mean encounters with other hunters are uncommon.

Tags & permits

OTC statewide license; south Arkansas zone regulations apply.

Species & seasons

Wild turkey are present throughout with good populations in bottomland-upland transition zones; the Ouachita River corridor supports seasonal waterfowl opportunities.

Highlights

Among the lowest hunting pressure of any Arkansas county; undivided timber tracts allow hunters to move freely without boundary concerns on lease land.
