About this unit
AI-compiled · sourcedUnion County is the smallest county in Indiana by area, tucked into the southeastern corner of the state along the Whitewater River drainage. The rolling, forested terrain differs markedly from central Indiana flat agriculture, and the river hollows hold good deer and turkey numbers in a compact landscape. Access is almost entirely dependent on private landowner permission, keeping hunting pressure low and quality high for those who secure it.
Gently to moderately rolling hills with mixed hardwood forest and agricultural fields along ridgetops; the Whitewater River and its tributaries dissect the landscape into huntable hollows and creek bottoms.
Low - the combination of small county size, limited public access, and sparse hunter population keeps pressure minimal throughout the season.
OTC statewide system.
Wild turkey populations are solid in the hardwood forest tracts; given the limited county size turkey range across much of the available habitat making them relatively easy to locate.
Whitewater River corridor creates productive travel lanes for deer throughout the season; low hunting pressure relative to deer and turkey numbers makes Union County attractive for hunters who can secure private access.
