About this unit

Sign in to contribute

Comanche County harbors some of the most rugged and distinctive terrain in Kansas, with the Red Hills providing cedar-choked canyons and dramatic buttes along the Oklahoma border. Whitetail deer hide in the cedar breaks and creek drainages, while Rio Grande turkey thrive in the open cedar-grassland mix. This remote, thinly populated county sees minimal hunting pressure and rewards hunters willing to work the broken country.

Terrain & elevation

Red Hills (Gyp Hills) define the county — red cedar-choked canyons, gypsum outcroppings, and red dirt creek drainages flowing south toward Oklahoma. Rugged broken terrain contrasts sharply with the agricultural plains to the north.

Hunting pressure

Low — sparsely populated, remote location, and rugged terrain limit hunter numbers significantly.

Tags & permits

Over-the-counter; standard Kansas deer license.

Species & seasons

Rio Grande turkey abundant in the cedar-grassland mosaic; occasional mule deer sightings in far western reaches of the county near the panhandle transition.

Highlights

Red Hills cedar canyon whitetail hunting; one of the most remote and pressure-free hunting landscapes in Kansas.
