Sign in to contribute

McPherson County sits in the heart of central Kansas where productive agriculture and scattered CRP tracts support both deer and upland birds in a classic mixed-bag setting. Whitetail deer inhabit the creek drainages and shelterbelts that break the otherwise open agricultural landscape. Pheasant hunting draws dedicated upland hunters each fall, with CRP fields and grain stubble holding birds well through the season.

Terrain & elevation

Gently rolling central Kansas plains with the Smoky Hill River influence; sand hills south and west of McPherson; mix of irrigated farmland, dryland wheat, and CRP

Hunting pressure

Moderate — central location and good road access make this reachable from Wichita and Salina

Tags & permits

Over-the-counter; no antler restrictions

Species & seasons

Highlights

Central Kansas location offers a genuine mixed-bag hunt combining whitetail, turkey, and pheasant in a single county
