About this unit
Sign in to contributeLincoln County straddles the transition between the Piney Woods and the rolling hills of southwest Mississippi, producing reliable deer numbers in a county that retains its rural hunting character. Mixed pine-hardwood forests and creek bottoms along the Bogue Chitto and its tributaries provide core habitat for deer and turkey. The county offers a classic south Mississippi hunting experience without the overhead of more competitive markets.
Gentle to rolling terrain with mixed pine-hardwood uplands, creek and river bottomland hardwoods, and scattered agricultural clearings
Mostly private timberland and farm leases; Homochitto National Forest lies to the southwest in adjacent counties and draws overflow hunters
Moderate — rural county with an active hunting community and manageable pressure levels
OTC statewide license
Wild turkey is a solid secondary species in the open pine and hardwood mix; hog hunting also widely pursued
Bogue Chitto corridor offers quality late-season rut action; transitional terrain means deer move freely between pine uplands and hardwood bottoms
