Sign in to contribute

Tate County sits in the North Mississippi Hills where gently rolling hardwood terrain meets the Coldwater River drainage and surrounding row-crop agriculture. White-tailed deer are the primary quarry, with respectable wild turkey populations inhabiting the mature hardwood hollows and creek bottoms. Private land dominates the landscape, and lease hunting is common throughout this county near the Tennessee border.

Terrain & elevation

Gently rolling hills with hardwood-dominated ridges and creek bottoms along the Coldwater River drainage; mix of agricultural fields and mixed pine-hardwood forest typical of the North Mississippi Hills

Hunting pressure

moderate — proximity to the Memphis metro area draws weekend hunting traffic, but the county remains manageable outside peak rut weeks

Tags & permits

Over-the-counter statewide tags; no antler restrictions under Mississippi regulations; county season dates follow the standard north zone schedule

Species & seasons

Wild turkey occupies mature hardwood ridges and creek-bottom timber and is the main secondary species; early-fall dove hunting is popular on agricultural fields

Highlights

Coldwater River hardwood bottom deer hunting with strong agricultural-edge rut activity; north Mississippi hill-country setting with understated quality bucks
