About this unit

Sign in to contribute

Union County delivers classic northeast Mississippi hill-country hunting with rolling hardwood terrain drained by Tallahatchie River tributaries and framed by scattered row-crop agriculture around New Albany. White-tailed deer are the primary quarry and the county holds solid turkey populations in mature hardwood ridges. Most hunting access comes through private landowner arrangements and leases, with limited public ground available.

Terrain & elevation

Gently rolling hardwood hills of northeast Mississippi; creek drainages feeding the Tallahatchie River headwaters provide bottom-timber habitat; agricultural fields around New Albany create productive edge habitat

Hunting pressure

moderate — New Albany and proximity to major highways increases hunter density relative to more remote northeast counties; rut period sees noticeably elevated pressure

Tags & permits

Over-the-counter statewide tags; no mandatory antler restrictions; north zone season dates apply

Species & seasons

Wild turkey is a notable secondary species with population in mature ridge timber; dove hunting on cut agricultural fields is a popular early-season pursuit

Highlights

Classic Tallahatchie River tributary bottom deer hunting; strong agricultural-edge rut movement in a northeast Mississippi hill-country setting
