About this unit
Sign in to contributeUnion 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.
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
Limited public hunting land; some Holly Springs National Forest-adjacent tracts exist in the broader region; the majority of hunting is conducted on private land through permission or lease arrangements
moderate — New Albany and proximity to major highways increases hunter density relative to more remote northeast counties; rut period sees noticeably elevated pressure
Over-the-counter statewide tags; no mandatory antler restrictions; north zone season dates apply
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
Classic Tallahatchie River tributary bottom deer hunting; strong agricultural-edge rut movement in a northeast Mississippi hill-country setting
