Hoke County anchors the heart of North Carolina's Sandhills, where longleaf pine flatwoods give way to sandy creek bottoms loaded with white-tailed deer. Wild turkey thrive across the open pine savannas, making this one of the better turkey counties in the southern Piedmont fringe. Sandhills Game Land and proximity to Fayetteville draw a loyal crowd of local hunters each fall.

Sandy longleaf pine flatwoods with scrub oak understory; creek drainages lined with hardwood bottoms; agricultural fields at woodland edges

Hunting pressure

moderate — Sandhills Game Land sees steady use from Fayetteville-area hunters; quality private leases tightly held

Tags & permits

Species & seasons

Longleaf pine turkey hunting across Sandhills Game Land; deer in sandy creek hardwood bottoms adjacent to Fort Liberty
