About this unit
AI-compiled · sourcedOrangeburg County spans the upper Coastal Plain of South Carolina, where the North and South Forks of the Edisto River and the Four Holes Swamp drainage create an expansive lowland hunting landscape for deer and turkey amid agricultural fields and cypress wetlands. The county's flat terrain and productive soils support large deer populations on a mix of private farmland, managed timber, and limited public access. Waterfowl hunting draws hunters to the Edisto bottomlands and swampy drainages during migration.
Flat to gently rolling upper Coastal Plain with extensive agricultural fields, longleaf and loblolly pine plantations, and swampy river bottoms along the Edisto and Four Holes drainages with cypress-tupelo communities.
Moderate. Agricultural land and private timber companies control most access; pressure is highest during deer gun season near public WMA boundaries.
Statewide OTC system applies.
Waterfowl hunting on the Edisto River drainage sees wood ducks, teal, and migrating mallards. Turkey hunting is solid on agricultural edges throughout the county. The Four Holes Swamp corridor holds large deer on mostly private land.
Edisto River corridor whitetail and waterfowl hunting; large-body deer on productive Coastal Plain farmland
