Sign in to contribute

Baylor County lies in the Rolling Plains of northwest Texas, where mesquite-grassland flats, red-dirt breaks, and the expansive Lake Kemp reservoir define an excellent multi-species hunting landscape. White-tailed deer are the primary target in the creek drainages and brushy draws, while Lake Kemp provides some of the most productive duck and goose hunting in the region. Mourning dove and Rio Grande turkey round out a year-round hunting calendar that rewards dedicated sportsmen willing to make the drive to this remote northwest Texas county.

Terrain & elevation

Rolling Plains with red clay soils and caliche, mesquite-grassland flats, cedar breaks in the upper Brazos River drainage, and Lake Kemp reservoir with associated wetland margins.

Hunting pressure

Species & seasons

Duck and Canada goose hunting on Lake Kemp is a regional draw; mourning dove outstanding in milo and sunflower agricultural fields; Rio Grande wild turkey in mesquite-cedar breaks; feral hogs year-round.
