About this unit
AI-compiled · sourcedCoke County anchors the Rolling Plains of west-central Texas near San Angelo, offering classic brushy hill-country-edge hunting for white-tailed deer and Rio Grande wild turkey on red-clay terrain cut by cedar and mesquite breaks. The county surrounds Lake E.V. Spence, one of the few public water features in this part of Texas, and working cattle ranches dominate the landscape. Deer densities are solid and the turkey hunting in the cedar draws is underappreciated.
Rolling red-clay hills and breaks covered in cedar, mesquite, and scattered live oak. Oak Creek and the Colorado River arm feeding Lake E.V. Spence provide riparian corridors with denser vegetation and reliable deer movement.
Low to moderate — the rural location and limited public land keep pressure low outside of designated Corps areas.
Standard TPWD hunting license with deer tags. Rolling Plains antler restrictions apply.
Rio Grande wild turkey inhabit the cedar breaks and creek drainages and receive relatively light hunting pressure. Dove hunting in crop stubble and around water sources can be excellent early season. Feral hogs are present throughout.
Underrated Rio Grande turkey hunting in the cedar-draw country; combination deer and turkey opportunity on working west Texas ranches near Lake E.V. Spence.
