Sign in to contribute

Collingsworth County occupies the northeast corner of the Texas Panhandle where the Rolling Plains break dramatically into the Red River drainage, creating cedar canyons and brushy draws that harbor white-tailed deer and Rio Grande wild turkey. This overlooked county offers some of the best break-country whitetail hunting on the Panhandle fringe, with low pressure and strong deer numbers in the rough terrain. Grassland ranches and cultivated creek bottoms round out a diverse and underutilized hunting landscape.

Terrain & elevation

Rolling shortgrass plains transitioning to deeply cut Red River breaks with cedar canyons, red clay walls, and brushy draws. The terrain shifts dramatically from flat upland pastures to rough riparian breaks along the river corridor.

Hunting pressure

Low — remote location, lack of public land, and limited awareness among metro hunters keep this county underutilized.

Tags & permits

Standard TPWD hunting license with deer tags. Rolling Plains antler restrictions apply.

Species & seasons

Rio Grande wild turkey follow the breaks and timber along the Red River draws and can be outstanding in the canyon country. Sandhill cranes and waterfowl cross the county during migration. Dove hunting in crop fields near the creek bottoms is popular locally.

Highlights

Cedar canyon and Red River breaks whitetail in a low-pressure Panhandle-edge setting; underappreciated break-country turkey hunting with minimal competition.
