Sign in to contribute

Concho County occupies the rolling limestone hill country at the junction of the Edwards Plateau and Rolling Plains, where the Concho River winds through cedar-oak brush and open grassland. White-tailed deer hunting is exceptional here, supported by abundant native forage and working ranches that see minimal hunting pressure. Wild turkey roost along brushy creek drainages and dove hunting along grain fields and river bottoms draws hunters each September.

Terrain & elevation

Rolling limestone hills blanketed in live oak, cedar, and mesquite with open grassland flats; Concho River and its tributaries carve fertile bottomlands through the county.

Hunting pressure

Low. Sparse human population, vast private holdings, and the absence of significant public land keep hunting pressure well below statewide averages.

Tags & permits

Standard Texas license with 5 white-tailed deer tags; antler restrictions apply in this zone. Many ranches participate in the Managed Lands Deer program for additional flexibility.

Species & seasons

Dove hunting along grain fields and river corridors is a local tradition. Feral hogs are numerous and huntable year-round with landowner permission. Rio Grande turkey numbers are solid in riparian corridors.

Highlights

Classic Edwards Plateau deer camp culture on large private ranch operations; Paint Rock pictographs near the Concho River add a scenic backdrop to hunting trips.
