About this unit
AI-compiled · sourcedGuadalupe County straddles the I-35 corridor between San Antonio and Austin, where the Hill Country edge meets the Blackland Prairie and the Guadalupe River cuts through limestone terrain supporting excellent white-tailed deer hunting. Despite growing suburban pressure from both metro areas, the county retains significant agricultural and ranching land with quality deer herds and exotic species operations. The Guadalupe River corridor offers some of the most scenic hunting terrain in the region within reach of San Antonio.
Varied terrain from limestone Hill Country cedar and live oak hills in the west to Blackland Prairie and improved pastures in the east; the Guadalupe River and its cypress-lined banks bisect the county creating prime riparian deer habitat

Guadalupe River corridor provides scenic Hill Country hunting experience within range of San Antonio; high deer densities despite suburban proximity; exotic species operations add variety to hunting programs
