Texas Deer Hunting by County

Texas reports its deer harvest by management unit rather than by county, so county-level harvest totals aren't available here. Public land and terrain are still broken out by county below.

See Texas season dates or the Texas wildlife agency for unit-level harvest data.

Texas publishes deer harvest by ecoregion / deer management unit, not by county, so these are statewide totals — not a county figure. Figures cover white-tailed & mule deer. Source: Texas Parks & Wildlife.
