Cochran County Has Hunting for Deer, Pheasant, and Quail

The county sits in the Panhandle zone for mule deer and the North Zone for white-tailed deer and dove. Pheasant season typically runs in December and into January. Quail season runs from November through February. Exact dates and bag limits shift year to year, so check the TPWD Outdoor Annual before you go.

Most hunting here is on private land. You need landowner permission. A standard Texas hunting license is required, and some species need extra endorsements. Migratory birds require a federal duck stamp and HIP certification as well. Buy licenses at tpwd.texas.gov or at licensed retailers.
