Deer Population near Uniontown

Any first hand knowledge of how the current population is?

Used to be high

Like the peoples

I don’t think the population is that dense necessarily. Most of that land is wide open pasture or row crop. Not a lot of cover. Now, if the particular piece of property HAS cover the population should be good. The genetics in that area are good though so your chance to take a nice buck is above average.

I guess i could clarify. South of Uniontown, between it and Safford, but closer to Uniontown, but in the more timbered areas

Yeah, we got some tracts there - better than average for sure. Not what it once was, however.

Them deer's over at the Footwashin'.

I’m sure it’s some of the best deer in the state, if I had to guess.

Depends on the specific location. If it’s timberland then it should have a good population of deer..

Not sure about union town but there’s something in the water in safford because I’ve seen some absolute giant deer come out of there

No kidding, some of the biggest deer I’ve seen were killed between Bogue Chitto and Westbrook. Fine area.

Yeah, VERY familiar with that area. But dont have any experience over towards uniontown.

There are about a dozen high fence operations in Safford these days.

Yeah the place im looking at butts up to one.

I don’t get that, that area has the soil and genetics to grow giants without the aid of a fence. I have a good friend who has some land there. It use to be farmed but once farming died out he let it go to overgrown pasture land. Hardly any trees beside giant cedars. That overgrown pasture land/ natural regrowth is thick and the deer love it. There’s bunch of deer on his place.

I'm about 6 miles east of Uniontown. Good population with a lot of nice deer.

We have friends who have a big, family farm in Safford and that place is run over with deer. Lots of em.

PM sent

Good pop and usually good genetics them prairie deer get big

Since you live in Huntsville now I bet we have the same friend. I have hunted on that farm a time or two.

We have some family land south west of Uniontown..

Worst wreck I ever saw was a couple miles east of Uniontown on Hwy 80. Two carloads of blacks, prolly a dozen folks, hit head on. The responders had a long row of dead folks laying uncovered right off the pavement when we drove by. I threw a perfectly good cheeseburger out the window after we got by that carnage.

Some of the best dove shoots I ever went on were on the Cobb place just north of uniontown. Big lake below their camp and wheat all around it. Tons of birds
