Deer Hunting Northern Zone In Georgia Closes Heading South Still An Option Even For Public Hunting
You can still head south hunting.
The southern zone is open until January 15, and are still some options available to do some public hunting.
There are some great places open to public hunting if you want to head south hunting and get in some last minute deer hunting. Looking at the regulations I see several places that are open to public hunting. I counted 28 places open to public hunting until January 15 if you want to head south hunting.
Here is the list I came up with in alphabetical order. I hope I didn’t miss any. Looks like there are some great deer hunting options still out there. Look how many acres are still open, I bet there is little pressure this time of year.

The weather was unseasonably warm and although I didn’t see many deer it was a great couple of days being able to hunt with my dad and our good friend Randy. I don’t get the chance to spend the night at deer camp very often, so when I do it is relaxing and fun. My dad harvested a couple of does Monday evening. We have decided to take out quite a few does due to high number of does in our herd on our property. I think it will defintely help the buck to doe ratio. The whitetails are really coming to the food plots now and I am still holding out hope of getting a shot at a nice buck even though it is going to be tough. I plan on going back deer hunting as soon as the weather cools off a bit.
