Notes from the landowner

Dale Branch Creek is a 20-acre private hunting property just south of Scooba in Kemper County, Mississippi, tucked inside a large block of mixed pine and hardwood timber. The creek winds straight through the property, creating a natural travel corridor that wildlife use to move through the surrounding woods. Gun season here is a quiet, still-hunt-only affair, and with just one hunter or party booked at a time, every bit of the creek bottom and timber is yours.
Mississippi’s gun season gives you two long windows to work with, that is nearly seven weeks of rifle hunting to pick from, through the heart of the Mississippi deer season. As the woods thin out and pressure builds across the region, deer lean hard on the thick pine cover and the creek corridor to move unseen, and that is exactly where you will be waiting.

Gun season is either-sex on private land, so you can hunt for a mature buck or take a doe.
Bring a portable stand or ground blind, set up on the creek, and take it with you when you leave.

Game and habitat information

This property sits in the southern mixed oak-pine forest of east Mississippi. Loblolly and shortleaf pine cover the higher ground and give deer thick bedding and security cover, while oaks and hickories grow on the richer soils. Dale Branch Creek ties it all together, giving deer a natural route to travel between cover and food. When the hardwoods drop acorns and hickory nuts in the fall, deer key in on that mast. Focus your setups where the pine uplands meet the hardwood creek bottom, and on trails that parallel or cross the creek. Deer numbers are high across this area, and the surrounding timber means animals are moving onto and through the property throughout the season.

Harvest Reports

After your hunt, you will be sent an automated Harvest Report. To assist Infinite Outdoors in maintaining the quality of properties - and continue to put conservation at the forefront - we require that the harvest report be completely filled out and returned. Failure to fill out the harvest report within 2 weeks of the hunt taking place will result in a $25 fine. If you are unsuccessful in filling your tag, Infinite Outdoors still needs to have that information provided to them. This is how we will make changes to future year's harvest quotas and continue to be the most well managed access and conservation platform in the country.
