Deer season in Mississippi for the 2024-2025 season will run from October 15, 2024, to January 31, 2025. The bag limit is two bucks per hunter, and hunters may use any legal hunting method, including firearms, archery, and muzzleloaders.
Deer hunting is a popular tradition in Mississippi, and it is a major economic driver for the state. The Mississippi Department of Wildlife, Fisheries, and Parks (MDWFP) estimates that deer hunting generates more than $1 billion in revenue for the state each year. Deer hunting also helps to control the deer population, which can damage crops and forests.
