Tennessee · Deer · 2026-27

This is every Tennessee deer season and the day it opens, the whole state at once. A pin turns it into a day-by-day calendar for one deer management unit, with your own tags marked against it.

Tennessee deer seasons, 2026-27

Tennessee’s 2026-27 deer seasons run August 28, 2026 to January 10, 2027, and what is open on a given day depends on the deer management unit your stand is in. Drop a pin above and this app reads the deer management unit off it, then answers the rest from there — the dates, the legal arms, the bag limits and the shooting hours, transcribed page by page from the Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency digest. It is a planning aid, not the law: check the digest before you hunt.
