Hunting on the ORR
Deer, waterfowl, and turkey hunts, managed by the Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency, are held annually on the ORR.
—
ORWMA deer hunts are limited to 1050 hunters per weekend (600 archery & 450 shotgun/muzzleloader permit holders), preselected in a quota drawing. Hunting is allowed from 30 minutes before official sunrise until 30 minutes after official sunset.
Greenways in designated hunt zones are closed to the public during scouting times and on hunt dates (signs to that effect will be posted on the greenways). More information is on the Deer Hunt website.
Other Information
TWRA holds events just for kids throughout the year. See this website for details.
