AGFC Names Jackson Point 2024 Arkansas Deer Club of the Year
Jackson Point Hunting Club in Phillips County has been recognized as the 2024 Arkansas Deer Club of the Year by the Arkansas Game and Fish Commission (AGFC).
With over 40 years of providing hunting memories to its members, the club’s strong legacy of wildlife stewardship and responsible use of natural resources earned them this prestigious title.
Nestled in the Mississippi River Batture, the 8,000-acre property is primarily timbered, with active timber harvesting maintaining a variety of forest ages to support deer and other wildlife. Additionally, 350 acres of food plots are planted each year to provide year-round nutrition.
The club’s commitment to data collection, habitat management, and deer harvest is exceptional. Members conduct a trail camera survey to identify individual bucks and estimate doe populations, ensuring well-informed harvest decisions.
AGFC Biologist David Graves, who has worked with the club since 2017, praises their dedication to quality data collection, which includes both biological and observational data.
The AGFC presented the award during the 2024 Landowner Conservation Awards Banquet, highlighting the club’s outstanding efforts in managing their deer herd and contributing to sustainable wildlife conservation in Arkansas.
