This expansive unit is located in the southwestern corner of the state and supports a robust deer population. It features a mix of agricultural lands and undeveloped areas, predominantly consisting of rolling grasslands and wooded bottoms. The highest concentrations of whitetails are typically found near riparian zones and agricultural fields. Multiple record-book bucks have been documented in this unit across various counties, with Furnas County, situated on the far eastern side, being particularly notable for its entries.
