Planning a hunt near Register? Think of the Bulloch County hunting land as two layers: where public access exists, and who owns everything else. In this Bulloch County guide: state sources for public ground, using the parcel viewer for boundaries, and getting landowner permission the right way.
Getting started with the Bulloch County hunting land
Near Denmark, start with Georgia Department of Natural Resources, Wildlife Resources Division for public areas, including wildlife management areas and other access programs where they exist.
Opening the official parcel viewer
Your first stop is the Bulloch County ArcGIS parcel map; it maps every tax parcel around Portal and Ogeechee River. When a rural tract has no street number, pan along the nearest road until the lines appear, then click inside the one you want, which applies near Ivanhoe as much as anywhere. If the land is near Register, the record panel normally shows the owner of record, acreage on the tax roll, the parcel number and often a sale date.
Taking the map into the field
Most viewers work in a phone browser, handy when you're parked on a road near Denmark, so load it before you lose signal. A screenshot of the parcel near Register with its ID keeps working without signal.
What the map can't tell you
For property near Ivanhoe, listed acreage is an assessed number; just a licensed surveyor sets the real corners on the ground. Around Register, records update in batches, so a deed recorded last month might lag behind.
Parcel lines for hunters
Private boundaries come from the Bulloch County ArcGIS parcel map, with owner names for tracts near Brooklet.
Getting answers from the right desk
Questions about value or the owner field for land near Adabelle belong with the county Board of Tax Assessors, the office behind the parcel record. Questions about what you can build around Ogeechee River are for the local planning and health departments, depending on whether the land is inside town limits.
Aerial scouting
On the aerial around Statesboro, travel corridors and edges stand out; then confirm whose land each feature is on.
Asking for permission
The parcel record near Denmark gives the owner and a mailing address; ask early and be specific.
Recorded documents worth pulling
For anything that matters, get the recorded deed from the Clerk of Superior Court; the viewer just points to it, which applies near Adabelle as much as anywhere. Long-held tracts near Hopeulikit can sit on many deeds, and a title company is worth hiring on a real sale.
Regulations to check
Check Georgia Department of Natural Resources, Wildlife Resources Division for seasons and licensing, and know your state's trespass rules before hunting near Register.
Safety and courtesy
Respect livestock and crops around Statesboro, and carry the owner's contact info; it keeps permission coming back.
Next door to Bulloch County
Bulloch County borders Bryan County, Candler County, Effingham County, Emanuel County, and Evans County, all with their own assessor records. Acreage along the edge near Brooklet can be split in two county records, so open the neighboring map as well. If the land is near Portal, our state page lists each neighboring county map for Georgia.
Sections, lots and bearings
Rural deeds near Ivanhoe commonly use metes-and-bounds descriptions, listing bearings, distances and landmarks. Town lots near Ivanhoe refer to a recorded plat, making them easier to find. Write down the legal description for the tract near Ogeechee River before you request a deed or survey.
Places you'll see on the map
Statesboro is the county seat, which is where the courthouse records live. You'll also find Brooklet, Portal, Register, and Adabelle, each with its own cluster of lots. Around 84,327 people call Bulloch County home (Census estimate, 2023) on some 676 square miles. The county was organized in 1796, and some chains of title near Adabelle are long. Features like Ogeechee River make handy reference points on the map.

Not a survey. County GIS and tax parcel maps are assessment and planning layers. They are not a substitute for a recorded plat, deed, or licensed survey, especially for fences, setbacks, or boundary disputes.
