What an eventful year 2017 was! We had 11 members and their guests on New Year’s Day and stayed busy the rest of pheasant season. In August, at the 19th Annual Shoot-For-Life, we were able to raise more than $3500 for the Alpha Family Center of Cedar Springs. In September, we had the most well-attended Pig Roast/Potluck in years to start the ’17 – ’18 Pheasant Season. In October, the sale of the Haymarsh Hunt Club, Incorporated was finalized. We are now the Haymarsh Club, LLC., operating for the owners, Fourth Arrow Farms, P.O. Box 127, Belmont, MI 49306. We had youth hunts for PF, NWTF, DU and others. We hosted several benefit hunts for non-profits like Sportspersons Ministries International, Physically Challenged Bowhunters of America, and the Muskegon Hunters Safety group.
This year we’ll have three Snowbird Hunts – January 27th, February 17th and March 10th. These field hunts start at 9 AM and include five (5) pheasants per person and a soup & sandwich meal for $110. These are popular hunts, so call ASAP!

For Those of You Who Don’t Have Ten Friends, we’ll have a special “European” Pheasant Hunt on April 14th just for you. This is a “tower” shoot that starts at 9 AM, followed by a farm-style meal, then a walk-up hunt. Your $210 includes 10 birds and the meal. If 10 hunters aren’t signed up by March 25th, we’ll cancel. 2017’s TYWDHTF hunt had 21 hunters!
SNOWBIRD HUNTS
JANUARY 27th, FEBRUARY 17TH, & MARCH 10TH. 9AM $110
Since we don’t expect taxes and expenses to go down, we’re going to have to raise the price of birds. As of January 1, 2018, released pheasants will be $22 each. This change was not mandated by the new owner. Scratch birds will still be $10. If you book a January – April 2018 hunt before January 10, 2018, you will lock in the current $21 per bird price. If you have already booked a January – April ’18 hunt you will keep the $21 price. When we have booked the birds we’ve contracted for, no more will be available. Call ASAP!
THOSE OF YOU WHO DON’T HAVE TEN FRIENDS “EUROPEAN” PHEASANT HUNT
APRIL 14TH 9 AM $220
Please remember that we are no longer able to exchange cleaned and frozen birds for those you harvest. Please take that into account for future hunts.
Please DO NOT clean birds out in the fields. The bird parts left in the fields attract unwanted “hunters”. We have a well-equipped cleaning facility in the barn. PLEASE leave it cleaner than you found it!
AS ALWAYS PLEASE FEEL FREE TO CONTACT US WITH COMPLAINTS AND/OR SUGGESTIONS.
