Ring-neck pheasant hunting at a Big Creek Ranch Tower Hunt takes you back to old traditions. This type of hunting experience will challenge even the best of shooters as explosive, cackling birds fly hard and fast over each of the gunners. You'll find that the majestic scenery offered by the Big Creek Ranch's sprawling 269 acres of natural Michigan grasses and good old weeds, surrounded by cedar swamps and high timber, while accompanied by over three miles of creek and ditch banks make this the perfect pheasant sanctuary for your hunting thrills.
This truly is the hunt you've been waiting for! Whether you are a seasoned hunter with scores of stories and memories or a young novice hunter new to the experience of harvesting ring-neck pheasants, you will love this hunt! A Big Creek Ranch Tower Hunt consists of 10 individual shooting stations that hold up to two hunters a piece, therefore accommodating between 10 -20 hunters total. As the hunt unfolds, the shooters will be rotated throughout each of the stations to be sure everyone receives equal shooting opportunities. Remember to carry a lot of ammo with you because these "kings of the game birds" will be flying fast and hard and providing you with plenty of chances to unload your gun. This shooting adventure is something that cannot be described, it must be experienced! When the last of the birds has been liberated, you will break to relax while the guides gather up the downed birds and begin cleaning them. After lunch, the hunters are encouraged to perform a time-honored Michigan walk-up hunt with guides and dogs to round up the cunning birds that were savvy enough to elude your first shots. At the completion of the afternoon walk-up hunt, we'll reconvene around the campfire to share the day's great stories and divide all of the fallen birds equally.
