2010 Michigan Pheasant Hunting Forecast
Forecast: Improved pheasant production was anticipated in Michigan from last year, though not enough to drastically alter the annual 100,000 bird harvest in the state. The most recent data shows that more than 50,000 Michiganders still pursue ringnecks annually. Season Dates: Varies, consult regulations Daily Bag Limit: 2 Possession Limit: 4 Field Notes: Upland enthusiasts should note this is the first time in a decade and a half that the state will have a sharp-tailed grouse hunt in a restricted area of the Upper Peninsula. Combine that with traditionally strong ruffed grouse and woodcock hunting to go with pheasants, and Michigan has a mix of upland birds that keeps hunters going year after year.- Workshops Planned for Pheasant Restoration Initiative - Feb. 02, 2011

Michigan Pheasant Hunting Information
Michigan's annual harvest typically checks in around 100,000 roosters, and this season should venture into that ballpark yet again. The state is now approaching 67,000 Conservation Reserve Enhancement Program acres, and Michigan's two CRP SAFE projects are geared toward grassland species, including pheasants. Currently, 1,700 acres are enrolled, and there is potential to enroll up to 10,000 acres. * Season Dates: Multiple – Consult regulations * Daily Bag / Possession Limits: 2 / 4
