Hunting Preserve

UPLAND BIRD HUNTING

We provide upland game hunting as it used to be in the good old days. We have pheasant, chukar and quail which we release on our farm per your request before your arrival. We are hunting over a 350 acre crop and dairy farm. Our farms include a terrain mixed with natural rolling hills, flowing streams, tickets, wooded area and medium grasses. We only allow one group on the farm at a time.

All prices subject to change at any time. Please verify. Hunting season is from October 1st to March 31st. A 50% deposit is required to reserve a date and is refundable only if cancellation is prior to the release of birds. Effective as of August 2022. These prices are good through December 2022. Guide gratuities not included.

Regulated Shootiing Area Requirements

A valid Maryland Hunting License, an RSA Permit or Military License allows you to be legal to hunt on our Regulated Shooting Preserve. 

Effective As of Fall 2012 Hunting Season – Due to Federal cutbacks, the printed RSA permits that we have always had here at the farm are no longer going to be printed. We are working on a solution to have something available to be purchased on site for convenience. As a solution, please go to MD-DNR website to purchase online.  We are very sorry for the change and the inconvenience.

Regulated Shooting Area Requirements: A Regulated Shooting Area (RSA) is a tract of land on which the licensee may release and shoot captive-raised mallard ducks and certain other game birds. Mason-Dixon Game Outfitters is an Regulated Shooting Area (Preserve)
