Welcome to the Royal Stag Preserve
Private Pheasant Hunting in Michigan
Our shared passion for the natural beauty of Northern Michigan was the first ingredient in creating the Royal Stag brand. Our team is full of Michigan locals who grew up playing and hunting in this natural midwest wonderland. As an avid hunter and devoted father, Royal Stag Founder Will Saputo does everything possible to create a hunting environment that’s fun and safe for our guests.
Here at Royal Stag Preserve, we believe in delivering only the finest to our hunt club guests. From arrival to the last shot, the Royal Stag journey will be unparalleled. With exclusive preserve access, our bird hunting experience featurs brand-new state-of-the-art equipment and clearly marked fields to ensure your safety. We handle bird placement, transportation to designated hunting areas, and a cleaning area after the hunt. Our mission is simple, to provide a safe and upscale pheasant hunting experience with modern amenities our guests love.

Hello Everyone,
July is almost over, and it’s wonderful to see the growth at the preserve flourishing. As we prepare for the seasons to change, there’s a palpable excitement in the air for the adventures fall will bring. The colors will soon shift, and the crisp air will call us all to embrace the great outdoors.
Please save the date for our upcoming orientation on August 15th. It’s an essential gathering where we will discuss our plans and activities for the fall season. Your presence is important, so please RSVP to me at your earliest convenience so I can ensure we have an accurate headcount.
I hope you all had a memorable 4th of July, filled with celebration and camaraderie. Looking forward to seeing you all soon and sharing in the spirit of the season.
Best regards,
JP Heintz

The .300 @winchester_arms Magnum is celebrated for its exceptional accuracy and formidable power, making it a top pick for serious hunters. This rifle cartridge is perfect for varied game sizes, offering versatility across different hunting scenarios.
🎆Key Features: With its ability to maintain a flat trajectory over long distances, the .300 Win Mag ensures precise shots that are crucial in wide, open spaces.
🎆Adaptability: It’s suited for bullets ranging from 150 to 200 grains, allowing hunters to adjust based on their specific targets and environmental conditions.
We’re gearing up to use this awesome gun this fall at the @thebigeasyranch. @jphheintz, our @royalstagproperties lead and Will’s right hand man, will be heading out to snag a Royal Stag destined for the place of honor above the @theroyalstagclub’s cigar lounge fireplace.🤩

Ever wondered why images from night cameras look so different depending on the settings? Let’s break it down:
🌺Color Night Vision: Captures vibrant, true-to-life hues in low-light using ambient light or integrated LEDs. Perfect when subtle color details matter.
🌙Infrared Night Vision: Shines in total darkness, using infrared light to create crisp, monochrome images. Ideal for seeing clear shapes and movements without visible light.
Each setting has its specialty, whether it’s revealing hidden colors in the twilight or piercing the darkest nights.

New Member Orientation Day (for members only)
Join us in the great tradition of camaraderie and the love of the hunt on Thursday, August 15th, from 5 PM to 8 PM for our new member orientation. Our journey begins at the "Barns," located at 8433 Bates Rd, Williamsburg, MI 49690. Here, we’ll embark on a tour of the lower fields @yubavineyards, sharing tales of the land and the wildlife it harbors. We`ll discuss valuable information and offer the chance to purchase some of our finest hunting swag.
From there, our adventure leads us to the NEW Whiteford Farm, where we’ll revel in the sight of the lush new crops planted back in May. The beauty of the land and the promise it holds for the coming seasons has us filled with excitement!
We will then return to the upper part of the Yuba Farm, where we can gaze upon the fields, drink in hand, and enjoy light snacks. It’s a moment to reflect on the bounty of nature and the hard work we`ve invested.
We are eager to share the fruits of our labor and the spirit of the hunt with you all. Please feel free to spread the word to anyone who shares our passion for the great outdoors.
Looking forward to sharing this adventure with you,
JP Heintz

Master the art of whitetail deer hunting by tuning into their daily and seasonal rhythms. Here`s a quick guide:
â–ªWhitetails are most active at dawn and dusk. These are prime times to spot them as they feed and move.
â–ªIn November, during the mating season, bucks are on the move more often. This period offers unique opportunities for a successful hunt.
â–ªFocus on areas where woods meet fields and near water sources. These are favorite spots for deer because they offer food and safety.
â–ªStay downwind and move silently. Deer have a sharp sense of smell and are easily spooked.
Equip yourself with these insights and approach your next hunt with confidence.
