  • Corporate Hunting Packages[AFTERLIST]

Pheasant Hunts

Our guided pheasant hunts are the best you will find. Even though all of our properties have both pheasants and quail, some hold mostly pheasants. Hunting pheasants behind our pointing dogs can be an exciting experience!  We hunt along fence rows, food plots, and native prairie grasses. We manage our pheasant hunting properties to create a one-of-a-kind pheasant hunting experience!

 

 

 


Quail Hunts

Hunting wild quail in Illinois, especially in Pike County, has been a tradition that goes back for generations. The native prairie grasses of Illinois are ideal habitat for coveys of quail.

These same traditions continue on at Heartland Lodge. Many of the farms we quail hunt are just like “Uncle Lyle’s farm.” The farms still have the old fence rows, native grasses, and a mixture of food plots and grain fields. This prime habitat ensures that coveys of wild quail are scattered across all of our properties.

 


Snow Goose Hunts

Snow goose hunting along the Mississippi and Illinois river flyways can be some of the most exciting and action-packed snow goose hunts available!  There are no limits and no plugs! On our best day we harvested 250 snow geese!

You will hunt out of very comfortable heated, pit blinds. Our spread consists of several thousand decoys along with several electronic callers to bring in the snow geese. A hot breakfast will be served in the morning inside our blind. The professional guides, dogs, gourmet homecooked meals, and accommodations are all included in the price of our snow goose hunts!

  85. Billy Nicholson says:

    Have upland bird hunted on Michigan’s UP for grouse and woodcock, Wyoming’s sage brush flats for pheasants and Montana’s CRP fields, BLM land and river bottoms for sharp-tail grouse and Huns. Grew up in mountains of North Georgia hunting when there was a good grouse population in the 60’s-70’s, but a decline in population since 80 to now, you can hunt all day with a good dog and might get 1 or 2 flushes (at least where I live) here in Georgia. The thought of getting the opportunity to hunt waterfowl(which I have never done) and having no limits and no plugs just blows my mind!! Harpoles’s looks and sounds like a top of the line place. Thanks for the privilege of getting to sign up. God Bless all of you!!!

  86. David weaver says:

    Arkansas has no quail anymore I was an big hunter haven’t hunt a quail In 20 years would be a awesome hunt

  92. Hunting with good friends, family, and your own great bird dogs is hard to beat. If you have lived that kind of life, you understand.
