Birds Landing Hunting Preserve

Birds Landing Hunting Preserve has operated as a membership club since 1981, offering both upland game hunting and sporting clays shooting. Located in the Sacramento Delta region, the property spans over 1,000 acres of segregated hunting fields with a mix of natural and perennial grasses, cultivated terrain, and vegetative ditches.

The primary hunting season runs October through April. Members hunt pheasant and chukar with their own dogs or rentals. The terrain accommodates different hunting styles—flushing dogs thrive in tall brush and thick cover, while pointing dogs excel in more open areas.

Hunting Options: - Morning hunts (8:00 AM start) - Afternoon hunts (12:30 PM–3:30 PM) - Open roam hunts (varying time windows by membership level)

Both membership levels include field passes for spouses and children (20 and under). Guests pay a $20 daily use fee or $50 seasonal fee.

Birds Landing opened its sporting clays operation in 1987 and now operates two fully automated courses plus a competition 5-Stand with over 30 shooting positions. Often called "golf with a shotgun," the courses present varied target presentations—crossing shots, inbound/outbound targets, flyers, rollers, and high arcing clays.
