Michigan HAP Hunters: Remember to Register Before Hunting

Please visit HAP headquarters to register

Michigan -(Ammoland.com)- Michigan’s Hunting Access Program has been providing great hunting opportunities in areas with limited access for hunters since 1977.

With properties stretching across southern Michigan and a portion of the eastern Upper Peninsula, the program currently allows public hunting on 19,000 acres of privately owned lands.

HAP properties are available each day to hunters on a first-come, first-served basis. Hunters must register at the property headquarters before hunting. Self-service HAP farms have a mailbox designated as the headquarters with registration forms and property information inside. At mandatory check-In properties, hunters must register directly with the landowner.

Whether hunting or scouting, it is important to register upon arrival because each property has a maximum number of hunters allowed at any one time. Failure to register is considered trespassing.
