Mossy Oak Properties Recognizes 2025 Fox Haas Award Recipient 

Mossy Oak Properties, Inc. is pleased to announce husband and wife duo Jeff and Buffy Michalic of Mossy Oak Properties Indiana Land and Lifestyle received its prestigious “Fox Haas Award” at the company’s recent Land Summit, held on February 25th through February 26th, 2025.

The Fox Haas Award, named after the iconic patriarch of the Mossy Oak brand, recognizes a member of the Mossy Oak Properties network nominated by their peers for possessing characteristics such as honor, integrity, and a servant’s heart.  The Michalics, who have been with Mossy Oak Properties for over a decade, were humbled by the award.

“We’re still at a loss for words since being awarded the coveted Fox Haas award at the 2025 Land Summit. There is no greater honor than winning this prestigious award, and we will forever remember that night as one of the best of our lives. To have won it as a couple made it even more special, if that was even possible. Mr. Fox Haas is such an icon and embodies the qualities that we strive to have; to be even mentioned in the same breath as him is so humbling and means the world to both of us. We are so grateful for the incredible people we work alongside, the clients we serve, and the friendships we have built over the past eight years of being with Mossy Oak Properties. This recognition is a reflection of the relationships that have shaped us, and we could not be more thankful. We hope that we can always live up to the standards that Mr. Fox and the Mossy Oak brand symbolize and will work the rest of our lives to do just that,” the Michalics said.

“The Fox Haas Award always displays the quality of people we have in our organization,” said Chris Hawley, CEO/President and Co-Founder of Mossy Oak Properties.  “Seeing how Jeff and Buffy are in a team in everything they do, and how respected they are by their broader team and the Mossy Oak Properties network, is quickly evident.  They truly embody the servant’s heart that this award exemplifies and we could not be more proud to have them in our Mossy Oak Properties family.  They make our family a stronger group.”
