In Dec. my father and I will visiting Quail Country Plantation and Pine Hill Plantation in South Georgia to do some quail hunting. At Quail Country, we will be hunting from Jeeps and at Pine Hill, we will be hunting from horseback and mule-drawn wagon. Has anybody hunted at either place? How was your experience? http://quailcountry.com/http://pinehillplantation.com/Thanks Adam

Good Lord! I hunt South Georgia all the time for quail, and I would choke on those rates, particularly the 2nd one. I suggest you check around the Dublin, GA area for cheaper rates. Quail hunts is quail hunts in South Georgia, they differ in how nice a lodge might be, how they haul you around the farm, and how fancy the "cook" dresses up. If you can do without the "Orvis Endorsed" tag, stay in a nearby motel, and brown bag your lunch, you'll be hunting more like the "natives" do and save a bundle. Google quail hunting in Georgia and see what else othter than Orvis joints come up. I have nothing at all against Orvis endorsements, I have hunted them, I am just old and cheap, I guess.

It's not the amount of lead that's the problem with lobsters it's getting those pesky shot thru the water in the firstplace. However a water spaniel makes an excellent pointer but doesn't do so well retrieving!!  Jim

Chief......can you offer some hunts or web sites in South Georgia for somewhat reasonable rates? I've done the search and come up with the high end stuff only!

I live in Southeast Alabama. I hunt mostly wild quail here but I wanted to do a traditional plantation hunt. It is very expensive but it will be worth it. I would consider some lower end places but at these plantations, you are mostly shooting liberated birds. At places like Pine Hill and Quail Country, you are shooting a lot more early released birds. Which plantation would you recommend? Adam
