We use their dogs, pointers and cockers for flushing. I meet friends and have a set package, 1 afternoon at clays then 2 days of chasing birds. Dorchester is about half way between Savannah and Jacksonville.
One of my lifelong hunting buddies had a business relationship with the Gaskins which was paid off in hunts. I've been fortunate to enjoy Jerry's good fortune and have been a couple of times over the years. The Gaskins are great folks. As we are a short drive away, I've never stayed overnight, but the lunch is fantastic. Yes, there is a difference between wild and pen raised, but all in all, a good way to spend a morning or afternoon. Gil
