THE HUNTS
The hunt
Wild bobwhite quail
Wild quail have declined across most of the Southeast, but the Plantation Belt, a stretch of nearly 100 private plantations between Albany and Tallahassee, now holds more birds than it has since the 1950s. This plantation sits right in the heart of it.
Decades of habitat work have brought back the longleaf pine forests, with the wiregrass and broomsedge cover that quail need to thrive. The result is hard-flying birds and plenty of shooting, even for veteran wingshooters.
Guides & dogs
Experienced guides and some of the best pointers, setters and English cockers in the business make every hunt memorable and safe. Hunts focus on bobwhite quail and nothing else, the way it’s been done here for generations.
