Default Quail hunting

I was looking for suggestions for a place to go quail hunting down south, any suggestions / referrals would be appreciated.
Also I have never gone quail hunting before.

If you can weasel your way onto Bray's Island, that's where I'd go. My parent's lived their for 19 years. It's an adult playground with golf, fishing, horses, deer, ducks, quail and guns. What better. I sure do miss that place.

Funny thing is that in the 80’s they were trying to get me to buy a place down there. Maybe should have taken it more seriously.

It's according to whether you want to hunt released birds or wild birds.

Wild birds are available at two or three plantations in the Albany/Leesburg, GA area. Three years ago one of them was getting $11,500 per gun for 1 1/2 days hunting, all accommodations included.

Most people who haven't hunted bobwhites opt for released birds, which can range from really good fliers to pitifully poor, according to the operation..........and are much less pricey.

Wow! And I thought driven grouse in Scotland were expensive!

Stan is absolutely correct. Some folks who have never hunted a wild quail have not really experienced quail hunting. Not saying that is a bad thing at all, but there is no comparison really to wild bird hunting and pen raised birds.
