Classic South Georgia Quail Hunt

Field Journal

In mid-March friends and I traveled to South Georgia for a vintage southern quail hunt on a large extensively managed plantation. Morning and afternoons were spent watching pointers and setters cast through the pine forests and point bobwhites holding tight in the wiregrass. Hunting was done from a mule drawn wagon and horseback. Once the dogs went on point, we walked up and flushed one big explosive covey after another. The shooting was fast and intense. Fantastic! This Georgia hunt truly reflects the “Golden Days” of southern quail hunting.

Each group is provided with their private manor house including staff and chef. The houses are tastefully furnished and very comfortable. Our chef prepared delicious meals. Since my first trip to the plantation years ago, the owners and their staff continue to provide exceptional service to our friends and hunters.

This bird hunt receives high marks and is a superb destination for couples, families, corporate groups and hard-core upland hunters.

Gordie’s Book

“There are some things I knew about Gordie White before I read his book…and one important thing I did not know. I knew that he was not only an experienced hunter, but a passionate, with a genuine love for wild places and wild creatures. I knew that he’d been brought up as a hunter, and that this is, essentially, his life as well as his hobby, both his avocation and vocation. It’s my chronological misfortune to consider him young, but he’s filled his years with a tremendous amount of experience, from Canada to Africa and back again, with multiple stops in between. I knew these things because we’ve shared African campfires together…and I knew one thing more: Gordie White is one of the good guys, honest, self-deprecating, not given to the shameless self-promotion that, in this era of mass communication without accountability, turns inexperienced ‘wanna-be’s’ into self-proclaimed gurus. But there was one important thing that I did not know about Gordie White: The man can write! Although I’m sure there are more, there are two things that make a book like this worthy of reading. First, the writer must have a genuine story to tell. Second, he must be able to tell it. Gordie White passes both tests, and has given us a great story, worth telling and worth reading.”
