While quail hunting at Gopher Plantation the guests can ride on our pull behind dog buggies equipped with bench seats on top. This set up allows the guest to get a bird’s eye view of the plantation on the way to the quail hunting courses.

About Our Bobwhite Quail Hunts in Georgia

Most important info about these hunts—landscapes, strategies, costs, and comforts.

Summary & Terrain

Georgia sits at the heart of the traditional quail belt, offering some of the most classic bobwhite quail habitat in the South. Hunts typically take place on privately managed pine plantations and open woodlands characterized by well-spaced loblolly or longleaf pines, grass food plots, and native understory. Rolling terrain and sandy soils create ideal conditions for covey-roosting and flushing, while sawtooth palmetto and native grasses provide cover. Hunting ranches often feature multiple courses—ranging from 30 to 60 acres each—where mature quail populations are maintained through habitat management and supplemental food plots.

Difficulty & Strategy

Quail hunting in Georgia is a medium-difficulty pursuit that combines moderate walking with guided dog work. Hunts are driven by experienced pointers and flush dogs, allowing hunters to move into the wind, watch a point develop, then call for the flush. Many outfitters provide pull-behind buggies or utility vehicles to cover ground between courses and offer elevated seating for easy access. DIY packages are also available for those who wish to bring their own bird dogs; birds can be released on pre-prepared courses and a guide will show you the layout. Flush times can be fast and coveys responsive, making quick reflexes and safe shotgun handling essential.

Amenities

Bobwhite quail hunts in Georgia are offered primarily as guided day hunts, with most participants returning to their own accommodations each evening. For those opting to stay on-site, comfortable lodges are available, featuring private rooms with beds and full modern climate control. Day-hunt packages require no on-site housing or sleeping arrangements, while multi-day packages include lodge lodging and all the amenities needed for a restful night’s sleep before heading back into the field.

Season & Additional Info

Most quail seasons run from late October through January, with peak activity often in December and early January when coveys are well-established. Packages typically include a licensed guide, field dressing, and transport on the plantation; lodging and meals can be arranged on-site or at nearby farms. Some hunts are paired with waterfowl outings—usually scheduled in December and January—for a mixed upland and duck experience that includes pre-hunt lodging and continental breakfasts. Hunters should secure a Georgia small game license and be prepared for changing weather; layered clothing and waterproof boots are recommended for early-season cool mornings and mid-day warmth.

Pricing

Bobwhite quail hunts in Georgia typically average around $570 per hunter for a guided day of shooting. Most outfitters offer half-day or full-day options, with half-day outings often running in the mid-$400 range and full days closer to $600. Multi-day packages that include on-site lodge accommodations, breakfast and lunch, and bird cleaning generally fall between $650 and $800 per day. Key factors that affect cost include group size (smaller groups mean more one-on-one attention), length of hunt, quality of lodging (rustic cabins versus private climate-controlled rooms), availability of experienced pointing dogs and guides, and whether bird processing or packing is included. Licenses, bird cleaning fees, and gratuities are usually additional, so it’s important to confirm what’s covered before booking.
