Hunting Experience
Here at Spring Pond Plantation, quail hunting is more than just a hunt. It is a tradition that has been practiced for over 200 years. Our 1800 acres are divided into 8 separate hunting courses. The longleaf pines and upland landscapes are meticulously managed for wild quail, turkey, and deer. We use multiple management practices, including controlled burning, discing of fallow fields, planting food plots, and mowing, to ensure the natural habitat is properly managed.
We use German short-haired pointers to find the coveys and retrieve the downed birds. We prefer to walk during the hunt, the way our grandparents used to do it. For those who need or prefer, we offer buggies to ride along during the hunt. We will put a pair of dogs on the ground and make large loops throughout the pine forests in search of the covey of quail, returning to the buggies frequently for water breaks and to swap out the dogs. Never hesitate to ask us questions you might have. We have used this plantation as our family retreat for years and are happy to share it with you and share our knowledge.
