From what I've been told, and this could be wrong, it is not that big of a problem till you get south of Chattanooga. Why that is I have no idea, and it may just be a quail. As the guy who told it to me was talking about quail #s, so that kinda makes sense. But I don't know, haven't been quail hunting in over 4 years, and that was Oklahoma.

Don't forget about fire ants and DDT.

My dad was an old horse back quail hunter from back in the day right around that Ft. Polk area. I hunted with him a few times in the late 80's and early 90's. At best then we were happy to find a covey every other hunt or so...

The problem with released birds is survivability... it just doesn't work. There are some private plantations that raise, release and shoot pen birds. It's not very sporting as they don't fly as fast and you just walk the dogs by feeders to find the birds.
