Pappy19,
Yes,the Thomasville area has a number of quail plantations.
Not only does the plantation I go to have quail and turkey hints but they also produce cotton and peanuts.

Sorry to hear that your wife is ill. I had to care for my wife 24/7 for over three years before she passed away. I lost 70 lbs in the process and almost lost my right foot at the same time.

So I basically know what you are going through.

Getting back to the quail hunt,I will also take my T/C Contender with the 14" 410 bbl to see how that works. Should be interesting.

I like my Savage 720 16 ga. On a Browning patent. Best made, even better than the Belgium Brownings. Your TC should be fun.

Papy,
IMHO,the 16 ga is really under appreciated. It is an excellent gauge with lots of potential.

If I am not mistaken,it is still quite popular in the deep south.

Lots of 16ga Ithaca shotguns out there, too.

Windor,
A few years ago Ithaca made the wise choice of reintroducing the lightweight 16 ga pump. I think that it was a wise move.

If I am not mistaken,Ithaca guns are now made by Inland in Ohio. The company has seen a lot of changes over the past few years.

The parts and bbls from the old NY made guns do not interchange with the later models. I found that out the hard way.

Getting back to the pythons in FL,I wonder if the latest hurricanes have caused the pythons to move into somewhat drier,more populated areas down there?

I understand that it is a serious problem.
