Back in 1942, the 50,000 acre Sea Island Shooting Preserve was sold to paper companies. Since the mid 1990s, Sea Island has been working to buy back the land.
Broadfield is a hunting compound straight from Jones’s fantasies. It includes a five-stand, a rifle and pistol range, and two lakes stocked with bass and bream. There is a walk-in cooler for keeping game and a smokehouse for cooking it. Chef Jordan Poteat, pulled from the main resort, oversees beehives, a chicken coop, and a substantial organic garden—all of which supply the kitchens at Broadfield and Sea Island’s seven restaurants.
In case that's not enough for you, there is also the option to participate in the falconry program.
If you're into sporting clays and/or skeet, Sea Island does it right. They have a beautiful sporting clays course along the intracoastal waterway that is comparable to Kiawah's Ocean Course in the way the wind off the water can change the difficulty of the course. Here's what the skeet field looks like:
Not bad, eh?
That reminds me. I need to get out and start breaking some clays.
