Florida Whitetails

[alexhunter]

Been chasing them for the past 4 years in several FL public lands/wma's. Kicks my ass everytime, can't wait to do it again this season though....

Thanks, this is the best forum/interface. Been following Randy's videos for a long time. He's been fighting the good fight for hunters on the political arena.

You got any good leads on Osceola turkeys?

Yep Florida whitetails are like nothing I ever hunted in any of my limited other states I have hunted. Welcome to the forum from another swamp donkey!

Thanks, I just have to keep at it

I got a nice hog at Corbett on Nov 2014. And tons of footage on does and fawns but those bucks are like ninjas!

I haven't killed any turkeys, a good spot is Kissimmee River Public Use Area..units like Oak Creek and others have good turkey...a hen landed near me and my decoy last year but no gobbler showed up...

I grew up hunting the Florida Panhandle. Those deer were well earned for sure.

I am moving down to the Florida panhandle in October and I am honestly looking forward to having my butt kicked!
It's always exciting to hunt new states and test your skills....or fail and then develop new ones.


To make it even better I am near Alabama and Mississippi.... so there will be no lack of hunting!

Good luck to you alexhunter.

Welcome! I don't think it is any easier or tougher then the terrain they have out west. It is just another type of terrain and set of skills needed to get the job done.

I went to college with a guy that's from Panama City. They were big dog hunters. Me and him wore the deer out around Starkville, MS our senior year. Lol

Two bucks per day was the limit when I was growing up. Here's Dad with an opening day, DIY public land double.

Dad and Uncle on another opening day.

So is the deer population affected by this boa constrictor "outbreak" going on down there? I would assume so

Lostinthewoods, where will you be living? I grew up in the panhandle.

I'll be stationed at Hurlburt Field. So I plan on hunting the Eglin range, Blackwater, and Yellow River WMA.
I've already got a house in Fort Walton Beach ready to go!

Looks like you all were very successful down there! Great pictures.
