Wanted to do an introduction. Born and raised in Florida, been hunting here my whole life (in my early 30s). Mostly deer and turkey, but also love to waterfowl. Probably best at Turkey hunting and have a few slams under my belt. Also an avid offshore fisherman and work for a boat builder in Miami. Happy to help set anyone up with good fishing guides down here or offer input to anyone interested in coming to florida to hunt. Recently decided to start expanding my pursuits as many of my friends have moved out to the west, California and new mexico mainly. Was looking to get into some elk and mule deer hunting. Ive been trying to watch a lot of Randys videos to learn what i can, but i know theres a big gap between that and being on the ground trying to make it happen. Looking forward to gaining information and hopefully helping others if i can.

Welcome!

Hey! I'm a newbie here too, I wanted to welcome you as I'm planning to move to Florida for living soon. So, I think here I will find some useful information about this region.

Welcome! Wow a lot of SFL and FLL here- I’m here in Ft Lauderdale now doing a lot of fishing too. I’ll be heading to MT for elk and deer for the first time this year. Shoot me a message if interested in connecting

Welcome!
Yes, there is a gap between the videos and being on ground but if you watch all the videos and make a couple hunts you can reduce the learning curve. Grew up hunting whitetail and small game and started hunting out West a few years ago. I'll never catch the guys who have been hunting the West for decades but my Southern hunting experience meant I wasn't starting from scratch.
Wind, wind, wind. I'm sure I got busted many times by wind hunting whitetail and I didn't know it but you'll find out how important it is hunting elk. Watch Corey's videos and get Elk 101 to learn how to call.
