BIG BOOM. Yes, I use one and I livein Florida. You must anchor Your deer now !! I hunt in a 3'200 acre swamp and if you loose one in there You will loose it for good gators panthers and yots. I hand load 250 G round nose Hormady bullets at about 2300 Fps. The deer just flip right over and stop moving, no tracking just fresh veneson.
Do not let anyone tell You what You should use and good luck. TJK
