I have hunted Illinois, Arkansas and Florida.I obviously dislike hunting in Floridahands down over the other two states. The heat, humidityand bugs will tear you up. Yes, Florida is a huge state and it's terrain and conditionsvary from North to South. I hunt central florida and there are some decent deer but not the number and body mass of bucks as in themidwest, midsouth states. I will tell you this and I have heard pro hunters say this at hunting shows, thatharvesting adeer in the the swamps of Florida is not an easy thing to do.Florida does nto havea great abundance of grain fields to set up on. It take a lot of blood, sweat and tears sometimesbut if you want to hunt, that's what you got to do.
