Is everyone that hunts in Florida, whether public land or private land, are you satisfied with your hunting season dates? After 4 years of hunting Zone C, I've had enough. I have been talking to FWC and sending evidence of why the season dates need to change. First of all, the prime rut occurs end of August and will trickle a few days into September. This is a huge problem. With a doe tag, my brother harvested a doe first weekend of black powder and we ended up seeing a tiny baby fetus in her! I'm tired of it. I don't understand why this even happens. We should be able to have all phases of the season. The season needs to move to August 1st- December 31st. The rut is what we want to hunt. I'm not sure about anyone else but seeing nice mature bucks during shooting light would be nice. I don't know if I need a petition to start up or what but if anyone is unsatisfied you should give them a call. Here's a couple pictures I sent to FWC. Again this rant is for zone C. Something has to be done. The still hunters suffer big time. The dog hunters probably do not care because they just listen to dogs all day. This is why deer numbers are not great. Hunters are shooting does that are bred. But there's nothing we can do because the season starts late.
