Default Florida Deer

Is there a Florida Hunter who is keen on the landscape here that could shoot me some pointers on where these deer sleep, feed, habits. Ive been scouting alot lately. I seen tracks and even found some rubs (which is always exciting). I want to be able to look into an area and say "ah, they are bedding over there, the food is over there. Really get into the mind of the deer you know. I am a new bowhunter and am learning everything i can. Could someone share some jewels of knowledge

the only real advice i can give ya, is to find some well used trails, followthe tracks, see where they go, look for foods sources(palmetoo berries, acorns), watering holes, you'll know a bedding area when you see it...follow the rub line too, look for scrapes....scout as much as possible...if it's real wet , they'll bed up on lil islands or the bases of trees...they like the marsh....the marsh edge is just the best....if i could only hunt 2 places, it would be the creeks and the marsh...go to the nastiest areas you can find ....try to get between the bedding areas and the food sources/water....
where are you planning on hunting ?
