Anyone have any good experiences hunting deer in NW Florida? What public lands do you consider best for deer? Hogs? Anyone have any favorites? I'm new to hunting and have little to no direction when it comes to hunting this area.

I have 1800 acres outside Carryville near Chipley and let me tell you. We have some ncie deer up there Already this season memebrs have taken a nice 7pt and 6pt both weighing in the 160lb range. Fat does, hogs, turkeys, heck I cant wait for Saturday to get here for the opening day!!!

Sounds like a blastUnfortunately, this doesn't help meAnyone have any tips on public lands in NW Florida?

Eglin AFB Big area nd lots of deer. I will check with my buddy who lives in chipley and is a surveyor. He knows every dang tree in the area!!! i will have you hunting WMA Public this weekend!!!

Apalachee in Jackson county!

Quincy in Gadsden county!

Blackwater WMA is still ok, Eglin is the best.

Hey Deerman, are they finished working on thebridges over the Escambia Bay? Last time I went thru there, the traffic was terrible!

For information on Eglin AFB hunting, call the Jackson Guard office at 850-882-4164. There is also the Point Washington area between Panama City and Destin.

Ok, Eglin it is, thanks guys!

Ox you need to check with Jackson Guard, but someone told me that they were allowing the use of rifles on parts of Eglin now. Use to it was shotgun only.
