i just busted an 8 point last Wed. in the Ocala National Forest. this makes 3 deer for me so far this year (6 point during muzzle loader, doe and 8 point during general gun season).

woohoo for you....congrats!!!...i didn't kill anything other than a lil' hog and some squirrels so far....i think i am done, i'll still be out there trying but i have no hopes on getting a buck.....

well i have seen 4 does, which to me is good because last year was my first year of deer hunting and i didnt see anything, and i am going tree rat hunting next weekend, and two buddies of mine wanna take me out, so nothing yet.

can't give up now, we still have almost a month and a half of deer season left

CamoCop,

That is awesome, three deer!!! And one at Ocala that is suppose to have lower deer numbers. Congrats. I PM'ed you about your Quota at Citrus.

HuntingMa,

Like CamoCop said don't give up. Many places in FL have a great rut in late December. You have to be in the woods to get a buck!

Miller,

Glad you are seeing some deer. If you see does the bucks will show up. Good luck on the squirels. They are so much fun!

Cheers,
Chris

Congrats Camo...
Awesome man.

WTG CC...........Congrat's

Way to go Camo especially in Ocala I am at 5 three does andtwo bucks. Did you ever see any of those buck you got on the cam at the WMA?

I have killed 1 doe and 4 bucks so far this year and hope to kill 1 or 2 more before it goes out. My friend called me the other day and told me that the bucks in the big bend area are starting to run does real hard again, so it sounds like the second phase on the rut is in and going strong up here. I have been hunting some of the biggest buck sign I have ever found anywhere maybe the ole boy will make a mistake and show up.

i'll be out there, i just have high hopes, lol...if i don't hunt at least 2 days a week, i start going through withdrawls....
