My friend and I are looking to come to Florida to try to shoot an osceola. Does anyone know of a reputable guide with a fair price?

We will have limited time due to out work scehdules or I would be willing to try the DIY way.

Thank you

Robert

Talk to Adrian Hare..He's a member on this forum and guides in Florida.. He's also a kick ass turkey hunter

I went in 2008 with Capt. Billy Henderson that runs Deep South Outfitters. My buddy and I both finished our slam with him. He has alot of birds on some great private ground. I reccomended him to a guy on here, blackheel I think. He went last spring and killed a nice bird there too. Becareful with Billy b/c he will talk you in to coming down gator hunting too I killed a 10 footer there, it was awesome!!!!!!

Tried doing business with Billy Henderson earlier this year for a hunt next year. I didn't think that he was very professional and would not think of trying to book a hunt with him. He may or may not have good turkey hunting - who knows. After trying to book a hunt with him though I'm glad that it didn't work out and feel that there are a lot of other outfitters out there who will treat you better. Check out www.customadventuresandequipment.com and talk to capt. Scott. I think he would treat you a bit better.

We book hunts for Capt Billy and not sure what happened that would make you feel that way. I don't know that I know many people that is easier to get along with then Capt Billy. I guess there's always personalities clashes where two people are just not a good fit. I even sent a hunter to Capt Billy on a hog hunt and the hunter had a very limited time to hunt and didn't even get the chance to kill his hog and he still gave Capt Billy great references and that says a lot. All that aside Capt Billy Henderson is a stand up honest outfitter that delivers what he claims to be able to deliver. If you want a quality Osceola hunt for about as cheap as your going to find one in FL that still is good enough to maintain a 100% rate he is the man. Call me toll free 1-877-647-9926 or email me at [email protected] and I will set you up on a very good reputable Osceola hunt. it won't cost you a cent for us to arrange your hunt for you, all you'll have to do is show up and kill your Osceola.

Wow, I hate to hear that. I have been on two hunts with Billy and he worked his tail off for me on the turkey and gator hunt. I am going to take my son down there in a couple years to finish his slam.

Everyone I emailed this year after spring season never responded to me. I wanted to set up a osceola hunt for 2011. Still no response as of today.

Adrian doesn't guide in Fla. anymore.But he could point ya in the right direction.

email me, I will respond [email protected]
