Osceola in 2023
#11

I've dreamed about hunting Osceola for years, finally it's going to happen in 2023. My biggest hurdle is finding a place affordable! After looking at a few outfitters and how much their charging, I really don't want to spend 2-3 thousand dollars to hunt a turkey. I'm not sure if looking into paying a fee to hunt private land is an option, but I would like to go that route. Next option would be if I could get someone willing to help me out with where to hunt and the general information that would make this hunt a safe and enjoyable one. I'm sure a lot of you are reading this and thinking another guy not wanting to do the leg work on his own and wants someone else to do it for him. That's not entirely true, I'm an avid turkey hunter and when this web site held the turkey hunting contest each year, I was always involved with it and I usually did pretty good. Anyways, I'm just a retired guy that loves to hunt looking for some advice on where to hunt in a state that I've never hunted before.

Dark to black with no white wings bars.
Pleas post alot car and take us with you. At my age now an Osceola is out of the question.
Here in NE Wisconsin the big flocks are breaking up. And I saw 3 dandy toms cruising.

Will do, I'm only going to hunt 3 days, I'll be on my way back home from vacationing in Naples. I know that's not much time to turkey hunt, but this trip to Florida wasn't a planned hunting trip. I feel lucky to be able to just give it a try!

Yeah I've thought about that, especially going in before daylight! Not as concerned about it after the sun is up lol.
