RE: Florida Has Become an Innovation State
I've hunted in Florida for the last 4 years, It's ok but to seriously putmeat on th etable i hunt out of state on private property. Missouri and Virginia.
Although I've finally figured out where they aer at. Th epublic places are so crowded the deer are generally spooked and go into nocturnal feeding early ..real early. I saw a nice deer and hog this year both 30 min.before legal daylight. Snakes...lots of those as well as gators.

B&C Wanna B,
Are you attempting to demand respect? Taking a pretty good stab at it? Maybe you would like to hint around at it, in hopes of getting it?
Guys, when I talk about respect, I demand it. Many of you have heard the stories about hunting in North Florida, deep in the bottom wetlands, battling the salty toothed moccasin and the ill tempered alligator - this demands it.
Look, I am sure hunting up there above the Mason-Dixon is a real treat for everyone. Fascinating probably. I imagine sitting in a lazy boy type stand, sipping on a cup of coffee, waiting to take your pick at several deer - that is likely a real challenge for many of you. And you know what? You know what? I am glad that y'all have that opportunity.
HOWEVER, hunting in the deep South takes patience, skill, and athleticism. 320 bench guys. Cranking out reps. Walking in mud up to your knees just to get to the stand BEFORE DAYLIGHT. That's respect.
Again, I am sure the north is a great place and that all of you really have a terrific time hunting up there. Just a real treat.

RE: Florida Has Become an Innovation State
I've seen hunters on other forums whining that there is no where to hunt in FL and that all the land is tied up with leases. I have also seen guys post their biggest FL deer pictures on that forum and I would not even shoot a deer that small. I am sure there are a few nice ones there but FL's claim to fame will always be the fishing and not the hunting.
