Florida Youth hunt

Post by Jamey »

Leaving earrrrly in the morning to drive down and listen and scout for two days before the Florida youth weekend. Debbie will then drive back up and pick up the kids after school on Friday while I continue to scout.

Will be tent camping along with ten million mosquitos.

2 of our grandkids that got drawn for this quota hunt so I am pretty hopeful that we can get them both onto birds. This will be the third Osceola hunt for each of them and although Bryce got one last year and two 3 years ago on this same hunt, Josie still is without her bird so we are really trying to get her on one this time around...she has been close but no shot yet.

Wish us luck!!

Good luck for all involved! Nothing better!
Hopefully, you'll survive those damned bugs!!

We've located 5 gobbling birds.
Debbie went back this morning after scouting and is on her way down now with the kids.
Raining cats and dogs here at the moment but supposed to be gone and sunny at first light!
Tent camping in the rain leaves something to be desired so I'm sitting in the truck at the moment.
Anyone need any mosquitos? We have plenty to share!
Hopefully will post dead bird and smiling faces pics tomorrow!
