    Best Food Plot Seed for Sandy Florida Panhandle old Pine Tree Farm

    Last year I put down WIT Clover on several patches. Grew decent then all just died off over the summer. Have tried Beets n Greens, Throw n Grow mix, and some other Clover. Nothing seems to take in this poor soil. Thinking of trying Iron Clay Peas or something of that sort. Any suggestions...

    Persimmon Trees, how to tell if they will Fruit or Not?

    I didn't what to Highjack the other Thread, so started this one for possibly some answers. I have found MANY Persimmon Trees on my Lease, but only a few- very few- have any evidence of Fruit. Is there a Year Range or Height Range they need to attain before Fruiting happens? I have heard that...

    Florida Hunting is OPEN

    Archery has started in South Florida. For those that think Florida does not produce Big Bucks, you may want to rethink that opinion. While not the body size of their Northern Cousins, deer in Florida can grow some horns if given the time. This is not mine. Pics were taken from a Florida...

    Built In Range Finder Sights

    Here in Florida the FWC, with Guidance from the Bow Hunters, has Approved the use of Sights that include a built in Range Finder. I thought I would ask the DHF what their thoughts were on this new form of Hunting Sight. As for me I had mixed feelings when filling out the questionnaire. I...

    Deer Regulations in your Area.

    Thought it might be interesting to see how different the Regs were in different states. Down here in Fl during Archery you can take 2 Deer a day -either Doe + Doe, Buck +Buck, or Buck + Doe. Crossbow Only Week Bucks (2 a Day) Only. Gun 2-Bucks per day, with some Doe Day Weekends thrown in...

    New Heritage HC

    To go along with my Food Plot Thread, this one is about the Land and the Adventures it gives me. Leased 80 Acres in the Florida Panhandle. The surrounding 300 Acres on 3 Sides is owned by one man that does not hunt. This is a New To Me parcel of land and as I learn more about it I will...

    Starting from Scratch.

    Long Post, so bear with me. Raised in NW Pa and now living in Central Fl for 18 years, things hunting-wise have sure been a big change for me. For starters I was raised on a small farm that was part of a larger farm that was split amongst the kids when my Grandparents passed. So I had about...
