Is anyone heading down to Florida for the South zone opener this weekend chasing ol Gobblers? I leave Monday morning around 2 heading there for my first crack at an osceola. Gone be hunting near Clewiston, FL. Wanted to be leaving Friday PM, but have military commitments this weekend.
If anyone else is going to chase birds this weekend, good luck!

Good luck brother!! I’ll get my first crack at em in SE MS for the opener next weekend. I really want to get down to Florida in the next couple years for sure. Let me know how it goes, I assume you’re going fully public?

I am going private. I only plan on making this trek one time and wanted to increase my odds as much as possible. Plus I aint goood enough to kill birds on public. I just hope to find a dumb one every now and then to kill.

Well Florida hunt went well. I was able to take my osceola on the first day. Heard 8-12 birds on roost however they hit the ground and went opposite direction with the hens. I was able to get back on them mid morning and called in two longbeards and killed the biggest of the two. 9.5in beard, 1 1/4 spurs, and weighed right at 17lbs. Not the 1.5in spurred osceola I wanted, but I have completed my slam now according to the NWTF. However, I know the bird I shot in Nebraska was a hybrid which is why I am going to Wyoming this year along with other states to get not only finish the slam but also get a single season slam.
