North Florida is where it's at for the tame deer....more open up there.

johnny if you make it down here again make sure you tell me, i want to meet ya, i will be going to sarasota and bradenton more often now cause that is where all the diesel guys that i know live at.

yup north fla south GA is where they are at..... there are plenty of places to get a big buck up here..... let me know if'n ur ever in this area and i'll give ya some pointers on where you can go for free..... but you have to have a ga liscense to go there....

sweet....but none of the deer down here are big though.

they aught to be seeing that all the snow burds prolly feed them.......

i represent that remark...... look at my truck..... John Deere tag.... even my avatar..... true i haven't been on anything JD bigger than my lawnmover but i do have a Massey Fergison with a bush hog, finishing mower and boxblade that i use to mow the 12 acres of grass my parents have..... does that count?

no its just sad that "county" is cool now, its a fad, its pathetic, i remember in school if you wore wranglers, you drove a truck, was in FFA/4H, AND lived on a REAL farm, no questions asked, now all the city kids wear them with their expensive justin lacers and $25 wrangler shirts, join FFA for a science credit, keep animals at someone elses house cause they live in the city, and take them to the county fair, and that apparently makes them country, MAKES THEM A BUNCH OF WANNABEE'S in my eyes.......bunch of road farmers.......you should have a MF plate on your truck, you got to represent what you got, thats why i wear IH hats, cause my grandfather and great grandfather farmed with IH for almost 60 years and if i wore anything else they would roll over in their graves. sadly we dont farm our farm with our own equipment anymore, couldnt afford it, but we still own 650 acres of some of the best farm ground in southern ohio and raise show animals, we cash rent it out to some family friends......i can sum it up in one sentence for those that still dont understand......if you've ever been asked to leave class cause of some funny smell coming from the "mud" on your boots your from the country.....

now back to the deer hunting: they have way too many hunting laws here in florida, in ohio its, buy a license, buy your 6 tags, go kill deer(s), tag them in, eat them......in florida it involves so much red tape and bull that it aint worth shooting a german shephard sized deer over.....

no the deer don't come in close enough for the damned snowbirds.

i got a new JD mower that gets more attention than the MF..... it's got headlights (the JD) so it gets used alot more now that the time has changed.....

You can count on it. You owe me an Ice Cold Budweiser. lol

The wife and I usually make it down every year to see the folks but I don't think we'll make it this year. Next year for sure. :U:

DEFINATELY!!!! we can go over to Ybor city and hit up some of the bars, Coyote Ugly is a fine establishment.....:U: hell if any of you guys make it within 100 miles or so of lakeland tell me, ill drive....
