I bout froze to death this morning fishing. My thumb was so cold I couldn't feel the line on the spool
I'll be west of Perry but running dogs. We've been seeing more bucks recently here and there messing with the does again. My dad killed a nice 7pt south of perry running with a small doe earlier this week. We jumped a spike Wednesday that would not break off and leave the does he was with. It should be good as long as the wind will lay.good luck
Doghunter, I could use some advise on deer activity in that area. Since you seem to live, and hunt that area, and I mainly hunt central Fl. WMA's. What do think the peak breed is around there. Consensus from the few I have asked is around the beginning of archery. Also is there a 2nd peak, 3rd peak. I pretty much have the ability to hunt a peice of property up there when ever I want as long as my buddy can get away. Its a long way from pinellas beach area 3 1/2 hours minimum, and a 120 bucks in fuel just to hope I am going at the best time of the year. I'm getting older, and Its harder to compete on the WMA's with each passing year. I could join this piece, and hunt all I want for only $500.00 per season. 4 guys total on a piece basically 1/2 mile square. I haven't researched the area, but it seems quite cheap.

I hunt due East of Perry, and they peak chasing is usually Halloween. Having said that, they will hit another gear right about now, if history repeats itself. I will be up there this coming weekend in a WMA for small game opener, and I will guarantee you I will find fresh scrapes and rubs that are only a few days old. 3 years ago I was in a dog lease up there. It was this coming weekend then I watched a buck that had already dropped his antlers bird dog a doe all morning
Halloween is when I want to be in the woods for most of the Wma's I like to hunt. Allen, are you talking Mayo area, or are you alot closer to Perry now. If so Mayo is probaby 50 miles. I've seen major differences in peak within less than 10 miles away. Florida is flat out strange. Just trying to really pin it down. This place is 8 miles south of Perry right off of 19
