Oceola Hunts

Come Hunt the Palmettos of Florida!!!

We've been hunting the central portion for Florida for the Oceola Wild Turkey for the last 4 years with a 100% success rate.  The ranch is actually in Oceola County near a small town called Holopaw and covers about 5000 acres.  The terrain is mostly pasture fields with palmetto islands and cypress ponds.  This gives the hunter great cover which to set up in and the use of decoys is very effective.  There is a great gobbler to hen ratio and a lot of these gobblers will react to gobbler and jake decoys.  We only book 10 hunters per year which insures that the population basically remains untouched and you will have plenty of birds to look at.  Boys, this hunt is so good even Chris Lyons killed a bird here.  This is a 3 day hunt and the price includes a lunch each day which is cooked on an open fire on the ranch.  You are responsible for breakfast and dinner as well as your hotel accommodations which is in St. Cloud (about 30 min from the ranch).  Licenses are not included and may be purchased online or by phone.  The season starts in the middle of March and ends the middle of April.  Call early because this hunt books up early. 

Pricing; 2009 price;  $1350.00 for one bird.  There are no additional birds.
