As mentioned above, Florida is THE place to find the Osceola turkey. I've guided a lot of turkey hunters in SD that have gone after the Osceola, and from what I hear, they are a smart and tough bird to harvest. If you're looking for a good Florida turkey hunt, make sure you get a guide that knows their stuff. The above outfitters have been in the business many years and should be able to give you the best chance of bagging an Osceola turkey. So...pick a good guide, check them out, and get ready for some intense hunting action. Many turkey hunters will never get the chance to hunt Osceola, so don't take your trip for granted. Plan on having good days and bad while hunting turkeys in Florida. They are much more weary than the other sub-species, but with good preparation and, more importantly, a good Florida turkey hunting guide, your chances can be greatly increased. Good luck on your trip and be sure to take a kid hunting with you so that the sport of turkey hunting can last for generations. Remember...our kids will be doing the voting 25 years from now.
