We talk to some interesting people throughout this podcast, especially during the Local Legends series. That being said, in this episode we're talking about something we have never covered before, and that you've likely not heard talked about much in the past. That's hunting mature bucks in the South Florida Everglades. Ryan Carter is this week's legend, and for good reason. You've heard us say that hardcore public land hunters in Florida are among some of the best deer hunters in the US. That definitely holds true still, but to take it a step further... the freaking EVERGLADES? Ryan tells us some of the differences in hunting his region, some of which will surprise you. The Local Legends series is made to highlight average deer hunters with above average success, and Ryan is no exception to that. He talks about the rut (which starts in JUNE), and how it affects the deer season (starting in late JULY). We also cover his stand locations to maximize any opportunity he gets on a mature buck during the season, which are scarce. You're going to love this episode, and it won't take long to realize why Ryan is one of this year's Local Legends.
