This September Guided Trip in Florida City delivered some excellent hunting action despite the afternoon rain. The wet conditions actually worked in our favor, helping mask our movement and keeping us from getting winded by nearby deer. Using a mix of spot-and-stalk techniques and still hunting based on conditions, we adapted our approach throughout the day. Florida City's diverse terrain of hardwoods and open fields creates the perfect environment for switching hunting strategies depending on deer movement patterns. The cooler temperatures and moisture had the deer more active than usual for this time of day, allowing for a successful white-tailed deer harvest. Whether you're looking for a private land hunt or prefer active stalking, our local knowledge ensures quality opportunities throughout the fall season.

Florida City offers excellent opportunities for white-tailed deer hunting across varied terrain. The mix of hardwood forests and open fields creates ideal edge habitat where deer naturally travel between feeding and bedding areas. September marks the beginning of increased deer movement as they transition to fall patterns, making it an excellent time for spot-and-stalk hunting. Morning hunts typically focus on travel corridors between bedding and feeding areas, while afternoon hunts target food sources where deer become more active as temperatures cool.
The local deer respond particularly well to weather changes – with rain often triggering increased movement as we experienced on this trip. Hunters visit this area specifically for the quality of habitat and the opportunity to use multiple hunting techniques in a single day. The terrain allows for versatile approaches from elevated positions overlooking travel corridors to slow, methodical stalks through areas with fresh sign. Understanding wind direction becomes critical in these conditions, as the varied topography can create swirling patterns that educated deer will quickly detect.

We provide transportation to and from hunting locations in our comfortable 4x4 vehicles equipped to navigate various terrain types. Our trips accommodate 1-3 hunters maximum to ensure personalized attention and maintain a low-impact approach to the hunting grounds.
We typically begin early morning hunts 30-45 minutes before sunrise to get positioned before deer begin moving. For afternoon/evening hunts, we start approximately 3-4 hours before sunset to allow time for careful scouting and setup. Dress appropriately for the weather conditions – we recommend layering during fall hunts as temperatures can vary significantly throughout the day. We provide water and field snacks, with full meals available depending on your selected package. Safety is our top priority, with comprehensive briefings and proper equipment checks before each hunt.
