White-tailed deer are incredibly adaptable animals that thrive across diverse habitats throughout North America. In Florida, they've adapted particularly well to wetland environments, where specialized hunting techniques like airboat access can be particularly effective. - Can run at speeds up to 30 mph and jump obstacles up to 8 feet high. - Possess excellent senses, particularly smell, which makes approach challenging in open terrain.

Summary
Tuesday November at Butler Beach delivered perfect fall hunting conditions for our airboat adventure. Ray Chaters provides specialized airboat hunts that access prime hunting grounds unreachable by conventional methods. We focused on spot-and-stalk and pass shooting techniques, targeting mallard and white-tailed deer throughout the day. The terrain at Butler Beach creates ideal ambush hunting opportunities with natural cover that allowed us to approach without getting winded. Clear weather conditions throughout the day gave us excellent visibility for tracking movement across the landscape. Our crew stayed patient and focused, which paid off when we connected on both mallard and a nice white-tailed buck. These airboat hunts combine local expertise with specialized equipment to deliver a hunting experience that maximizes your chances at both waterfowl and deer during the November season.

Highlights of The legacy hunt
The Legacy Hunt with Ray Chaters delivers a unique combination of airboat access and premium hunting opportunities. Our specialized airboat allows us to reach pristine hunting areas around Butler Beach that remain untouched by other hunters, giving you a significant advantage.

The airboat not only provides transportation but serves as an effective hunting platform that allows us to cover more territory and adapt quickly as conditions change throughout the day.
Local Game Insights
White-tailed deer in the Florida City region thrive in the diverse wetland habitats accessible by airboat. November brings the rut into full swing, making bucks more active and responsive to calling techniques. The deer in this area tend to follow predictable movement patterns between feeding areas and bedding locations, which we've mapped extensively over years of guiding. The Butler Beach area features a mix of hammock islands and marsh edges that create perfect ambush opportunities where deer naturally funnel through the landscape.
Hunting these deer requires patience and careful attention to wind direction, as their sense of smell is exceptionally keen in these open wetland environments. We'll position ourselves downwind of known travel corridors and utilize natural terrain features to break up our outline. The airboat allows us to access areas where pressure from other hunters is minimal, giving you opportunities at mature bucks that have learned to avoid more accessible hunting grounds.
Plan Your Hunting Trip Day
Your airboat hunting adventure begins early morning at our designated meeting point in Florida City. We recommend wearing layered clothing appropriate for the season, as November mornings can start cool but warm up throughout the day. Our custom airboat comfortably accommodates up to 3 guests plus your instructor, with ample storage for gear and harvested game. We provide all necessary hunting equipment, though experienced hunters are welcome to bring their preferred firearms (subject to Florida regulations).
We'll spend approximately 6-8 hours in the field, with a mid-day break for a packed lunch. The airboat allows us to cover significant territory and adapt our hunting strategy based on game movement and weather conditions. Safety is our top priority, with comprehensive briefings provided before departure and all required safety equipment maintained to the highest standards. Please remember to bring your valid Florida hunting license and appropriate tags for the species we'll be pursuing.
