White-tailed deer are the most common large game animal in Florida. Florida's subspecies (Odocoileus virginianus seminolus) is smaller than northern varieties due to the warmer climate and different habitat conditions. - Males grow and shed antlers annually. - Primarily crepuscular, meaning they're most active at dawn and dusk.

Local Game Insights
Florida City's unique ecosystem creates perfect conditions for healthy white-tailed deer populations. The Butler Beach area features a mix of grasslands and wetland edges that deer favor, especially during their morning and evening feeding times. Unlike northern whitetails, Florida deer tend to be slightly smaller but remain exceptionally wary, making the hunt both challenging and rewarding. The backcountry terrain we access by airboat offers natural travel corridors where deer movement is predictable during certain times of day. Our hunting grounds feature abundant palmetto thickets that provide ideal bedding areas, with nearby grasslands offering preferred forage. This combination creates natural funnels where our pass shooting strategy proves most effective. The mild Florida climate means deer remain active throughout more of the day than in colder regions, though early morning and late afternoon still produce the best opportunities.
Plan Your Hunting Trip Day
Your hunt begins with an early morning meet-up at our Florida City dock. We recommend wearing weather-appropriate camo and bringing sunscreen, insect repellent, and polarized sunglasses. Our airboats are equipped with comfortable seating and gun racks for safe transportation of firearms. We typically depart around sunrise and return mid-afternoon, though exact timing depends on hunting conditions and success. All necessary hunting gear is provided, including blinds when appropriate for the conditions. We accommodate groups of up to 3 hunters per boat, making this perfect for small hunting parties or family groups. Safety is our priority – we provide comprehensive safety briefings and ensure all hunting is conducted according to Florida regulations and ethical hunting standards.
