Florida Hunt
Question:
Yea, watch out for the black bear around there. They have a habit of climbing the tree your tree stand is in. A friend 5 years ago had to shoot a bear that decided it wanted the tree he was in more than he did. He was a cop and got into all sorts of trouble with Fla F&G before they decided he shot out of necessity.

etc.. **The "pipeline unit" is the Dog hunt area. Deer populations are lower (higher ratio of acres per deer) — also, it get’s *awfully* crowded. Don’t hunt close to the roads or powerlines! There are people that will park their truck in the middle of the powerline and hunt from the top of the truck with a high powered rifle! Not safe! <in my book> ** The Lake Delancy unit has a higher population of deer. It is also a still hunt area. I live just a few miles from the edge of the Ocala N.

This will be my first hunt here in Florida and I’ve decided that this year I will try my luck at the Ocala National Forest. The two spots I’ve been scouting the most are Pipeline Management Unit near Half Moon Lake there’s a nice meadow there that I believe will be a good spot. The second is the Lake Delancy Management Unit just north/west of the Lake Delancy. For those of you who are familiar with the area.
