Guest MissouriHunter Posted February 11, 2005 Report Share Posted February 11, 2005 I am getting ready to go down and hunt turkeys in Florida. I will be hunting in the north central region but i was wondering if anyone knew where Osceola turkeys were found in FLorida. Are they throughout the state or farther south. I was just wonderiong because i didn't know if i was going to be hunting easterns or osceola. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WHISKEYSWAMP Posted February 11, 2005 Report Share Posted February 11, 2005 Re: Osceola Turkeys I shot 2 around the Gainseville area last year. I believe I was pretty close to their northern boundary. good luck!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HuntnMa Posted February 11, 2005 Report Share Posted February 11, 2005 Re: Osceola Turkeys i have always been told there is an imaginary liine that runs through Gainsville, the osecolas are south of it....not saying that Gainsville doesnt have em....whiskeyswamp obviously got 2 there i would say hybrids are what youd see more of....i hunt the orlando area, well just outside of orlando, there aint no arguing that these birds are osceolas....good luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redbeard Posted February 11, 2005 Report Share Posted February 11, 2005 Re: Osceola Turkeys I've been told those north of Orlando are hybrids, the southern birds are the Osceola's. NWTF's website should have an definition for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
