Check out the "Woods 'N Water" magazine. The current issue is devoted to big bucks, mostly Florida and Georgia. You can probably find it at a bookstore, gunshop or some of the mom'n'pop gas stations.

I haven't seen many. The ONLY big buck I've seen recently was while hunting 12 Mile Swamp WMA near St Augustine and saw a +/-150# 8 point taken during black powder last year.

It's all about feed. The tree farm deer aren't going to be nearly as healthy/big as the farm deer.

Here is one of the new number 10 all-time state record. 154 7/8 score. Madison, Jefferson, and leon counties in north FL are the best, as is Ocala in central FL for "big" bucks, so they say. You boys from the midwest take it easy on us florida boys and our little deer.
