And the hurricane changes everything!

They logged off a good portion of the public I hunt and it is totally unrecognizable. That said, I cant imagine what it would look like if a hurricane came through and all them trees were still in the wood, but just tossed all over.
 
So as Hurricane Dorian Bears down on my part of Florida (central)..assuming it hits..all scouting was for not. Lessons I learned from last Hurricane:
1) Season may not open on time.
2) where i normally go will be flooded (lowlands and river bottom)s. Have some really neat pictures from my camera of deer and dry land that i documented as it the rained became part of the lake.
3) Trees will may not be there. Luckily we are not allowed to hang stands till this weekend. Probably wont..so they are crushed..or it gets so flooded that i would need an airboat to get to them.
4) Gators will be seen where normally you wouldn't see them.
5)Turkeys will be gone and may not come back for a few years.
6) patterns will be disrupted.
7) more snakes
I Will need to find high ground and oak trees.

We shall see

I think I saw ur name on the map at a place i hunt

Can’t see the map from my phone to check though

Hey it is a small world. I work in Orange Heights and like in Williston. Drive by that area every 3rd day. I hunt over in Gulf Hammock and Goethe

I live in dunnellon and hunt goethe as well. Not the hammock though. Basically dog hunters there
 
One positive you get from the storms are the great sunsets and sunrises you get on the days leading up to and after the storm. I tried talking some pics but my camera sucks. Sky was/is on fire tonight
It definitely was. I have about 3000 acre pasture in front of my house (west). It looked awesome
 
You mainly hunt the south end? All that has to be super wet right now even prior to the hurricane
