Please only vote on this pole if you are interested in attending.
Ok guys after 4 different posts being created on the topic this year and some sparked interest, I am creating a pole so that we can nail down a date for the us Floridians to meet up. I want to stress that this is not being commercialized to sell items to anyone. This event is specifically so that hunters from Florida can network, meet new friends, try different saddles and gear, learn some new climbing or set up techniques, eat, have fun, and then try to shoot a hog! I encourage you to invite would be new saddle hunters from your area and bring as many saddles as you’d like. We will meet up at Lake George WMA during small game season. No quota is required, you will need a hunting license and a WMA permit. Please check the rules pertaining to use of centerfire ammunition (if you are choosing to use a rifle for the hunt). The WMA has camp grounds and so does Volusia county nearby. After we nail down the date, we can make decisions about when the hunt will be (in my experience hunting hog, afternoon/evening hunts yield better success). Looking forward to meeting some of you and putting Florida’s growing saddle hunting community on the map!
 
Sounds like a great idea. I will attend if I’m not having to work. Im located in lake county. Lk George is only an hour at most away.

Vote for a date above and hopefully you can make it
 
Guess I’m not to good on this forum. Don’t see where the dates are. I’m planning on attending Saddlepallooza in February so my only concern would be if it conflicts with the date set for that event. I don’t think a date has been set yet but it will be on a weekend near Valentine’s Day. I’m good with any other date.

At the top of the page there should be a poll you can vote for which date. I am also intending on being at saddle palooza if it’s set up. So the three dates listed will not interfere with that event.

Jan 15-16
Feb 5-6
Mar 5-6
Are the options listed above
 
Think January dates would be best. February is ok. March is getting warmer and a little to close to my scouting time for turkeys.

Yea it’s hard to please everyone with how vastly different our ruts and seasons are throughout the state. If you end up deciding you’d wanna come hang out and shoot a pig instead lol we would love to have ya there
 
I'm liking the February date as well and I will be camping too. Which campground are you looking to reserve, and will there be lake/river access? I really enjoy hunting from my skiff is my reason.

This would be really cool if it happens. I voted for March date, but I still have to be sure of my schedule before I can actually commit because I travel a bunch for work. FWIW, I will be out of the country during the dates listed in Jan and Feb.

*Those of you who really want others to come may want to post a specific item you have and would be willing to let other folks put their paws on and try, it may inspire those who are lurking on the forum and are currently uncommitted but otherwise have an interest in some item that may be at the event. E.g., if someone were to bring a Barren Ridge Ascent climbing platform it may pique some curiosity... Hahaha

Conveniently enough I just received one for Christmas and it will be in attendance. I also have a ridge runner, squirrel steps and the hawk monkey bars. My saddle collection is pretty large too thanks in part to the classifieds this year. I think that should people show up, there will be a little something for everyone.
