The family is coming off a great trip to Florida. We were there thanks to the invitation from a gentleman I met in bear camp last spring, Rick Hollenback. Rick’s wife had taken a nice bear, and we spent some time chatting.
Come to find out, Rick had leases near Lake Okeechobee and invited our whole family along to hunt. Once Rick showed us the property, he turned us loose to hunt it on our own. Though the turkey hunting was tough, I managed to call in and take one mature tom. It took three days of hard hunting but the effort paid-off with an exceptional Osceola weighing 22 pounds, sporting a 10” beard and heavy spurs over an inch long.
We tried getting a tom for Tiffany, but with the birds being stubborn, it simply didn’t come together. We had one tom almost close within range, but he would never leave his hens.
The boys had a blast hunting hogs. Kazden connected first, via spot & stalk, and later got the prettiest hog I’ve ever seen. Braxton nailed a big sow, as did Tiffany and myself. I also managed a pretty good boar by stalking in.
The highlight of the hog hunt was covering ground in the swamp buggy. I’d heard about these machines for years, and knew they were a popular rig for hog hunters in this area, but had no idea what impressive machines they really were! Serious man toys!
On the hog hunt we used shotguns with 0000 buckshot, topped with Trijicon’s RMR. On Nosler’s fancy AR (stands for ArmaLite, NOT Assault Rifle or Automatic Rifle), chambered in .223, we used a tandem scope featuring Trijicon’s 3×9 AccuPoint and an RMR, for close encounters. A .223 isn’t enough for tough hogs, one might think?…Well, Nosler’s new Defense, Bonded Solid Base bullets in 64 grains were amazing. Every hog they hit, they hammered. The bullets we recovered had impressive weight retention and dropped hogs up to 200 lbs., on the spot! We also pulled off some spot and stalk action with a .22-250, also shooting Nosler bullets.
A tool we wouldn’t be without in 
Florida is the ThermaCell mosquito repellent unit. We had multiple units going at all times, and they kept mosquitos away morning and night. We’ll be using them upon our return to Florida in early May!
One of Rick’s good friends, Doug Hamilton, was kind enough to take us on his airboat. We went to a secluded place and ran up a little stream, often crossing expanses of dry land. We saw over 50 crocs’, many of which exceeded the 10-foot mark, with a couple over 11-feet! One little hole we stopped in had 31 crocs’ lurking around the boat, some within 3-feet of us!
We all had a blast and it was great for the kids to see how fellow American’s on the other side of the continent go about hunting great eating game. We also made some new friends, which is always a bonus, and what hunting is all about. Watch for these hunts which will air later this year on Trijicon’s The Hunt, on the Sportsman Channel.
