Sweet deal! I haven't even got to go yet this year. I have 4 permits and don't look like I'll get to use any.

What a great bunch of pictures, down4dacount! Son, daughter, turkeys and big ol' cats, can't get much better! The old oak is a real beauty, too! Do y'all see panthers on a regular basis? I've only had the privilege of seeing one in my almost 70 years and that was in Orange County back about 50 years ago.

I've been hunting the glades since 84 and this is the 1st time I see panthers . I've heard their growl and scream before . I have seen 2 other ones but on the side of the highway . Thanks

Great photos man. It's good that your boy is doing it with you. I really like to see the younger folks having fun in the woods. Too many nowadays spend their time in front of some kind of screen making their brains jello...
