2026 Osceola Hunt

[RailRoader]

Looking for recommendations on a guide for a south Florida hunt in 2026. Preferably in the south zone.

Have nothing but a warning to be certain and check all references thoroughly.  One group of scammers were charging big dollars for what were essentially "Butterballs".  Rumor has it that the prices have risen since the new non-resident restrictions were implemented for 2026.  Turkeys for Tomorrow did a drawing where they raffled two Florida hunts but I don't remember the outfitters name.  Check TFT's web page.  The Jim Shockey Book Your Hunt.com page had two hunts.  Both well into the north zone.  Good luck.

I hired a duck guide for fulvous whistling ducks in South Florida that the presidents son had hunted with

He expected me to shoot one off of a no hunting safety area with an illegally suppressed 22 rifle

So I wouldn't put much stock in the presidents son reference....

Some shady shady guides down there in South FL

There most certainly is quite a few shady outfits, but Osceola Outdoors is not one of them.

There are 3-4 that are the most reputable, everyone knows who they are. The top outfits are likely booked already for next season - and they all pretty much $4,000+ for 1 bird starting in 2026.
