Most the landowners can't be bothered with the turkey hunts , it's very time consuming , and there is lots of work to do involving the hunt - Checking on the cattle is more important to most of them
The most important thing is that you actually have LARGE tract of property with a good huntable population of turkeys on it , this is no easy feat - next you got to have guides that have free time away from work or actually turkey hunting .....
30 years ago Lovett Williams / Fish Eating Creek , was collecting $700 , and 10 years ago they right up there in the $2500 price mark .....guess what happened to fish eating creek outfitters ? Gone , and many more will dissappear as the property is developed or yanked back to the state for mismanagement
Hear me out now.... The price of a real Osceola hunt ( Orlando area and south ) in 10 - 20 years will go well above $4000 possibly $5-6000 , why? ..... Cause they only kill about 250-300 gobblers in that Osceola area on public wmas , and the private is disappearing or being developed at a very rapid pace , places that were miles and miles of country roads now have neighborhoods --
The state of Alaska kills more a Dall ram , than Florida kills Osceolas on public property ......
