Default Crossbow Gator

Check out this 12'11" monster one of my clients took with me. This guy was a handful. Tried to eat my guide when we put him in the boat. Very exciting hunt.

That gator weighed right at 470 pounds. He was a mean one.

My hunters get shots at gator that size nightly. Most panic and miss due to fear but all of my hunters get there gator. Me and my guide put on a great show and a very exciting hunt. 15 years experiance with these big animals have tought us alot and we know how to get them close.

I have alot of bow hunters each year. They do very good and get some very good gators. You can see some of the pictures of the bow hunters on the gaotr galliers at my website and get more info about a hunt. Its great too because the hunts are in the summer time when nothing else is going on.

He was a mean one.
never met one that wasnt, I have been trying to hunt gators in Ga for a few years now but you have to be selected for a tag, I have had no luck. Is it the same way in FL? How much is an out of state permit?

A gator tag for non-residents is over $1000. Thats why most guys who come here book a hunt. The hunt price is only $350 more per hunterthan that and it includes the license and tags plus all the gear and there expertice. Florida really nails the out-of-staters for gator tags.
