Meet Your Florida Hunting Guide: Paul Byrd
Paul is a professional and experienced hunting guide of 20+ years. Born and raised in the sweet Sunshine State, Paul was brought up hunting and fishing. His guiding career started on an out-of-state deer hunt in Wisconsin, when a couple of fellow hunters he was with wanted to come down to Florida and try their luck on some hogs. He gets more joy out of guiding others on the hunt of a lifetime than pulling the trigger himself! When Paul is not hunting for clients, he is hunting or fishing for himself. Hunting is not just a job; it is a hobby that he loves and enjoys. The key to his success is putting clients on game! You WILL get what you came for when hunting with Paul.
What Sets Us Apart from Other Florida Hunting Outfitters?
Our success at Southern Outdoor Outfitters is centered around three things:
- Year-Round Scouting
- High Integrity
- Private Hunting Land
Year-Round Scouting
Paul spends the entire year scouting out new and old areas to make sure he can put you on the animal you're after when it's time to hunt. This extensive scouting results in excellent success rates, but also increased integrity.
High Integrity
If, for whatever reason, we aren't seeing enough of your target species in the time leading up to your hunt, we will cancel and reschedule your hunt for a different time. We all know that nature follows its own rules, and hunting can be unpredictable, but we believe that you shouldn't lose out on a great opportunity because of that unpredictability. Keep in mind that there is a difference between opportunity and success, though. The only thing we can't do is pull the trigger for you!
Private Land Hunts
Southern Outdoor Outfitters is one of the only outfits in Florida that hunts exclusively on private land. Whether you're hunting huge alligators or Osceola turkeys, your hunt will take place entirely on 100,000 acres of private hunting land that we lease or own. That means less hunting pressure, better game management, and higher success rates.
Florida's Go-To Gator Hunting Outfitter
We are one of the top alligator hunting outfitters in Florida. Our alligator hunts are all private land hunts for minimally pressured gators, making your chances of shooting a true monster extremely high. Private land also means you get to hunt your alligator with any weapon - a unique opportunity! Join us for the ultimate Florida gator hunting experience.
Guided Osceola Turkey Hunts
If you need an Osceola for your turkey grand slam, we've got you covered! We hunt over 100,000 acres of private land filled with minimally pressured birds, and we have had a 100% success rate for 12+ years. Our guided Osceola hunts are meant for the serious turkey hunter!
Florida Duck Hunting Guides
Florida isn't always the first place people think of when it comes to duck hunting, but we can assure you that a Florida duck hunt is not something to be slept on! Season opens early and you can look forward to high limits and lots of action on private ponds. If you're looking for a quality Florida duck hunting outfitter, look no further!
