Camo, check with the florida fish and game, I believe in Fla, their outfitters need to be licensed to run a business, and to lease state ground to conduct hunts on, also check with their hometown Better Business bureau, even if they're not registered with them, sometimes people file reports anyhow. Try to get a personal name from the man(or woman) that runs or owns the business and PAY do to a back ground check on that name, it may just be a small price to pay out to save you money in the longrun. Its a touchy thing to book hunts without personal references, the client that called you could be in on the deal, a sort of double team effort. Its truely a shame that people cant be trusted these days, I like to believe that hunters wouldnt rip off other hunters, but they might be scammers. ALSO , get more info from other outfitters in that same area, alot of times a bunch of good ones will weed out the bad ones, cause they dont like bad ones making them look bad too. think about joining a turkey hunting forum or two and posting this same question on there, try the OSAGE ROOST TURKEY FORUM , TURKEY AND TURKEY HUNTING FORUM and CUSTOM CALLS ONLINE FORUM, another good one for down south info is the GON.COM(GEORGIA OUTDOOR NEWS). Best of luck to you if this trip becomes a reality, and be sure to let us all know your results, good or bad
