According to a report filed by the Florida Highway Patrol, the driver, Robert Charles Sadousky, 34, left the west side of the.road and crashed into a tree. "The driver had been drinking and was seriously injured in the crash. Charges are pending due to a DUI investigation,'" officers said. Doctors' Memorial Hospital Emergency Medical Services responded to the crash. "There are quite a number of options we have looked at in depth," he said. "It's been a difficult challenge due to the. .environmental issues and scarcity of significant parcels of land close to the river that we can use for a boat ramp facility. "Fortunately, one option has .risen to the surface that appears to be feasible. This option is a nine- acre property inconjunction with a lot that provides 125 feet of river frontage connecting the nine-acre tract to the river. "It's a reasonably short distance upstream from the bridge on the Dixie County side of the river. This is as close to the mouth of the river as we could come up with." Greene said there are some moderate wetlands issues to deal with, but the land did have willing sellers that are working cooperatively with the committee. The two parcels have. separate owners. The owner of the smaller parcel, he said, was willing to consider a land swap deal.

On Thursday, Nov. 10, the Perry Garden Club will place a wreath at the Blue Star Marker in the median on Highway 19.South. The marker is part of a national program which honors all service men and women who have defended the United States of America. The Blue Star became an icon in World War II and was seen on flags and banners in homes for sons and daughters away at war, as well as in churches and businesses. Veterans Day--Friday, Nov. 11--the Taylor County High School JROTC will host its annual veterans program, beginning at 11 a.m. Those planning to attend are asked to assemble in the school gymnatorium by 10:45 a.m. All veterans, soldiers and their families are invited. A wreath-laying ceremony will be held at the Taylor County Courthouse following the 11 a.m. program. Afterwards, all past and present military personnel are invited to a special luncheon in their honor. Starting at 1 p.m., the event will be held at Forest Capital Hall against a pictorial display saluting local soldiers. On Saturday, Nov. 12, American Legion Post #96 will sponsor its annual free "Veterans Day" breakfast from 7-9 a.m. at the Legion Hall on East Veterans Drive.

Dixie County tapped for boat ramp - Editorial A-2 Taco Times November 9, 2005 Evacuee thanks community for support during hurricane Dear Editor: I wish to thank so many people who helped my children and myself during our recent evacuation from Hurricane Wilma. I came to Perry with my three children, planning to stay for the weekend with my mother until the storm left South-Florida. Because of extensive damage to the, school where I teach and lack of' electricity at my home, I was forced to stay longer. Because of information given to me by the hurricane hotline, I planned to stay for several weeks and enrolled my children in school. Because I was not prepared for an extended stay, I did not have clothes for my children to wear or other needed supplies. My mother suggested I contact a couple agencies in the area for help. To my surprise, everyone I contacted was more than eager to help. I wish to personally thank the members-of the First Baptist Church for helping with clothing and dinner for my family, to Rhonda Brooks for giving me a voucher to get warm clothes, and, to the Hershbergers for getting us in contact with other people who were able to help us. Also, I thank Ms. Towles who supplied warm. coats for my children and other food supplies. Luckily I was able to return home the following week and return to work and resume my life. I will never forget the kindnesses of the people of Taylor County and now understand why my mother loves this area so much. Sincerely, Michelle Sawyers Hendry County Letters to the Editor 'Some claims don't stand up to close scrutiny' Dear Editor: The most compelling reason I can think of for not putting the coal-fired power, plant issue on the ballot is that many protesters of almost anything tend to get so emotionally involved in their cause that they abandon reason. They gather information, much of it ,wrong, that seems to support their position. They rally supporters and crowd public meetings in an attempt to show that "the. people" want whatever it is. they are advocating. Uninformed voters may believe what they see and hear and vote against their own best interests. City should keep Dear Editor: The. history :of the Dorsett Stadium/Pace Field transfer to the school board needs clarification. Last year a majority of the city council voted to give Dorsett, Stadium/Pace Field to the school board in an attempt to balancethe, city budget. SThe city council acted without negotiating a contract for city recreational usage. Some on the council, rationalized this action because they felt Dorsett Stadium would not be needed by the city with the opening of the new county sports complex. This vision was short-lived when funding problems prompted the county commission to eliminate football and baseball from Phase 1, of the sports complex. This left the community football and baseball recreational programs in need 'of all \city Most citizens who are in favor of a project assume that no reasonable person could object to, something they see as beneficial, so they, remain out: of the public eye, relying on their elected officials to use good judgment. Tallahassee is now facing a power shortage in the near future because its citizens voted 10 years ago to:own no coal- fired plant in or adjacent to Leon County, based largely on environmental issues. It sounded good at the time, but nowv they are paying for that vote. I have not advocated building a coal-fired plant power plant in our county, though Iam not against it. Dorsett Stadium? facilities. I questioned the wisdom of giving Dorsett Stadium, to the school board under the circumstances the community was facing. I was able to get a majority of the council to reconsider the SDorsett decision and maintain city ownership. The direction of the city council was to.seek reasonable support from the school board Dorsett Stadium/Pace Field should be the cornerstone for our community baseball and football programs. The Dorsett Stadium/Pace Complex has the potential to meet ,many of the needs- of our community. The.'City of Perry needs, to maintain ownership to insure recreational baseball and football remain viable in the community.

I have objected to the misinformation that has been used to oppose the plant, and the.fact that opponents offer no practical alternative as a power source. Some. very intelligent and honorable citizens have made some claims that don't stand up to close scrutiny. They have read of the ill effects of coal-fired plants in other places, two or three decades ago. They assume that any new plant will be as bad. Thus, we are asked to believe that the plant will be deadly; it will spew noxious gases and.poisons into our air and water and onto our land; old - people and children will be particularly vulnerable to its catastrophic emissions. No one will, be safe People will be dying soon after it starts up. There are undocumented claims that Taylor County has high rates of cancer, pulmonary problems and diseases such as ALS. There was a reference to parents in Jacksonville who claimed that a new plant caused their children to become autistic, although there were many autistic-children in that city before the plant \as built. There are -, Please see page 8 Writer again asks for vote on coal plant Dear Editor: What are our county commissioners? They are five elected officials who by virtue of being elected by the people of this county think that they are demi-gods. They think that they were given 'carte blanche' to do with out lives as they please! They seem to think that by being .elected it makes them all knowing and all powerful. There were many' citizens (read that, as voters) ,at the last commission meeting. I had asked' my commissioner, previously, to. allow the county to vote on the coal-burning power plant that is, being proposed. He told me, "you* can vote on it the next time I run for re-election." Let me assure you :hdat he will not get my support or 'vote in the future, and I 'had supported him in the past. Fool me once, 'shame on, me, 'it will not. happen the second time! Under the guise of needed jobs, the coal-burning power plant is being rammed down our, throats. Yes, we need good jobs and large numbers of them. The coal burning power plant is only proposing 150 jobs, of these how many will be filled by company people? There is no promise of them going to locals. We have been a one-horse town and county for as long as I can remember and that horse is getting old. Is he stumbling? I wonder. His droppings still stink. to high heaven. We do not need another old horse with stinking droppings. We need clean industry with clean jobs. Are our county commissioners being bought off by the promises of big business also known as Reedy Creek (aka Disney). One more time, I-ask the county commissioners to allow the voting people of this county to vote on the acceptability of a coal-burning power plant in Taylor County. Sam H. Duckworth, Msgt USAF Ret.

Instead, the commission can hear the issue, take it under advisement, and then agenda it for a subsequent meeting, "giving county staff time' to get information to the commissioners," Humphries said. Taylor County resident' Janet Monroe was on Monday's agenda to "address the board regarding residential property values near the coal plant and other personal concerns/questions," and Jarnes Bass was scheduled to "address the board with specific concerns about the coal plant."', At the start of the meeting, Gunter made several changes'to the agenda, including moving the motion to, adjourn to the end, after the two speakers. As with the last commission meeting, Gunter asked that any public comments in reference to the plant be held until the end of the meeting during the power plant segment.

She said she was worried about the health effects of the coal plant as, well how it would adversely effect her property values. "To say property values will not go down is outrageous," .Monroe' said.

D (8 ) 2 OPEN FRIDAY .r= ,OPEN FRIDAY , r, -- , v By AARON PORTWOOD One week after.turning in a record-setting performance and clinching a play-off berth for the first time in six years with the most exciting game in recent memory, the Taylor County Bulldogs self destructed in a 10-7 loss to Jefferson County in what many may call the ugliest game in recent memory: It began with kicker Sean Crowley missing the ball on the opening' kickoff--giving Jefferson County (4-5) possession at the Bulldogs' 37-yard line--and never got any better for a (4-6) Taylor County team playing without three starters on offense. The two teams combined for more penalty yards (147) than offense (144 yards), fumbled a. combined seven times, completed just four passes for 35 yards and averaged 1.3 yards per carry. Freshman 'runningback Bryckowski Jackson--coming off of a one-game suspension--carried the ball.a season-high 31 times for 131 yards and the Bulldogs' only score, but Taylor County finished the game with just 82 total yards of offense, due in part to bad snaps, fumbles, penalties and lack of a passing attack. With senior QB Genario McNealy (85 of 174 passing, 1,649 yards, 14 TD's) suspended due .to disciplinary reasons and missing two other starters (Drew\ Southerland and Joseph Proenza) the Bulldogs' offense' struggled to move the ball or put points on the board. Taylor Count\' came into the game averaging 21 points pet game and 289 yards of offense (186 yards passing), but managed only 59 yards on the ground and 23 yards passing (82 total yards). Operating out of a two-fullback power running formation most of the night, Jackson followed Sean Padgett, Georgie Armstrong and the left side of the' offensive line for a season-high 131 yards rushing, but was thrown for a loss or no gain eight times,. Back-up QB Marquis' Ellisnever had time. to throw, completing just 3 of 9 passes for 23 yards, apd -;as tackled while he was handing -off several times, finishing with four sacks for -35 yards, 'while ananaging 10 positive yards on, two scrambles. Jackson and fellow freshman rtinningback Curtis Jones (two carries. 0 yards) both had problems -,holding on to the ball, as the .-Bulldogs fumbled five times and lost one. but'bad snaps were the 'most costly miscues of the night. A bad punt snap 'sailed oer *-punier John Crowley's, head for a 136-yard loss that gave Jefferson the ball at the Bulldog three-yard' Line and set up the Tigers' only touchdown. SOn Taylor's next possession, a '-bad snap on a 36-yard field goal, Iattempt los(11 yards and ruined a chance of later tying or winning .the game. With 47 yards lost on.two bad -isnaps and Ellis being sacked for a -net loss of 25 yards: the Bulldogs :finished with 41 carries for '59 ,yards rushing. k Penalties (8 for -90 yards) were ,also extremely\ costly, as Tony SPowell's third-quarter 43-yard punt --return for a touchdown was called back for an illegal block and four Taylor drives stalled due to penalties and woeful pass blocking. SAfter the Bulldogs scored early rin the fourth quarter to pull within ,10-7 and grabbed the momentum as the Taylor County defense i- turned in another impressive series, Slby pushing the'Tigers, backwards Seven yards, Taylor County nearly -blocked a punt.'After the Bulldog Offense picked up a first down, but stalled near midfield, John Crowley's punt pinned the Tigers' deep.at their own nine-yard line. STaylor's defense stepped up Again and stopped Jefferson g' County to force a punt, but the , Bulldogs were called for a crucial i "roughing the punter" penalty that S gave the Tigers a first down and ,S allowed them ,.to milk precious ,-- seconds off the clock. c. Despite the poor offensive L showing, Taylor had'one last shqt at winning, the game and posting their first non-losing regular S orts Playoff game Friday in Pensacola season record in seven years when they took over possession at the Jefferson 45 with 2:47 left in the game. However; a five-yard procedure penalty was followed by Jackson being hit in the backfield for a three-yard loss on a blitz and the Bulldogs were penalized for delay of game for another five-yard loss. On 2nd and 23, Ellis completed' his longest pass of the night thanks to a sensational, leaping 15-yard catch by Sebastian Ingram, but was pressured into two straight incompletions on third and fourth down, 'allowing Jefferson to run up the middle three straight times and kill the clock. Taylor was.also out of timeouts after having to use at least two due to having only 10 men on the field. Despite dressing only 18 players (only two seniors) and having eight starters quit in recent weeks, Jefferson County's defense took advantage of the Bulldogs' one- dimensional attack by stacking nine or 10 players on the line of scrimmage andblitzing on every play, hitting Ellis and Jackson in the backfield repeatedly. However, the Bulldog defense kept Taylor County in the game with inspired play that resulted in Jefferson's equally anemic offensive attack gaining only 62 total yards. The Bulldog defense recorded six sacks for -24 yards, made 16 tackles for loss'or no gain and held the Tigers to -4 yards of total offense in the second half. The Tigers managed 50 yards rushing on 40 carries and completed just one of three passes for 12 yards, while committing 11 penalties for -67 yards. .The Tigers sophomore runningback Lucius Wade carried 20 times for 47 yards and was tackled for no gain or a loss 10 times. Junior QB Breon Parker was sacked six times and finished with -16 yards on nine carries. Sophomore tailback Tim Crumity carried four times for -7 yards and Desrick Jones came in late to run six times for 25 yards, but had three carries for no.gain. The Tigers started the game with excellent field position after the Bulldog kickoff actually went backward three yards but Bill\ Joe Wigglesworth and ,Armstrong combined to tackle Wade for a six- yard loss and Cole Revels sacked Parker for a six-yard loss to force a punt. Taylor began with the power running game clicking, as Jackson snapped off gaines of five, seven : and :eight yards' behind' the blocking of Adam Cook and 'Padgett. However, 'an illegal procedure penalty put the Bulldogs in hole and Jackson was thrown for a loss before Ellis underthrew Powell on a 3rd and 10 pass. John Crowley's 29-yard punt gave Jefferson the ball on their own 36 and Wade broke a 37-yard run that would have been a touchdown if not for Powell's solo tackle at.the Bulldogs' 27- yard line.' Jake Meacham made a tackle for loss and Powell intercepted Parker's pass in the endzone only to have the play overturned due to a roughing the passer penalty.' Armstrong and Meacham responded with' back-to-back tackles for loss forcing Jefferson to kick a 35-yard field goal with 3:14 left in the first. Jackson -returned the kickoff nine yards.to the,29, but fumbled the ball away on first down. Shane Bailey sacked Parker, and forced a fumble on the ,very next play to give the ball back to Taylor County. Jones had trouble handling the football, but gained three yards and Jackson picked up a first down, but Ellis was sacked for a 12-yard loss before completing a three yard pass to Greg Sneed. On the final play of the first quarter Ellis had to leap up to grab a high snap and was sacked for an eight-yard loss when Jefferson broke through on an all-out blitz. On the first play of the second quarter, Revels' punt snap sailed. over Crqwley's head down to the three yard line for a loss of 36 yards. opponents and have had similar results against those teams. Jefferson Both teams lost to Vernon (who beat Taylor 35-16 and Pensacola, 30-22) and beat Chipley (Taylor won 24-21 and Pensacola won 25- 14). Both teams also defeated Marianna (Taylor won 36-33 and Pensacola won 31-14). . However, the Bulldogs lost to NFC 45-22 just three weeks ago and Pensacola pulled off the upset in the regular season finale. Kickoff for this Friday's game in Pensacola is 7 p.m. CST (8 p.m. Perry time). upset Jefferson scored two plays later on a one-yard QB sneak to make the score 10-0 with 11:13 left in the first half. Sneed returned the kickoff 26 yards to the Taylor 42 and Jackson carried four straight times for 23 yards and two first down. Ellis nearly threw an interception and the Bulldogs went back to Jackson who picked up 19 yards on two straight carries down to the 14. However, Jones came in and fumbled on 2nd and 1 to lose three yards, Jackson was thrown for a two-yard loss and another bad snap on a field goal attempt gave the Tigers the ball at their own 30. Revels, Kendall Thompson and Cook made big stops to force a punt, but penalties killed the next Bulldog drive, which ended with Jackson taking a direct snap on a fake punt, but coming up one-yard shy of a first down at the Taylor County 47. Time ran out on Jefferson as 'they were driving to score at the Bulldogs' nine-yard line. Penalties, poor blocking and big defensive plays by both teams dominated the third quarter as neither team mounted a serious drive and Ellis was sacked twice trying to pass. The. Bulldogs' biggest playmaker and leading scorer '(seven TDs) on the season, Powell, who never .touched the ball on offense, did return a punt 43 yards for a touchdown only to have it called back on a-blocking penalty. Gerald Walker, Wigglesworth, Meacham and Armstrong made big tackles for loss and the Bulldogs began their only scoring drive at the Jefferson 35 after having to call time out after a change of possession for having only 10 men in on offense. SSneed set up ihe scoring drive with a 22-\jrd punt return and Jackson carried four straight times for 15 yards before Ellis scrambled away from pressure to pick up four and a first down at the 11. Jackson did the rest, carrying four straight times and scoring on a three-yard TD run off the left side behind an explosive block by Sean'Padgett.: Sean Crowley's kick made the "score 10-7 with 10 minutes left in the game. Revels, Padgett, Cook and Wigglesworth stuffed Jefferson's next drive for a loss of seven yards and Walker and Wigglesworth nearly blocked the punt. Taylor took over on the Jefferson 36 and Jackson picked up 13 yards on first down with some Determined, hard-nosed running. However, Jackson was hit in the backfield for a two-yard loss and 'picked up only three on 2nd and 12 before Powell dropped a long sideline pass from Ellis near the Tiger 20-yard line. Crowley's punt pinned the Tigers deep 'and the Bulldogs appeared poised to pull out a come-from-behind victory when the' defense forced 'a punt. However, Walker was flagged on a questionable roughing the punter penalty, giving the Tigers. a first down and opportunity to run more time off the clock. The Tigers lost nine yards on three plays and punted again from their.own 21. Sneed returned the kick into Tiger territory before fumbling and recovering.at the end of the play; to set up the Bulldogs final drive. An illegal procedure penalty and delay of game penalty put the Bulldogs in a hole and Jackson was tackled behind the line of scrimmage before Ellis completed' the .15yard pass to Ingram and misfired in the face of heavy blitz pressure on the final two pass attempts. The Bulldogs will travel to Pensacola Catholic Friday night' for the first round of the Class 2A play-offs, taking on the Pensacola Catholic Crusaders', who upset North Florida Christian, 37-35 Friday night.

The cost to enter the game will be $1, "or whatever a person feels like donating," Brewer said, and the proceeds will go toward the TCMS girls program. "The excitement is building as the girls are not sure. what to expect from their older competition," Brewer said. Eighth grader Hayden Barton'was puzzled as she stated, "I don't know what they are thinking or what they' have planned but there is no way they can beat us. My dad doesn't even know what a soccer ball is." Hayden's dad was quick to reply when he heard his daughter's remarks. "We could play with an egg and it wouldn't matter because those girls can't kick hard enough to worry about even breaking it. Hopefully the'scoreboard can count high enough to cover the points we will score."

Can we recognize 'MisS Woodlands'? Dear Editor: This is to commend the Florida Forest Festival volunteers for the hard work you do each year to make this event happen for our community. I must.say however, that I %vas- somewhat concerned as an African American citizen when I saw certain entities in the parade. When I thought about it I accepted the fact that it was a part of our history. 'f"think that as a community we missed a, golden opportunity. There was an entity that was overlooked. In the. beginning, when we were in different schools, we also had an African American pageant which had queens each year. They were called "Miss Woodland." I think it would be great to include and recognize these beautiful women also. It did not occur to me until the week of the parade when the paper came out with all the former queens. What can we do to recognize our past "Miss \\ oudlands" in the future? Thank you, Jeanette G. Flowers 'for about 10 years now. I am a Vietnam vet, and I know there are I do however commend Pat roman\ more veterans in Taylor Patterson for having the courage County like me. I willingly to stand up for the citizens and -fought for my country because I make a statement several weeks Sbelieive in what it stands for. ago to her fellow commissioners ^'What I found particularly that we should have had a vote, u.ffnsi.i'.cu is the fact that the whether it be yea or nay. ciOiity commissioners had decided Pat Comins commissionerss praised *S '-r .r; ;' ..

Yet, our 'life e'. pecans continues to increase, year at er year. Is it possible that the ill effects of the coal-fired plants are greatly overstated? *I think we have the best group: of county commissioners that have. held that office in many, many years. They are reasonable and intelligent. We elected them to represent us, but they cannot possibly satisfy every constituent. I am convinced that they have carefully considered, all of these things and more, and have concluded that the benefits of the power plant 'will outweigh whatever disadvantages it might bring. Reasonable people may disagree, and their voices should be heard,, but. I hope they will. recognize that every home and every business built in Taylor County will, produce air and/or water pollution,. here or somewhere else. 'Strong control' on industrial emissions are our assurance that we can continue to meet the energy demands of our growing population without undue harm to humans or the environment. Ray Evans Can America survive? Dear Editor: Can America survive with such division? There are influential political leaders within America that decry the advances towards a democratic form of.government in the Middle East and specifically Iraq. Consider there are now 211,000 trained security force (military and police) in Iraq functioning today. These are Iraqi citizens who are out every day confronting and, combating terrorists. There are 155,000 American military on the ground there. My brother is a Marine officer who spent considerable time in Fallujah, a hotbed of terrorist activity. One of his primary responsibilities was to oversee the training of these native military and police forces. Eighteen months ago there were zero Iraqis in a security force. 78.6% of the citizens of Iraq voted for a new constitution. Does 'the media trumpet this amazing statistic? No. They have an agenda. The' leaders of the Democratic Party here in America, tell us this is another Vietnam. The media tells America everyday this is another Vietnam. Why? Because they honestly and, sincerely want it to become another Vietnam. They want Operation Iraqi Freedom to, fail. They want the insurgents to win. They want Iraq to be run by a despot even worse than Hussein. Why? Because it would give them more personal power in the US. They believe it is a ticket to re-taking the White House and the Congress. This week we have heard how the President and the administration have knowingly used fraudulent intelligence to prosecute-the war. Of course the fingerpointers overlook President Bush used the-same data that president Clinton and his administration used in vocalizing the same threat during his term. These naysayers are either stupid or intellectually dishonest. Which is it? Fortunately, Americans will decide and not the media. With faith in our God and nation, J.

At the September meeting, FWC Commissioners voted to keep the area in its current hunting format. The area had been under consideration to be converted to a deer-dog hunting area. In February, Commissioners S approved changing the Spring SCreek Unit of the Big Bend WMA from a dog hunt area to a still : hunt area. Because of that loss of public land available for deer-dog hunting, Commissioners were asked to consider allowing deer- dog hunting on Tide Swamp. The Commissioners directed staff to work with people with an interest in this issue to determine if the change. was feasible. The first step in the process was to send out a mass mailing to Everyone who had applied for a Squota hunt permit on the Tide Swamp or Spring Creek units for. Sthe 2004-2005 season. The letter, sent to more than 650 hunters, explained the process and requested input. The next step was to compile two lists of the responses (supporting deer-dog hunting and supporting status quo) and present them at two open houses, held in Tampa and Steinhatchee. The data collected from the responses and from the open houses were used by staff to develop their recommendation, which was presented to the Commissioners. FWC staff recommended Keeping Tide Swamp as a still S hunt area.

Dove hunting, one of Florida's favorite hunting seasons, began recently, and other migratory game bird seasons are just around the corner. Hunters may take mourning and white-winged doves during three hunting periods statewide. The first phase ended Oct. 24, but the second phase is Nov. 12-27 and the third phase runs Dec. 10 Jan. 8.

In addition to having a hunting license, a migratory bird permit is also required to take migratory game birds in Florida.

Again, if you are hunting hogs on public land, check the WMA brochure of the area to learn how they are classified. Hunters are permitted to take deer and wild hogs over feeding stations on private land, as long as the feeding station has been established for at least six months prior to the season and is maintained year-round. You may not use. bait on WMAs no matter the season or the game. It is illegal to take deer using rimfire cartridges or non- expanding, full-metal case ammunition. Shooting swimming deer is also against the law. Inserted within the general gun season is the highly anticipated antlerless deer season, better known as "doe week." On private lands, these seven days run Dec. 17-23 in the Northwest Zone, Nov, 19-25 in the Central Zone and Nov. 5-11 in the South Hunting Zone. During doe week, deer of either sex can be taken (except for spotted fawns) on private lands. The .daily bag limit during this week-long season is one buck and one doe or two bucks. You may, not take two does in one day like you can during archery season. Also, regardless of season, sex or number of permits, hunters.are never allowed to harvest more than two deer per day under any circumstances. Taking antlerless . deer is prohibited or limited to *antlerless deer permit holders on most public lands, so please consult the particular WMA brochure before you hunt. Everyone hunting deer with dogs on private or public lands, where it is allowed must have their names and addresses displayed on their dogs' collars, as required by the Hunter Responsibility Rule. Hunters must contain their dogs to the tract of land they have permission to hunt and not allow them to wander off it or the hunter is subject to a citation. this year, hunters using dogs to take deer on private lands must apply for the new statewide deer- dog registration program. This rule does not apply for, training or hunting deer dogs on public lands and WMAs. The mandatory registration may be issued to hunting, clubs, landowners or anyone having the rights to hunt.deer with dogs on a particular tract of land upon filling out the required application. Application forms are available from all regional FWC offices and at MyFWC.com/hunting.

Fall turkey season mirrors the general gun season in the Northwest Hunting Zone but ends a month sooner (Nov. 24-27 and Dec. 10 Jan. 15). In the Central and South zones, fall turkey season runs Nov. 12 Jan. 8. Only bearded.. turkeys or gobblers may be taken, and only, one bird may be harvested per day. There is also a two-bird fall- season limit some folks aren't aware of. This means you may only harvest two turkeys during the archery, muzzleloading gun and fall turkey seasons combined. You are not permitted to hunt turkeys with dogs; use recorded turkey calls; shoot them while they are on the roost, over bait or from within 100 yards of a game- feeding station. It is also against the law to hunt turkeys in Holmes County during the/fall season. Quail and gray squirrel season runs statewide Nov. 12 Mar. 5. Of course, the use of dogs is allowed as pointing bird-dogs can really help locate a cqvey of quail, and small feist-dogs enjoy treeing squirrels and retrieving them once they are downed. There is a daily bag limit of 12 for each, and shooting fox squirrels is against the law. On private lands, shooting' hours for deer, turkeys, ,quail and gray squirrels is a half hour before sunrise to a half hour after sunset. All legal firearms, muzzleloaders, bows, crossbows and handguns may be used to take each of these resident game animals during the general gun, antlerless deer, fall turkey and quail and gray squirrel seasons. Illegal firearms and ammunition would be defined as semi- automatic rifles having magazine capacities of more than five rounds and fully automatic or silencer- equipped firearms. Other prohibited, methods for taking game include shooting from a moving vehicle or herding or driving game with a vehicle. SSnipe hunting in Florida ranks second in the nation in number of birds harvested each year, and the season runs Nov. 1 Feb. 15 statewide. The second phase of the mourning and white-winged dove, season also comes in this month and runs Nov. 12-27. On private lands, shooting hours for both migratory birds is one-half hour before sunrise to sunset. There is an eight-bird daily bag limit on snipe, and a 12-bird limit on dove, which includes no more than four white-winged doves. You must obtain a no-cost migratory bird permit if you plan to hunt snipe, dove or any other migratory game birds. In order to receive this permit, you will have to fill out a short questionnaire when you purchase your hunting license. The best choice and only firearm you are allowed to hunt snipe and doves with is a shotgun, although you are not permitted to use one larger than 10-gauge. Shotguns also must be plugged to a.three- shell capacity (magazine and chamber combined). You may hunt either of these birds over an agricultural field, as long as the crop has been planted by regular agricultural methods. However, you are not allowed to scatter agricultural products over, an area for the purpose of baiting. Retrievers or bird dogs can be Used, and if you're up for the challenge, you may even use a bow. Birds of prey also can be used to take snipe and doves by properly permitted individuals' practicing falconry. Some things you can't do while hunting snipe and doves include using rifles, pistols or crossbows; shooting from a moving vehicle; or herding or driving birds with a vehicle. The FWC even provides a "Dove Hunters' Hotline" which gives up-to-date information on SFlorida's public dove fields. The number to call is (850) 875-BIRD, arid it is updated every Thursday throughout the dove season. Information includes dove densities, previous week's harvests and field conditions. Whether it's small-game hunting with friends and family or hunting solo and going after that monster buck or wild hog during the general gun season, November brings loads of great hunting opportunities. Here's wishing you all a happy Thanksgiving and a successful hunting season. Remember, take a kid hunting or introduce' someone new to the sport we love. As always, have fun, hunt safely, and we'll see you in the woods!

Hunters, who were included in the random drawing last year and not issued a quota hunt permit, will be included in this year's first drawing, known as the preference drawing. "When you submit your application, there is no need to attach any rejection notice received last year to be included in this drawing. The TLS knows who was rejected last year and who is eligible this year." said Eddie White, FWC's quota hunt coordinator. "When you submit your application, you will receive a receipt showing the hunts you have applied for and your preference status. If you are eligible for the preference drawing, your receipt will indicate 'Preference: Yes.' Those not eligible for the preference drawing will be included in the second drawing." Applicants will receive, by mail, either a spring turkey quota hunt permit or a rejection notice prior to the beginning of Phase 2 of the selection process, on Dec. 14. Rejected applicants will be eligible for the preference drawing the following year and may re- apply in'Phase 2 for any hunts that were not filled during the random drawings. Hunters also may apply as a "group" during Phase 1. The group leader must apply first, and the group's number will be printed on their receipt. Each person wishing to join the group must also apply using this same group number, as provided by the group leader.
