When I see the lizards on my oak trees doing push ups, do the iguanas do the same? Is that the reason for their big guns?

Big Iguanas

Lol. Mostly I see the iguanas near my area doing head bobs. They are faking their push ups, but boy are they jacked. Must be using winstrol.

Fast head bobs mean aggression. Then I show them I'm more aggressive with a 50 grain pellet through their head

I’ve zapped 3 about 85% of the size of the one Orion posted. All DRT @ 15 yards with a Daystate Huntsman in .20 cal (yes .20 cal) pushing 15.89 grain JSBs at 850 fps ish from the muzzle. You can get pretty close to them before they dart off. They have been deemed invasive down in here south Florida, I put them in a cooler for my neighbor who’s from PR and he eats them. I’ve zapped plenty of 2 foot ones with a BSA Ultra SE in .25 pushing 25 grain JSBs about 460 fps ish at 5 yards. I always aim for the head and they go down with no problem.

I want to go hunt these even more after reading this thread.
Does anybody offer guided hunts in Florida for iguanas? I wouldn’t mind going to PR but really hate flying. Want big iguanas.

I know FL has pretty much said to do whatever you can to get rid of them as long as it’s humane. I don’t know about guided tours and I’ve heard conflicting reports that you can only take them if they are on your property. I’ve probably zapped 10 total I’m sure someone else down here will chime in. I’m very, very close to the Everglades and have a lake behind my place so they are always around. My neighbor a few houses down put a wood plank down on the edge of the water and his yard. The plank heats up nicely with the sunlight and the iguanas hang out on it to heat their bodies more and baits them with mangos. He uses a Hatsan gas ram in .25 at about 15 yards that does them in.

I want to go iguana hunting soooooo bad! Can’t wait for the Covid thing to end! I can go to Florida or PR! To me it doesn’t matter, I would love to smoke a huge one! Great pics gents! I shoot only .22 placement is key! My FX Impact MKII for long distance And my Lelya for 75 yards and less.

Now that is a trick that sounds great. A waterway without logs, that trick should always get you one. A great time I have removed hundreds now.
