Everglades Diamondbacks - SWFL's Armored Combat Team

https://preview.redd.it/qqtp2uzbbw4e1.jpg?width=1842&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=3e56266db3e30f73b24961dea6fe3f70d05e6629

Ever wanted to suit up in full plate armor and fight in full contact tournaments with real steel weapons?

Introducing the newest Buhurt team in Florida, we are interested in finding anyone willing to suite up and enter the list to test their skills and nerves!

We are looking for:

- Knights

Fighters, anyone willing to suite up in full plate armor and compete!

- Squires

Supporters, anyone interested in helping out and being around the fun, without all the scrapes and bruises!

- Sponsors

Anyone looking to help the team grow with supplies, this sport isn't cheap! There is a ton of traveling and our gear loves to break all the time!

What is Buhurt?

Buhurt is a historical practice originating in Europe where knights, warriors and mercenaries would fight with blunted weapons to show off their skills, in a relatively safe environment. Modern Buhurt has taken the premise and brought it back to life. We use real steel weapons and armor to fight and compete, with an emphasis on safety!

Who is this sport for?

Buhurt is for everyone! Doesn’t matter if you're big or small, tall or short, male or female. You can do this sport. Currently you must be 18 years or older! There are soft kit leagues for the younger crowd but our team does not currently host anything for children soft kit fighting.

What League do we participate in?

We practice under IMCF (International Medieval Combat Federation) and ACC (Armored Combat Sports) rules and regulations.

How do I get started?

This sport is expensive, no hiding that fact but if you are interested in trying it out all you need to do is show up to a practice with regular athletics clothes and water! Contact bellow for information on practice times and location!

Get in touch with myself here on reddit or visit us on our other social medias.

Lehigh acres vs. Golden gates (rural) estates

Long story short I work remotely and I’m looking to buy a house for my family in the sub 700k range. We have lived in downtown Estero for a while and we are looking for a change of pace and want a house with about 1-2 acres of land.

Assuming the homes are completely equal, which of these two neighborhoods would you prefer to live in and why?

Are Dollar and Thrifty rental cars on-airport at RSW, or do you need to take a shuttle?

Debating whether to use the mystery-agency booking through Priceline to save a few bucks, but it says "may require shuttle." Looks like the options for the agency are Alamo, Budget, Sixt, Dollar and Thrifty -- I can tell that the first three are on-airport but I'm not sure about the last two. Thanks for any insight!

Looking for friends

Hi! I’m Jay. I’m a teen living in collier county and I’m desperately looking for friends. I was born and raised in collier and I struggled making friends through high school, so now I have no one to hang out with. I work at a major shipping company in the early morning hours, but I’m other wise free! I’m currently single but not looking for a relationship. I’m queer (and over 18) and I’d like to find friends between 18-20 to hang out with or just chat online. Im into all sorts of shows and hobbies so please reach out! Thank you:)

December vacation

My family is planning a trip to Fort Myers and surrounding areas at the end of December this year. It’ll be me, my husband, our daughter (who will be almost 1), my parents, and my younger brother (13).

We’re looking for suggestions on things to do while we’re there. My dad and brother are really into fishing, and we’re also interested in history and, of course, spending time at the beach.

What’s the weather typically like that time of year, and what should we pack?

Any food places that are a must try?

Thanks in advance for any tips!

Where are all the Gen Xers?

I am 47F, single and new-ish to Ft Myers/SWFL and wondering where all the same generation of people are. I know my age demographic are mostly married w/families and such but there has to be some singles out there right? I work from home and don't get out too much so I am not sure where to go. Am I just in the wrong area?

Looking for a good realtor

Hello guys!

I am planning to buy a new house in SWFL (im looking for the area of Naples, but im also open to Nort Naples, Estero, Cape Coral and Ft Myers), and i thought that it would be a great idea to ask you guys. I conducted a little research by myself, but i thought that the right place to find real valuable information about the best agents its here, straight from the people. So i would very much appreciate any suggestions and after that i will try to choose the right agent and if everything goes right, i will share the result back to you! Thank you in advance!

Coffee and bakery Recommendations?

Hello all. Does anyone know of a bakery and coffee shop that sells great espresso drinks like cappuccinos, lattes, flat whites etc. and has really good pastries?

We tried to go to Mon Paris Cafe in Ft. Myers this morning. While their door said they open at 9:00 am Sundays, they were closed when we went there at 9:25. I'd happily go anywhere in Lee or Collins counties if they have really good espresso and baked goods.

Budget Rental Car Return at RSW?

We have a one-way return from Key West to RSW. Do your walk from the return lot to the terminal? Or is there a shuttle? We do have 2 under 2 in tow and thus need extra time to get them out of their car seats and a good amount of luggage. Is it possible to drop my wife and kids off at departures, then park myself and go over to the terminal? About how long does that take? We have a 5:30 am flight.
