Did some more digging...
and based on comments from SL Brown here and it looks like these might be Hogna georgicola.

Comparison shots found here...Florida Nature.

Hogna
If it is a carolinensis then so is and . Based on those other two images, I think it'll be placed in Hogna until we can verify our suspicions that they are indeed carolinensis.
