I think it’s a huntsman spider.

It’s the same kind as the one I found! It’s similar to a wolf spider with different patterns. Let me know when you know please!

Hi,this is not a huntsman,this is a wolf spider in the Lycosidae family,likely Hogna genus.
Look at the body segment,you see it is a long pear shape,huntsman have more a flattened face and wide.
A male Hogna lenta would be my guess.

Hi, welcome to Spider ID. 🙂 This is a male Wolf Spider (Lycosidae), looks a bit like Tigrosa georgicola, Florida has some unique species I’m not familiar with though. Filing to family.
