Greetings, friends.
I found this little beauty on my front porch, in Tulsa, Oklahoma.
I believe he is a Carolina Wolf Spider, but I'm not sure. Guessing he is male, because he has some pretty impressive little boxing gloves on, but again, not sure.
Need some help IDing him.
Thanks guys. I've housed him comfortably to study him and let my little one get to know the species around our home, but will be releasing him very soon.
Any help is very appreciated, thanks!

definitely a Hogna, hard to say which species.

does he ever climb up the side and let you see below? some species of Hogna can be separated by the amount/pattern of black markings on the underside

Be they 8 or 4 legged.
Swift of foot, Keen eyesight, able to run down their Prey.
