I have been bow hunting for 27 years and I have killed somewhere around 60 or 65 deer with archery tackle. For the past 10 years I have averaged 3 per year with a bow. I have absolutely no idea how many I have killed with a gun but I would think somewhere around 75 or so with a lot of them being killed in my earlier days as I now rarely pull the trigger on a gun unless its going on the wall. I have been doing this for about the last 8 years. I get plenty of meat with my bow and have no desire to shoot any doe's or small bucks with a gun anymore. With that said I would hope to end up killing 200 plus deer in my hunting lifetime. I know some states are 1 buck states so that would be a big factor in the equation.
