I would guess the 06 has killed more bulls then any other, more then all combined perhaps. 270 has killed a lot of bulls. 300 win mag and 7mm mag have killed lots....if stats matter, you have your answer,

I carried a crossbow, two muzzleloaders, a .45-70, .30-06 and .300 savage after deer this year... and my tribe would have went extinct!
Sometimes it goes that way

To be fair dad got two bucks and Jayden (wife's cousin that we have custody of) got two bucks. I was with him for both those.
So I would have taken a nice one if I'd been the one pulling the trigger.
So it was a good season. Might still take one in Ohio's late archery season here if I get motivated to go out in the cold.
