I used to keep a record but I have forgotten to add to it in the past few years.


I remember at one time I killed two in one day, that made me #35 and #36 with my bow. I have probably killed 5 or 6 more since then so I would say around 40 deer, probably a little over half of them bucks.

I have been bowhunting for 23 years. It took me two years to kill my first one but after that I have been pretty hard on em.

I've been bowhunting for about 11 years now and I would have to say that I've taken 16 bucks and probably 20 or more does. These days I have gotten more picky about which bucks I shoot. My biggest was an 8 pt. that scored 140 6/8. Although the last 2 years I haven't taken a buck.

62 with gun and bow. 37 bucks, 25 does in 38 years. 20 bucks with bow. I skipped a few archery seasons when I was younger, so I could foolishly chase my own does! I'm sure glad I got over that!

I have to seriously sit down and think back to count them all....I'm 39 and started bowhunting on my own at age 16......that's 23 years of bowhunting...some years it was one deer, some years two, a couple years 3 and some years none.....really can't imagine.....
