I don't know the exact # but it's gotta be between 20 to 25. The last couple of years I have tried to go out late in the season and take at least one doe, but in years past I was content with taking one buck per season. Overall, the majority of my bow kills are bucks.

Been bowhunting since I was 14, so that makes 19 years. 16 bucks 5 doe. Alot of dinks. 1 135". Hoping Iowa treats me well this Oct/Nov. 2nd trip. Last year was Kansas, passed a 140, bigger behind it. Never presented a shot. Last bucks I saw that whole week.

I have never gun hunted. I have been bowhunting for 5 years, and took 5 deer in the last 3 years. I passed up some shots, waiting for that big buck.

Took a nice 4pt. muley this year with my bow, first buck with bow, and 2 does several years ago. As I usually rifle hunt for deer and always archery hunt for elk, but I think I will try hunting the ole wily muley more often!!

174 deer combined. probably around 30 w/ a bow. when virginia opened up a 1 week and then a 2 week muzzleloader in 1990, my bow hunting dropped. i now dont even bow hunt in november. when i was younger, i shot everyhting that was legal. in virginia, you can take 2 deer per day.
im self employed and can hunt 50-60 days a year, so 174 does not sound all that much.
