I'm 30, and have killed 21 deer. I had a run of bad luck from 89-92 when i didn't even get a shot.
Killed 11 with my bow and 10 with my shotgun...and hence the name.........no wall hangers.

Four...1 doe and 3 bucks. Between the military , college , and being too poor to buy a license I have only hunted heavily the last 4 years. I thank God for those 4 deer and the many hours of quiet time with Him.

I've been hunting since I was 12 started bowhunting when I was 16. I'm 36 now and have shot around 30 all in Minnesota and most all with a bow. Have 4 heads on the wall with a 5th one at the taxidermist. Up until about 4 or 5 yrs ago we were only allowed one deer so probably about half the deer I have shot have been in the last 4 or so years.

I've been hunting since I was 12. From 12-20 yrs old I prolly averaged 1-2 deer a yr. From 20-55 yrs old I've averaged 3-5, sometimes more deer a yr. I've eaten everything I've killed except for what I have given folk in need. I havn't kept count. I basically hunt for meat but with hopes of a good rack. So far this yr I've put a couple of does in the freezer and have let a few small bucks walk. Our ruts just starting to kick in so I'll prolly nail another doe and then hold out for a rack.
