My first deer was a 4 point way back in '73.We were running dogs and I got 'em with a Rem 1100 w/#1 buck.I was in the 10th grade.I don't think anyone of the group I was hunting with even owned a camera,so no photo.

11/12/1987 yielded me my first deer which was a 114# doe. It took me 9 clean misses to close the deal. They have been falling at the rate of 1-4 year since then with only a few botched shots scattered over 2 decades.

First deer was a doe from about 75 yards. It was an easy broadside shot from a rest. She raised her tail and flinched a bit at the shot, then rather nonchalantly bounded into the brush. I waited for a half hour then went to the spot--no blood, no tuft of hair, or anything. I was seriously thinking I'd missed, the the tail and flinch seemed to be a reaction to a bullet. I decided to head in the direction she'd bounded and found her 25 yds away in a little ditch where she'd laid down.

My first deer was a nice 5-pt buck that I killed on a public wildlife management area.

The deer had been missed twice that morning before crossing over the ridge line I was watching from the next hollow. Half way down the hill side, the buck caught me shifting around and started trotting toward a thicket at the head of the hollow. I found the only opening in the thicket (about the size of a modest TV) and shot when the buck moved through the openning.

Remington 742 .30-06, 180 grain Core-lokt...buck took 5 steps and fell.

My wife was sitting next to me during that hunt. That buck (small compared to some I have killed) still has the center spot on my living room wall.

My first deer was a doe with an old Bear bow my brother-in-law gave me. It was set at 40 lbs. and by today's standards it seemed like it took the arrow forever to get to the target.

It will be 20 yrs. this rifle season when I shot my first deer. It was a big doe. I shot her with my dads old lever action 30-30. I can still remember that day like it was yesterday.

My first was 3 years ago, took a button at 100 yards (thought was a doe). Then later in the afternoon took a doe. So was lucky to get two in one day. But since then....skunked:(
