Default What's your deer body count?

I've killed 3 deer in 3 years of hunting hard for em. I still haven't taken one with my bow and this year I could've killed more, but I just let em walk cause they were does. I still got until Feb 28th to take one with my bow though.

Between thirty and forty in about 25 years of hunting.I have hunted deer almost entirely in saskatchewan and alberta where we are only allowed one buck per year and have ended up with a few unfilled tags by being very selective about the deer I will harvest.

3 with a bow 8 with a gun. 6 bucks, 5 does and that is in six years of hunting.

P.S. Only Chuck Adams can sit at home and see deer so get into the woods. =;^)

I don't know my deer count, but took more bucks than does in my life. Usually around 3 deer a year or so. Took 3 deer in two hunts this year with the bow.

I'd have to sit down and do some thinking about that one. There have been years I've passed up as many as 12 diffrent bucks I could have shot but ended up putting my tag on the Christmas tree. Then there have been years I got drawn for some special licenses and bought some additional deer tags and shot as many as 4 deer in one season.

I like deer meat so I like to shoot a doe on a special permit early. I like hunting for a trophy buck so I sure don't want to shoot any legal buck I see.

I got 4 this year. That's about typical.
I have a life license, so I don't have to buy separate tags (Indiana). I don't know how many total I've taken. I usually give a few to some cousins of mine that like deer meat, but don't have a good place to hunt.
