I have learned that you can go for 2 weeks on 3-6 hours of sleep a night and still be fine. Anything more then that you brain stops functioning properly and i wouldnt want to be around anyone or have a gun myself being like that.

7 years. 4 bucks. 6 does. 1 buck and 1 doe with a bow, the rest with my rem. 700. These last two years I have had my little cousin with me and have been trying to get her a shot. I've passed up a lot of deer 
...But she got her first one this past year so it was well worth it.

8 years, i would have to guess about 30. About 4-5 a year for the last 5 years. My journal only goes back 3 years.mostly does. Nusiance permits at 2 a year make some great jerky. 95% 12 gauge shotgun,several were taken on the run. just started getting into bow and muzzleloader. would love the rest of the state to open up with rifle, do some long range shooting (NY)

RE: how many deer have you killed and how long have you been hunting
I've been hunting since the Fall of 2006. I got one deer, a doe, in late archery season. Couldn't get out earlier becuase my husband was too busy. I've also gotten a number of squirrels and rabbits.
Missed this last season because of the baby. (She's worth it though.)
