8 mulie bucks.  Started hunting deer in 04

Oh yeah, 2 blackies,4 mulie, and  5 white tail crossed the road at the wrong time :chuckle: :chuckle:

I guess I was asking for legally hunted deer, so dont count roadkil, But dang Naches Sportsman are you saying you hit 11 deer with your truck?

I can't keep track and must not have a memory to recall like many on here. 

Unless you guys are keeping a tally written down or notched on your bed frame not sure how once you get past 10 or so you can remember all of them.  Especially with the doe seasons that once were so liberal.

I estimate 16, I am 40 yrs old.  Have not bought a deer tag for 5 years until this year so I could take my daughter out.  Never miss a elk season however.

"Killed" is a harsh way of putting it.

I prefer "relieving them of the burdens and stress of worrying if they are fit to fill my freezer".

How many?  Same answer as every other year; 1 less than I want to!
“If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen.”

I've killed a blacktail every year since I started hunting them. Killed my tenth one this year, all bucks. My dad can't stand hunting around here so I didn't start until I was 16. Killed my first buck at 9 years old, a muley in Montana. I think I'm at 7 mule deer now so that makes it 17 bucks total. Still trying to get my first whitetail buck.

sirmissalot,  One of these years how about I get you on good whitetail ground (in 121) in trade you get me on good blacktail ground?  Something to think about anyway.  I have been thinking about blacktail for awhile now and spend a few weeks in Aberdeen every year.  May have to make some aberdeen trips during the 4 day late season in future years.

This is one area I really wish I would have kept track over my life (49 years old).  But as far as I can remember about 75-80 approximately.  That covers 4 species in 4 different states, male and female.
Look man, some times you just gotta roll the dice

not sure exactly, but I had four or five years where I killed 10-15 deer...that added up pretty quick!  (hunting in Iowa) 

I have a hard time getting excited about deer hunting in WA- I guess I've killed 5 in the last 7 years.  I don't know if I'll get the MZ out next week or not...  :dunno:

I think the better question would be how many blacktail over 120, whitetail over 140, and mule deer over 160 is a better question.

Anyone can go out and kill a doe, spike, or even a forky. I don't remember the last time I took a deer under 3 1/2 years old. I think it's more ethical to let them grow up.
