2007 was a good year...

Congrats to all on very nice kills, I have only managed two does so far this season here in Maryland, season doesn;t end till the end of Jan so I have my fingers crossed I can fill the freezer even more, last year I took 10 does and 1 three point.

We dont like hearing that kind of stuff out here since we have to draw for a doe tag, you may get the tag in two to ten years, and you can only shoot one deer a year.

Anyway, congrats on your hunt!

Hey, how many pounds of meat are you getting off the average doe back there?

[robb92]

Most does are around 100 pounds live weight, after you bone them out you'll get maybe 30 to 40 pounds of meat. i know all about the doe tags, my first year hunting in WA we drew doe tags up around Colville. We hunted near Peterson swamp. The reason for the high bag limits in Maryland is they did a deer study here this year and a healthy deer herd is 20 deer per square mile, where I hunt and the surrounding counties it is over 170 deer per square mile.

Holy smoles, that a lot of deer. Yep, I am jealous. I would love to be able to hunt a bit longer, and score a few more deer. But, I should not complain, my freezer is packed solid with wild game. Thanks for sharing.
