Killed my first in 1995, a spike that weighed 57lbs (please no bashing it was my 1st and I was 10) I have killed roughly 40 deer since then, my biggest a 162 10pt from the Fort.
Don't think anyone has room to bash you with a 160 under your belt, Congrats Friend!

Started hunting in 1974 at age 7. Killed my first one in 1979. I'd say I've killed between 75 and 100. I wish there was a way to find out how many I have killed.

Did just that a few weeks ago. I came up with about 400. But that is just an estimate. I think it is pretty close. what about time say 50 years ?
You do the math. I started in 54, killed my first two in 55. I been at for a while and did it for a living for several years. I'd estimate 70% were does.

First deer hunt was '75 . Never had anyone to teach me or take me hunting, just went and sat mostly seeing nothing.
Missed a lot of years and several years only went once or twice.
Total is not important, just say not nearly as many as I would like.
Biggest was in 2007, a 7 point .
Have killed deer with rifle and mz in 3 States.
Have not killed any since 2007, only been twice during that time.

Started in 1987 and killed my 1st buck (6 pt) the first day I hunted. I have killed 116 total ( 69 bucks & 47 does ). I have taken a picture of every deer I have ever killed and written everyone down in a journal and photo album.I killed everyone I could when I was younger, now I usually kill 1 or 2 a year. I have hunted deer in 8 different states over the years and have killed 5 bucks that gross over 140 inches and a couple others that were around 120.
I killed 42 of the 116 with a bow
