Started hunting in about '78, first kill in '80, and killed a total of 54. Killed my first one in Washington County. It's interesing to look back at the TWRA records to see how few deer were killed back when I got started. Don't remember for sure, but it was a really low number in 1980.
Anybody else save all their kill tags? I've got every one of mine with additional information written on them to document the occasion, ie, weight, location of hunt, etc, etc,

EVERY SINGLE KILL TAG of EVERY SINGLE DEER I ever killed except the first one at AEDC in 1981, and maybe one or two others. ALso, Alabama did not issue kill tags so there are a few of those missing. But pics of ALL my kills.
I also have pictures of every one and video of MANY, MANY of the deer. Some video of the actual kill
Also...where, time of day, weather cond., temps., etc...
I looked up the moon phase on a buch of them. I used to know how to go back and look that up but I have found it really makes little difference in MOST cases.

To answer the question: I couldn't tell you, alot I guess. Started in 1965, and living with my Grandparents with very little money, deer was a good source of food. Every time this question comes up it just makes me thankful I get to see and hunt another season. Now days it's not the number of kills its the enjoyment of the hunt.
