Deer do you harvest each year? I put at least one in the freezer but donate a few to family/friends. Last year four this year three so far. Highest number ten. Also have claimed a few road kill over the years.

I've got two so far, and I want to get one more for us. Then, if I'm lucky, perhaps one or two for some folks nearby.

There are six of us who hunt my land. Bag limit is four apiece. We usually kill three or four.

Hope the fish cooperate this winter.

As many tags that are available (yearly varies)
I'm a meat eating sunsbeech. I can easily eat 5 a year.


swampgas chili and schmidt beer makes for a deadly combo

You have to remember that 1 out of 3 Democratic Voters is just as dumb as the other two.

We usually eat 4 each year. We keep the back straps to grill. Can one maybe two. The rest gets made in jerky or sausage.!

3 or 4 plus a few road kills for tenderloins and rear quarters. Two in freezer so far, still passing does waiting for a good buck with the muzzleloader.

As a family usually try to get 5, this year so far only 2, but a couple more doe hunts coming before the year ends so might get there.


Life sure is tough when you don't learn from the mistakes of others.

I have not shot one in at least 3 years. But I take my boys and they have shot 5 each this year. They pass so many it's unreal.

I actually packed a x bow and gun a few times this year but let the best buck I have had a chance at walk along with smaller ones and several doe. I'm out of freeze space and we have been making jerkey and caning it.

6 to 12 a year is the goal.

I may actually shoot one in late bow or muzzleloader. But probably not.
