In all your years of hunting? What caliber took most of them?

Me, in 20 years probably a dozen.

30-06 was the most common caliber.

I will refrain from posting a number but the majority were taken with a .270 (I will say it is a lot). It has been over a 40 yr period.

I will probably kill a dozen this year alone in Kansas, Oklahoma and Texas

I use .243 for rifle season (if I even use it) and a bow or crossbow for the archery season.

I shot 1 doe with .308 when I was 15(25 years ago)

In the past 10 years I've killed 6 bucks with a bow and lost 1 and I still haven't gotten over that 1

Same here although no where near as many as STX

28 years hunting deer............a lot. first year on a poorly managed ranch that went MLD really kicked the number through the roof
.308 on the majority, with a 7mag, -06, and 22-250 sprinkled in for variety

my first at age 9... .22 hornet, whopping 1pt'r at 15yrds

I began hunting with my dad about 98 when I was 13. I have killed 4 deer, all bucks, in my hunting career. All have been shot with. 270. Two with a win mod 70 using remington 100 grain corlokts. 2 with my current rem 700 using 130 grain winchester powermax bonded. Sighted with 130gr corlokts now but just ordered 2 boxes of federal 140 grain accubond ammo for this year.

Since we're talking numbers, does anyone keep count of misses? My number is 2, both time I got ate up by nerves.

I will refrain from posting a number because after 55 years I honestly don't know. It's a fair amount. Most were taken in my younger years with my first deer rifle a .303 British Infield, then later years I hunted strickly bow for 16 seasons, then muzzleloader, then back to bow, and now with my eyesight not what it used to be I'm into using a single shot scoped rifle. Might be a .243, 454 Casull, 45-70 Govt. just depends on what I feel like shooting with my handloads.

Quite a few. Most of them have been shot with a 300wm

Too many to know exactly how many but most taken with a Winchester, Model 70, .30-.06.

Alot through the years. Ive never kept count. Mine are probably pretty evenly split between a 25-06 a 7 mag and a bow.

Have taken a few in 40 years of hunting, most with 7mm-08 and 22-250. Not sure of how many, never really kept up with it.

In the last 4 years I killed about 50 or so deer. All with a .270 Win. Prior to that, lifetime kills would be around about the same, maybe more.

If you count deer that I put down while on duty after they were struck by cars, the number will be in the hundreds.

Weapons used include .357 Mag, .45 ACP, .22LR, .223 (AR15), .243 Win, .264 Win Mag, 7mm Rem Mag, .308 Win, .308 Norma Mag, 30-30, .30-06, 25-06, .222 Rem, and probably a few others. Never lost a deer (knock on wood).

X2 but mine are combo of 22-250,243, 25-06, 257wby.... 22-250 probably holds the most

I honestly don't know either. Not as many as some but quite a few over 40 years of hunting.

The vast majority of those with the same Sako .270 I've had since I was 15. The ones with a bow are catching up though..

90% with a 100gr broadhead. Not sure on number. Somewhere around 50. Early years I struggled with a bow. Then my son started and I spent time making sure he was successful. Then I got into trophy only mode. Now I'm looking for multiple targets. Got one tag in my pocket from KS, six from AR, five from TX. Gonna need more arrows. lol.

i have taken them numerous ways in 40 years .....
a few with the truck....LOL
a few with a shotgun ....and
a number i wont post with rifles in numerous calibers .....
these days i take very few .....i just watch em , count em....
take photos and wait for the .....ONE....

tried to scratch it out,
4 mulie bucks all with same 1961 Rem Model 721 3006 180 Grain
I came up with 17 Whitetail bucks, might be short a few, 90% with same Remington model 721 3006 same 180 grainers
approx 10-12 WT doe, 90 % of them also with same ol' 721

so id say around 35 mostly with same ol trusty rusty my friends call it, its not rusty haha, gonna retire him this year, got me a new 300 win 700LSS this year, gonna be hard to retire the 06

Shot my first deer in 1999

During the day or night?

Hunting MLD and high fence ranches down south has given me the opportunity to take many deer.. Don't even want to guess at this point.. but every year, i try to rotate thru my collection but also the area im hunting will play a big role.. I would say most common is the .270.

Between 50 and 60, most of them were does. I filled my tags in a 5 deer county every year for about 7-8 year with all does, wish we had mld!

Wow. Over the last 29 years maybe 35 hard to remember. Some years I took 3 others I took none. One year I filled all 5 but that was a long time ago when we were invited to thin a hill country herd. Mostly with 30-06, 30/30, 243, and a few other calibers and an old PSE Vulcan II bow. Indiana, Wisconsin, Illinoise, Texas and soon in Kentucky or Nebraska (I hope).
