This has probably been talked about on here before. What’s the average number of deer per hunter per season in Alabama? I got three this year. Could’ve shot a ton of does. Seems like 2 or 3 about average for me. I didn’t get a “nice one.” That’s once every 3 or 4 years for me. I know guys who killed 9 or 10 deer and that’s about average for them.

On the distance I like to walk to my stands: “The first 100 yards is also the last 100 yards.”

Usually 2-4. I kill more in Fl than Al though. I like to put up 4 to have meat enough to get me through the year though.

Typically <4 for me. Some years I take a few does and typically only shoot 1-2 bucks.

1 buck 1 doe. Not saying I wouldn’t shoot a second buck but it would have to be bigger than anything I have shot. I have sheep, chickens, and cows for meat also. Haven’t tried raising pigs yet.
FYI glad this question wasn’t asked in the mid to late nineties.

Life is a journey. Make sure and bring plenty of Beer.
My luck has been so bad lately, it could be raining pussies and I'd catch one with a dick broke off in it.

1-2 for me, depends on how I feel when I see them
Friend of mine puts up at least 12-15 every year. He raises chickens, rabbits and doesn't buy meat in a store.

Most years I’m 4-5. The last couple years I’ve only killed 2 each year.

2.65 buck average over the last 8 years ( Only reason I know is because that's when I started doing Skull mounts)

2-3 for the household. I rarely have to kill one if my boys do their part

^^ 2-4 avg My average is prob close to the 2.65 you say the last 6 years. Hunting so much bettr now that i got my own place. Killed 2 this year - a doe for a buddy and prob best buck i ever killed getting mounted! Since had my own place 6 years - last 4 years i killed 2 skull mounts and 2 shoulder mounts and the first year i clicked on a 10 i would hav mounted (muzzy just did not go off) & the second year i did not hav a mounter or skull worthy deer. Hunting over hunted clubs for 40 plus years - my average was never close to that good. Take many years to kill mounter!
I would hav liked 1 more doe but waited last sit for that - only saw small doe and let it go!
