If it is going to have ZERO impact on future hunting on the land you'rehunting on(which it appears it won't) and the meat is going to be put to good use then I'd say keep taking them.
In regards to the bucks, if it were me I wouldn't shoot anything under what you consider full potential for the area you're hunting. I'd let anything under that walk in hopes of seeing them the next few years. But, thats just my personal opinion.
Whatever you decide to do good luck, shoot straight, and happy hunting.

I didn't vote because I didn't see a choice that I was comfortable with. But I think.... Who cares how many deer you shoot, if its legal and you can use the meat and it isn't detrimental to the herd, nock your socks off and shoot a hundred more. Personally, I shoot only what I need to last me for a year (about 4) and I don't have anybody that asks me to get them a deer, so there is no need for me to really stack them up.

I would be more impressed if you shot that many deer and didn't make a dozen posts. I get the impression that you are doing it for attention here... otherwise I agree with NY Bowhunter

Congrats DD!! Since you can't pat your own back, I'll do it for ya.
I have no problem what you have done. But, do you know someone who does not hunt, or would like to hunt? Instead of killing them all yourself, which is fine, try to introduce someone to the sport and give them a chance. Then come and post, that's something I would like to hear about.

I vote for keeping the season alive. We guys in the north can only take 1 a year in most of the states with a gun. I get my multi deer fix by hunting 2 or 3 states. As long as the meat is being used then I say go for it. I like to transition to other things like ice fishing then turkey hunting and open water bass fishing etc. I change with the seasons or when my tags are filled. Because it would be difficult for Doc to get on some hard water then he needs to keep doing his thing and not worry about who doesn't like it. Just the fact that he is doing something in the outdoors is good enough for me.

I know exactly what DD needs to do. He obviously cannot kill enough deer with only one barrel. Therefore, he needs to invite me down there to lend a helping hand.
I bolded it so you could read it DD.
