RE: poll on your age and how long you been hunting
47 years old, been hunting 15 yrs, have killed 27 deer. loved it so much I bought my own land, built my own hunting cabin and spent approx. $50 thousand to hunt. When you get the fever, you get the fever! Wait a minute, if you start calculating this out, deer meat is the most expensive meat on earth.

Me?
I'm 43 and have only been hunting 3 years. See, I was the baby of my family and my dad and uncles used to hunt back in the late 50's, early 60's, etc... But then when I came of age, they had all given it up over the years. [&o]
With all the great people on this board, you all have helped me learn a heck of a lot, and I really appreciate it.
Scoreboard:
Deer: 0
Turkey: 0
Ducks: 2
Geese: 1

I'm 50, and have hunted off and one since I was about 10. Really more of a shooter than a hunter, but I've gotten a bit more serious about hunting in the last few years. Have no idea how many whitetails I've killed, many freezers full.

I am a little past 60 and have been hunting since age six. Never killed a elephant. Hunted about everything. Loved every minute of it.

Im 39, been hunting since I was 11, so 28 years. Damn, this post makes me feel old, who the heck asked this question LOL. Really though, I started going with my dad when I was about 7. lookin back, I sure screwed up his huntin with my loud mouth, and question after question. Ive already started taking my son and daughters with me, ages 7,5,16, not every trip, but some, so they learn.

I'm 67 and have been hunting since I was eight years old with a gun . Didn't kill my first deer until I was 12 ,which is the earliest the law allows here in Oregon .
