I was just listening to Kip Adams on a podcast and heard him mention that only 15% of all hunters in America killed 2 or more deer last year. I'm aware that everyone's situations, time, states, deer population, laws, habitat, etc. vary but that still seemed shocking. Things have really clicked for me starting 4 years ago. In those years, I've killed 5, 2, 3, and 4 deer per season. Last year I only hunted 12 days in the season. I guess I always figured I was on the lower end of the spectrum for days hunted and just figured that correlated to less deer compared to others. In full disclosure, before the last 5 years, I was VERY unsuccessful. I'm talking about only killing like 2 deer in 12-14 years. I'm fully aware of the struggles lol. But I was young and dumb and barely knew what I was doing then. Sites like this have massively contributed to my recent success. I'm curious what others on this site have experienced? I'd wager the users on here blow out the 15% mentioned above so lets hear it.
