I'm too tired from driving but since the rifle season is over and the final tally is in....

Someone figure out how many deer per/hour that comes out to be.

Figuring 193,155 deer taken during firearms season...and assuming shooting hours from 6:30am to 5:30pm (a little long, but easier figurin') each day for a total of 121 shooting hours during the 11 day season...

1596 deer were taken each and every hour of shooting light during rifle season...

:D Speaking of stats, does anyone else find it funny that NO NONE NADA 2009 fall turkey hunter in Missouri checked in a bearded hen?! :thinking:

Sounds to me like some folks mis-IDed some bearded hens as juvenile gobblers. :D

[rquote=1487500&tid=103921&author=Parker]:rof2: TOMORROW IS TURKEY DAY DUDE! TURKEY INTERRUPTIONS IN THREADS SHOULD BE ALLOWED at least through the close of the week! :rof2:

Parker[/rquote]

My buddy shot his first yesterday... was sighting in his muzzleloader when they came out of the woods. Grabbed his bow and snuck behind them and got a hen.. he says "I thought these things were hard to kill" :hysterical:

:thinking: So.....here's where my thought process goes with this then..... Do you suppose....there was a minute, or maybe even a 5 minute time period during the season where there was a deer not being killed? Bet there was! :D :stirpot:

On opening morning every year I like to count seconds in my head and see how far I get between gun shots....usually it's fairly late in the morning before I get to a full minute very many times.
