I have a rough number but couldn't give an exact until I counted them all up.

I would have to think about it for a while and could probably get pretty close.Think I'd have to count them by state.

No. I used to keep a journal and attach photos to it at the end of each entry. I stored this at my dad's when I was in the Marines and during that time, his home caught on fire and it was lost. Since then, I have started a new journal but I can't honestly say how many were in the original.

I have no idea how many, but not enough!

Been at it since 1992, and have had some stellar years, guided many people to birds and even did a hunt of a lifetime trip for a kid with cancer, best experience turkey hunting by far!

Yep, I keep a detailed log and journal of my hunts in a spreadsheet. I even kept up with it when I was a kid but didnt start the spreadsheet until probably 10 years ago. I can look back at my log and remember every bird.

Most people keep the beards, all you would have to do is count them. I'll admit I have done so.

I stopped counting when I ran out of fingers and toes to keep track on...
Did I do that?

Fly fishermen are born honest, but they get over it.

No I don't keep up with it...
Be pretty tough for a felller like yourself to I'd imagine Greg.

To answer, I don't keep count. Save all my beards, but would have to count them to know exactly.

Yes.  I don't advertise but I can tell you how many deer, elk turkey, and any big game I've taken.  It's for my satisfaction.  I'm not all about the numbers but it's  my way of keeping a reference and remembering the hunt.

One of my personal current interests is nest predators and how a majority of hunters, where legal bait to the extent of chumming coons.  However once they get the predators concentrated they don't control them.

I lost count after about 120 bow kills. On the flip side,gun hunting is more enjoyable when I do it. I've got one with a .410 but numbers wise I'm < 40 with a gun.
