I never wrote any of it down and the numbers have since escaped me, because it just wasn't that important to me.

I've also measured the weight and inside spread of some of the nicer deer I've killed, but never wrote any of that down either.

Generally, the numbers and size of any of the animals are unimportant to me, and I could care less about seeing my name in a book.

The most important hunt is the next one...

This description from 99guy is exactly what I'd write. The experience is valuable to me. My only notes are related to load development. There are a couple notes about bullet performance in there possibly.
