First deer, out of season , lad of 12 or 13, shot him between the eyes at about 15 or 20 yards, little 6 point. Didn’t endear myself with all the family at thanksgiving dinner when I came home and told them what I had done. Lost the use of grandpa’s 22 for awhile after that. First legal deer, nice 8 point with a borrowed 1951 marlin model 336 in 35 Remington. I was 14. Did not get in trouble over that, only deer the family got that year.

November 1977. Borrowed a friends Ruger Number One in 243. Being a poor college student I had a local bait shop which sold ammo by the round. Don't remember how many I bought but probably 8 or so. Killed bunches after that. I hunted for about 5 years before killing my first. We didn't have many deer back then, especially bucks.
Take care,
Rick

A Jennings Model T Compound, before many here were even born :-) Killed my first bow kill with a Jennings back then... First rifle kill was a 788 in 308 in the late 70's.

16ga Mod 37 featherweight made in 1953.. I got a doe in 1977.. I still have it… Matter of fact, I bought a case of duck loads from Boss.. It was sending a shell into the magazine upon recoil.. Took it to a friend that retired from gun smithing a few years ago.. All I have to do is test fire… Glad I dusted this bad boy off…..

Killed the first one (PA Whitetail) at age 16 with my Nana's 1950 Buick. Killed the 2nd one (AZ Mule Deer) with an 1895 Chilean Mauser in 7x57. Had bought it from Sears through the mail for $13 and change, and finished "sporterizing" it just before hunting season.

Like CCCC above killed my first deer with a 91 toyota truck. After that I decided I wanted to start hunting them since my dad never hunted. Killed probably my first 10 deer with his winchester 94 30/30
