5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic book!, November 21, 2008

This review is from: 500 Deer Hunting Tips: Strategies, Techniques & Methods (The Complete Hunter) (Hardcover)

I recently purchased this book with the predictably lame excuse "Well, you can never learn enough about deer hunting!" but in all honesty it was because I think so well of the author's writing over the years. I have to say that the book exceeded even my unreasonably high standards!

There really are 500 deer hunting tips, collected by category (stand hunting, tracking, etc.), many of which I had not heard of before. I believe most every hunter will learn a thing or two from this book, and will give it a place of honour among their favourite hunting resource & reference books.

For those of us who like beautiful pictures in our hunting books (I like ambience too) you'll be pleased to hear that I found many pictures...all of them eye-catching and from different eras of deer hunting. Pictures are also strategically placed and captioned to illustrate a point or two made by the author on that particular page.

I read this book through over a weekend, and then read it through twice again in the following weeks. The enjoyment hasn't waned with exposure, so I think you'll find value in this book.

I cannot recommend this book enough!

Kurt.

Excellent recommendations for both bow and gun hunters. Much of the tips are review for me. However, some advice is new and practical to use in the field. Good book for both novice and expert! Also, nice hardback cover.
