INTRODUCTION

If you have the desire to bow hunt, commit yourself to be the best bow hunter you can be. You owe it to yourself and to the game you hunt.

Some 25 years ago I decided to try my hand at bow hunting. The moment I drew my first arrow back, I was bow struck! Over the next several years, I learned by trial and error what worked and what did not. I turned some hard learned lessons into some well deserved success stories.

The intention of this book is to help you get started in bow hunting. IÕve tried to occupy the pages of this book with basics to get you pointed in the right direction. Fancy words and high tech terms have been left out. In their place, just plain and simple information designed to help you become a successful bow hunter. Subjects like how to select the right bow, arrows, accessories, hunting from a tree versus staying on the ground, advice on the proper hunting clothes and staying scent free. This and much more to prepare you for that moment when you must make the first shot and harvest your first deer. Good Hunting!

This review is from: Bow Hunting Basics for Beginners (Paperback)

I decided to bow hunt for the first time this year. Before I purchased my bow, I read this book. It is well written in plain English. The author keeps it simple, but it's got great information. A lot of helpful tips that the novice wouldn't necessarily know. I like how it spelled out the name of each piece of equipment and what it's used for. I didn't feel like a complete beginner when I went to purchase my bow. It was definately worth the money, and I can pass it on to my son when he's getting ready to go out with me.
