Makes the complex quite simple,

This review is from: Bowhunting Trophy Whitetails: An Advanced Approach to Taking Mature Bucks (Hardcover)
I get so tired of reading deer hunting books that simply repeat the same old deer hunting advice: "set up between bedding areas and feeding areas," for instance. In the places where I've lived, it's often hard to tell feeding areas - food is everwhere, and deer can bed anywhere. So needless to say, much of what passes for deer hunting advice - even from so-called experts - is confusing and doesn't really end up working where most of us hunt. Against this backdrop, Bobby Worthington is a breath of spring. The stuff he suggests is stuff you won't read much of other places, but will actually work where you live. Bobby's a country boy who grew up studying deer (not deer hunting books), and rather than pay a guide to hunt his deer for him so he can shoot it (what many other writers do), he hunts them himself. His advice is common sense, practical, and easy to understand. If you read this book and do what he says, you WILL become a better deer hunter.

This review is from: Bowhunting Trophy Whitetails: An Advanced Approach to Taking Mature Bucks (Hardcover)
This book was a very good one. Written by a man who has done his own homework, instead of someone else doing it for him.( LIKE OUTFITTERS AND GUIDES) It's good to see men who are real deerhunters doing it the old fashioned way. Scouting area's themselves, making their own strategies in getting trophy deer. You can tell he knows what he is talking about from experience. Many of the books say the same thing over and over again. When this man comes highly regarded by Gene Wenzel,that is saying something to me! If you want to go to the next level in deerhunting, This book is for you. I would give it six stars if I could. Get It!

A good approach,

This review is from: Bowhunting Trophy Whitetails: An Advanced Approach to Taking Mature Bucks (Hardcover)
I don't bow hunt but I found this book as applicable to rifle hunting as it may be to bow hunters. It is mostly reprinted articles from a series that ran in North American Whitetail magazine. It is handy to have them collected in one volume. The first part involves details on setting up a bow for hunting and the second part is about the author's strategy. He simplifies his approach to hunting funnels in the rut. While this is not new, he makes a strong case that it is the best use of the limited time available to hunt mature bucks while they are are vulnerable. His claims on scent control I find less practical. It looks so time consuming that, even if it works, it still would not be worthwhile. I tried to follow his advice and did have some luck in funnels but it is a hard hunt mentally, especially here, with 5-7 deer sq mile. As he says, it may be days before you see a deer. I had one funnel I saw a great buck in, the first time there, and when I checked it after a week's worth of tracks in the snow there was just 5 sets. Ouch!
The author claims on his site that he is updating the book to three times the length. It will be interesting to see if he can add more insight.
