Editorial Reviews

From Library Journal

Though we're now in the hot grip of August, it'll soon be deer season, and many hunters are already oiling their rifles and dreaming of Bambi burgers. Etling's 1989 volume provides a soup-to-nuts guide to tracking and bagging six-, eight-, ten-, and even 12-point and larger trophy bucks. If you can score one of these bruisers, you get a winter's worth of fine meat and a hat rack at the same time.

Product Description

Have you always dreamed of taking a monster buck? Well, before you pull the trigger on that eight-pointer, here's a chance to get some really big antlers. In Hunting Superbucks, Kathy Etling - with help from dozens of Boone & Crockett and Pope & Young club record holders - provides advice that is better than you'll get anywhere else.

Yet Hunting Superbucks is not just about hunting advice. It also includes observations from many of the most respected authorities working in deer research today. Listen as wildlife biologists discuss how dominant bucks learn to survive, and how superbuck hunters can use this knowledge in the field. Lifestyles, habits, foods, genetics, and other secrets of the big bucks are here, as well as practical field information. Learn how to read superbuck signs such as rubs and scrapes; where and when to hunt for the bucks that made them; and how to rattle and call effectively. Etling also shows why a superbuck behaves differently from a six-pointer, and includes the special techniques that today's hunter needs to know in order to pursue such a deer.

So follow the best trophy hunters in the United States and Canada as they outwit the smarter, older, harder-hunted, and - above all - bigger trophy deer.

5.0 out of 5 stars Do it yourself for big bucks!, May 7, 2001
By Thom Hart (Ames, Iowa) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Hunting Superbucks: How to Find and Hunt Today's Trophy Mule and Whitetail Deer (Paperback)
The author wisely plays down her own experiences in favor of those from well-known hunters of both whitetail and mule deer trophy bucks. Although Kathy Etling has written for most of the major outdoor magazines in the U.S. and is a staff writer for several of them, her real strength lies in the way she is able to get straight to the point in an interview. She cuts to the chase and reveals what any hunter needs to know in order to take trophy-class deer. Whether you're planning on going with an outfitter or going on your own, Etling gives you information enough to succeed. Yet she never loses sight of hunting's essence: that a trophy lies in the eyes of the beholder. So, while a 130 point Boone and Crockett whitetail is a fine animal indeed, it may not be what the long-time whitetail fanatic is looking for. Etling manages to provide information to satisfy every hunter who longs to put a nice -- or record book -- trophy on his or her wall.
