I agree with Recurve 67. All the authors he has mentioned are excellant.I enjoy reading books on whitetail hunting and have a significant collection of whitetail hunting books.The authors mentioned by recurve67 are certainly some of the best! There is another author named Buck Nelson who wrote an outstanding book on whitetail hunting.(If you were to do an internet search,I know he has a website)Also right now I am reading a book By Dr. Ken Nordberg,The Whitetail Hunters Almanac 3rd Edition.I have never read a whitetail hunting book that goes in to the scouting detail that this book goes in to. I am no new comer to successful whitetail hunting and I can't wait to get in the woods to observe the things discussed in this book!(Please don't interpret that last sentence as boastful that is not my intention)I am trying to convey how good I think this book is.
