Bowhunting Pressured Whitetails
Precision Bowhunting
both by John Eberhart

I have read them again and again. They're great.

This will be my 2nd FULL season deer hunting (coming up). Read EVERYTHING you can. Watch EVERY show you can.

But more importantly......DON'T be afraid to ask questions in this forum. There are more experienced whitetail hunters (and other species) that are MORE THAN HAPPY to share with you.....than you'd ever guess.

WONDERFUL people, here.....and I utilize their expertise almost daily.

These are excellent books and I re-read them also. I would suggest another book that is extremely informative and that is:

American Whitetail - Deer Hunting Tips & Resources

Funny thing is when Joe and I first met we did not get along, and now weare good friends. Joe really help me understand mature whitetails. I still have a pile to learn!!!
