When I'm not scouting or hunting, I spend a lot of time reading about bowhunting and trying to pick up tips and pointers to make me better come the next season. With spring greenup starting to occur, now is when I spend the majority of my time catching up on my whitetail books. Below, I've listed all the archery related books that I have read. If you have read a book that isn't on the list that you feel made you a better bowhunter, I would appreciate if you reply with title and author. This first group of books I have gained at least some new knowledge, and as everyone knows, success in archery adds up to doing alot of little things well. I would recommend the following books to anyone wanting to increase their knowledge of whitetail bowhunting: - "Mapping Trophy Bucks" by Brad Herndon - "Advanced Stand-Hunting Strategies" by Steve Bartylla - "Bowhunting Tactics That Deliver Trophies" by Steve Bartylla - "Hunting Trophy Whitetails in the Real World" by Don Higgins - "Bowhunting Pressured Whitetails" by John & Chris Eberhart - "Precision Bowhunting" by John & Chris Eberhart - "Bowhunting Forests & Deep Woods" by Greg Miller These next 2 books are more general deer hunting and I found them to be more for beginning hunters in my opinion: - "Sure-fire Whitetail Tactics" by John Weiss - "Whitetail Strategies" by Peter Fiduccia So that is the extent of my whitetail archery library. If you have read any books that aren't on this list and feel they made you a better whitetail archer, please add them to this thread. Thanks!
I love reading as much as anyone and collecting books... but if you really want to expand the envelope and push your boundaries of knowledge even further, I'd highly suggest picking up a couple DVDs from Dan Infalt and a couple friends: "Hunting Marsh Bucks" and "Hill Country Bucks". http://www.thehuntingbeast.com/Store/index.php?productID=117 http://www.bloodbro.com/store/details.php?prodId=44
