Favorite Deer Hunting Books?

[BCD]

Please share your favorite hunting books. I'm really looking for something based more on learning tactics, locating funnels, map-reading, etc. than focused on stories.

Thank you

Agreed. You have watched both of Dans DVDs right? "Marsh Bucks" and "Hill Country Bucks"

Thats one of the better deer hunting books I have read. Its seems a lot of books from the "experts" are vague and very basic strategies used in the rut mostly.

I would reccomend Greg Miller. His Tv show is good for being a celebrity and his book was good as well.

in addition to the Herndon book and BBO DVDs

Bill Vale, Eberharts, Don Higgins, Bobby Worthington, Roger Rothhaar, John Trouts, David Morris....

Chris Eberhart has some really great books. He works in more realistic conditions than a lot of other writers. Greg Miller books are alright but very simplified. I think I would like them better if I had never watched his show.

Does Mapping Trophy bucks have much value for a non-hill hunter? Not many hills in the area I hunt.

My all-time faves:

Brad Herndon's, Bill Vale's and Jeff Murray's MOONSTRUCK.

You'll come to find out that you likely won't agree 100% with an author's book content, and that's surely the case for me.

That said, I really like the Eberhart books. I found them an easy read that held quality content. I gleaned what I believed would work for my system. I do like the way some of the books were set up (calendar year) for the linear steps hunters take.

Herndon's book is useful too. I hunt flat land 90% of the time, but still I think it helps flatlanders think critically.

Haven't gotten around to Vale's book...mostly because I find it insanely expensive as compared to others.

I like Don Higgins book Hunting Trophy Whitetails in the Real World. Excellant book in my opinion.

Thanks for the suggestions. I have most of them except for Worthington, Morris, and Vale. I've heard very good things about the Vale book. I also have all of Eberharts DVD's and just purchased the 2 Hunting Beast DVD's. Please keep those suggestions coming.

Thank you!
