Whitetail Movement
by John WoottersThe very essence of deer hunting is the challenge of figuring where a given buck will be at a given time and trying to position oneself to intercept him. To do this, the hunter has to understand why whitetails move around within their home ranges and when, where they come from and where they go, and along which trails and corridors. He needs to know what moves deer and what prevents their movement, and how to take advantage of his conclusions.<P> With keen insight based on a half-century of experience, and with a genuine database yielding thousands of deer sightings under widely varying conditional parameters, John Wootters is uniquely qualified to share his knowledge on whitetail movement.
Whitetail Nation: My Season in Pursuit of the Monster Buck
by Pete BodoEvery autumn, millions of men and women across the country don their camo, stock up on doe urine, and undertake a quintessential American tradition - deer hunting. The pinnacle of a hunter's quest is killing a buck with antlers that "score" highly enough to qualify in the Boone and Crockett record book. But in all his seasons on the trail, Pete Bodo, an avid outdoorsman and student of the hunt, had never reached that milestone. Sadly, he had to admit it -- he was a nimrod. Whitetail Nation is the uproarious story of the season Pete Bodo set out to kill the big buck. From the rolling hills of upstate New York to the vast and unforgiving land of the Big Sky to the Texas ranches that feature high fences, deer feeders, and money-back guarantees, Bodo traverses deep into the heart of a lively, growing subculture that draws powerfully on durable American values- the love of the frontier, the importance of self reliance, the camaraderie of men in adventure, the quest for sustained youth, and yes, the capitalist's right to amass every high tech hunting gadget this industry's exploding commerce has to offer. Gradually, Bodo closes in on his target - that elusive monster buck -- and with each day spent perched in a deer stand or crawling stealthily in high grass (praying the rattlesnakes are gone) or shivering through the night in a drafty cabin (flannel, polar fleece and whiskey bedamned), readers are treated with a hilarious and unforgettable tour through a landscape that ranges from the exalted to the absurd. Along the way Bodo deftly captures the spirit and passion of this rich American pursuit, tracing its history back to the days of Lewis and Clark and examining that age old question - "why do men hunt?"
