Well, after reading this book over the course of a couple years from the bench at the book store I fianlly broke down and decided to give Brand Herndon what he deserves. This is probably the best and most practical deer hunting book available. This book has taught me a lot about reading maps, deer travel, and one of the most important lessons I've learned is to disregard sign and hunt the terrain.

It is one of the few deer hunting books/articles I have ever read that is not just a bunch of fluff and "set up between the feeding and bedding area" same old - same old. That book is a keeper, imo.

Good info there for sure, much common sense put in print here and easy to understand. Terrain is KEY to consistent success on mature deer, its the onlly thing remotelly predictable about them! The book is worth the money for most!

Mapping Trophy Bucks is a good one. Another good book is Whitetail Advantage.
