Mapping Trophy Bucks is a good one. Another good book is Whitetail Advantage. Whitetail Advantage ? Who is the author?

I've also wanted to read the book by Bobby Worthington. I think it's "The Science of Bowhunting".

I read Brad Herndon's book "Mapping Trophy Bucks" before the season. I have also become a better hunter. I topo'd a few spots before going to oak ridge on a draw hunt. On the scouting date my buddy and I went to some of the saddles I GPS'd. On one of the he found a matching shed that would score in the 140's. We did not see him or kill him but at least we had confidence knowing a good one had worked those saddles.
Also, on one of my small farms I hunt I hung a stand in an area I'd never hunted before. I saw more deer and killed two pretty decent bucks this year. I wasn't 60 yards from where I usually hunted but that small move put me closer and on more deer.

Yes it talks alot about saddles in mountainous areas. Good read for hilly region hunters.
