Well my precious wife has given me an incredible gift….she has been searching high and low for these books for me. She inlisted a librarian to search the archives in the US every couple months to see if a copy of Passionate Quest had become available. Well just like each report from the month before, there are simply no copies being circulated, period! I had become pretty discouraged in all honesty and had quit searching for the book. However my wife is persistent and went down rabbit whole after rabbit hole in search of this deer hunting literature that I so desperately wanted. After years of running down every lead she managed to generate She located a copy that had never been circulated!!! After such a long search for such a prized possession, and knowing the respect I have for Mr Bobby, she reached out to him in an attempt to have my copy signed. To my disbelief I was given the awesome opportunity to spend the day with him a couple weeks ago at his home and enjoy the camaraderie, passion, and wisdom of a living legend. I can't say enough good things about Mr. Worthington. Not only is he the finest bowhunter to have taken to the woods IMO, but he is also one of the best representations of a gentlemen that I've had the privilege of shaking hands with. I'm beyond thankful to my wife for her unwavering pursuit of this book and I am grateful to call Bobby my friend.
Wow you done good!

He's a great guy. I have his book. He used to go to Bubbafest in Crossville. And, we went to his restaurant in Pikeville

Here's a video I watched last night. Fast forward to about 39:45 to hear Mr. Bobby tell a special story of his most memorable buck.


Yes that's a great episode they released yesterday. "Andre the Giant" was the buck he took in Clays honor. When he took me to the tree he killed Andre out of it made the hair stand up on my neck. It truly is a sacred place…

Here's a picture of a deer we took in Cade's Cove. I always believed it to be the same buck on the cover of Bow Hunting Trophy Whitetails. My oldest son, who is 23 now, was probably 3 or so when we saw the buck. I remember toting him all the way across a long field to see what everyone was looking at. I think this was in 2003. And if I remember correctly, BHTW was published in 2004.
