I have read very few books that really have helped me become a better deer hunter. Most are basic and many of them are written about hunting areas that are very different then East TN. The most helpful book I have read is Mapping Trophy Bucks by Brad Herndon. I got more useful info from that book than probably all the other books I have read put together. I am reading Bobby Worthington's book Bowhunting Trophy Whitetails, it is a pretty good book from a fellow Tennessee hunter.
