Although this is an old book it contains invaluable knowledge on the art of still-hunting (stalking) white-tailed deer and pronghorn antelope. A consummate work on woodsmanship, game animal behavior, shooting skills, and deer hunting tactics. A genuine masterpiece written long before the days of "hunting technology" when a hunter depended solely on his keen senses, comprehensive knowledge of his quarry, sound judgment, and good old fashioned woodsmanship in order to be a successful hunter. A must-read for anyone who truly appreciates deer hunting. ( ) aucune critique | ajouter une critique
A favorite book of President Theodore Roosevelt that inspired his hunting during his time in the badlands of North Dakota. "That mystic tie, which binds in one circle of enchantment all the varied scenes in which the rifle, rod, or gun play a part, must make the subject of this work of some interest to every lover of the field, whether he uses the rifle or not, and whether he ever expects to hunt large game or not. I have therefore endeavored to treat it in such a manner as to be at least readable to all such, as well as interesting to those who desire the information it contains. The part on rifles and rifle-shooting and on game may be interesting to all who love the sporting rifle. And, judging from the comments and letters in the leading papers upon fieldsports at the time when I first wrote upon the use of the rifle in the field, even the experienced hunter may find a hint or two that may one day serve him." -Theodore Van Dyke Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |
