Still-Hunting Trophy Whitetails: With Bow, Rifle, Shotgun and Muzzleloader

Description

Anthropologists tell us that primitive man evolved in part because of his abilities to still-hunt - moving silently and methodically in pursuit of big-game animals. Today, still-hunting is the least understood method of tagging trophy whitetail bucks. "Still-Hunting Trophy Whitetails" teaches hunters how to hone their woodsmanship skills to conquer the challenge of stalking bucks, with tips on camouflage and scent control, scrape lines, feeding and bedding areas, and travel routes. Details on yardage estimation, timing, shooting positions, and bow hunting thin cover provide the information necessary for successful 'sneaking and peeking'. Special techniques for calling during the peak of the rut and imitating doe-in-heat bleats, buck contact and tending grunts, fawn-in-distress bleats, and buck clicks and growls round out the book.
