Book Synopsis

Any bowhunter with experience in hard-hunted areas can testify to the frustrations of hunting pressured deer. Picking up where ordinary deer hunting manuals leave off, Bowhunting Pressured Whitetails covers in detail everything you need to know to take mature bucks in regions where hunting pressure has increased deer's wariness and ability to evade hunters. Veteran hunters John and Chris Eberhart explain how to use a Tree Sling for increased shot opportunities, how to scout and prepare sites while leaving minimal evidence of human presence, and how to read deer sign to find the most productive places to hunt. Other topics include scent control, resources to draw on when seeking new places to hunt, and the value of fitness for serious hunting. Aimed specifically at bowhunters in pressured areas, this book also contains a wealth of information useful to hunters everywhere.
