Book Synopsis

You may find it hard to believe, but the average hunter still can find quality hunting for various game birds across the country, both on public and private land. The proof is in these pages. This series of guidebooks helps you better understand game birds and how they utilize their environment, while also teaching you a proven method for locating those elusive birds on hunting trips far from home.

Ben Williams has been chasing prairie birds for a very long time and can do so fairly close to home, but he still hits the road each year in search of new hunting country. And he finds it. Many of these places are on public lands or private lands open to hunting through state-run programs, places available to anyone willing to do some homework.

The method Ben has developed for locating excellent hunting opportunities when local bird populations are at their peak was honed through many years of experience. Read this book and you'll soon know everything you need to know to make your next trip the best you've ever had, and you'll pick up a wealth of hunting and traveling tips as well.
