clrj3514 Posted September 5, 2011 Report Share Posted September 5, 2011 I'm sure there's some of you guys here who enjoy reading. What are some good hunting books? Fiction or Nonfiction, just not instructional books. Thanks in advance! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

c_lou Posted September 6, 2011 Report Share Posted September 6, 2011 i like pat mcmanus. you'll learn nothing about hunting but you'll smile not learning it.... lol I am in the middle of Kerplunk! by McManus. I have laughed at every story in that book. I also finished up "If you didn't bring Jerky...What did I just eat" by Bill Heavy. I laughed at most of the stories and there are a few that will bring you to tears. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wtnhunt Posted September 6, 2011 Report Share Posted September 6, 2011 For an informational book on deer might check out Way of the Whitetail by Leonard Lee Rue III. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mossyhorn Posted September 12, 2011 Report Share Posted September 12, 2011 I really liked the politically incorrect guide to hunting. its a good read and also arms you with useful information if you are caught in a debate about why hunting should be banned. and for me its proved useful because i actually have actually had a few debates with a friend of mine that is vegan and doesn't like hunting. In the end we are a lot alike, in the aspect we both love nature but i choose to hunt and eat meat and he doesnt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jbeck Posted September 19, 2011 Report Share Posted September 19, 2011 I've read this one 5 times and can't stop. Death in the long grass by Peter Capstick, also check out his Death in Silent Places, another great book. He's a PH in Africa. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also finished up "If you didn't bring Jerky...What did I just eat" by Bill Heavy. I laughed at most of the stories and there are a few that will bring you to tears. "If you didnt bring jerky, what did I just eat" by Bill Heavey is an excellent book. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
