Whitetail Hunter's Almanac, 10th Edition

Dr. Nordberg’s half-century of hunting-related research with wild whitetails has enabled him to disprove the many myths about whitetails that have misled American deer hunters for centuries and introduce six new hunting methods that can honestly guarantee regular hunting success for mature bucks and other deer. Throughout the history of regulated whitetail hunting in America, deer hunters have been fortunate to take 1–2 mature bucks in a lifetime. About half return home from hunts each fall with unused deer tags and roughly 90% of deer taken are immature fawns and yearlings. You can now change all that. Whether you are a beginner or advanced deer hunter, this book will put you close to mature unsuspecting bucks and other whitetails every day you hunt. Major topics include: • How to take advantage of deer signs that ensure hunting success. • How to key on mature bucks during the five phases of the four-month rut. • How to recognize, prepare and use mature-buck-effective stand sites. • How to keep close to unsuspecting bucks and other deer every day of a hunt. • How to use six new, mature-buck-effective hunting methods. There is no more productive whitetail hunting advice available today than that which is found throughout this epic book, including many tips following the three rewarding words: “Hunt like Doc.” Dr. Nordberg has written more than 800 no-nonsense magazine articles and 12 books about whitetails and whitetail hunting based on his half-century of nationwide hunting-related research with wild deer and 74 years of deer hunting. He was an early pioneer of tree stand hunting and was first to accurately describe the whitetail rut in his Whitetail Hunters Almanac, 2nd Edition published in 1989. Read more
