Title: Best Ground Hunting Book?
Post by: Keuka on August 13, 2007, 09:25:00 PM
Whats the most informative book you've seen on stalking, still hunting and ground blind hunting. It seems like there's little to read on hunting at eye level.

Fred Asbell's book on stalking and still hunting.

The Still-Hunter (Theodore Van Dyke)

Originally a series of articles printed in 1881, it was not specifically directed solely towards bow hunting but it is very appropriate for any bowhunter who wants to hunt deer from the ground.

I like Fred's book too.

Don't know if it is best...but Fred's book (above) is pretty good.

Fred Asbells book is outstanding. I have read and re-read it many times.

I am about half way thru Asbell's book and am getting a lot out of it.  So another vote for it.

Thanks for the information. I've been a ground hunter for 40 years myself and I learn something, usually through getting busted, every time I hunt.

I have both of Freds' other books so I'll give this one a try.
