" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield

Something that people overlook when digging up reading material when it pertains to hunting is literature on the animal itself.  Understanding animal behavior, breeding habits, migration habits, and food sources is a huge asset in the field.  Anything Valerius Geist is solid.
It is foolish and wrong to mourn these men.  Rather, we should thank god that such men lived.  -General George S. Patton

I agree, although Geist's detailed discussion of necrotic stomotitis in wintering elk put me to sleep on more than one reading attempt.  Make sure you have some caffeine handy just in case. :)
