I've been reading Blacktail Trohy Tactics and learning some good informaiton. Picked up a used copy off Amazon.
Went on a hike an did some scouting today with my son. I didn't see anything until I got home and was walking behind our house in the woods and notice 3 does just standing still and watching me. I hope to get a deer this season.

Great read. Its amazing how many (ninja) deer you see when you look harder.

Ive heard that book is really the bee's knees when it comes to blacktail. This isnt the first time its came up. Thanks for the added comfirmation on its reputation.

I've been wanting to get a good black tail hunting/tactic book but don't know a good one.
How good is this one? And how do you like it? What all does it talk about? Because I have heard of some black tail books just talking about tree stand hunting.

So far I think it has had a lot of information. There is an earlier addition and I don't know how the two compare. A lot of people on here suggested it so I decided it is probably a good place to start.

Both editions of this book are a must....really really good books :tup:

There are 2 people that will change your success rate IMO. For Blacktail deer it's boyd Iverson. For elk it's elknut. Both have made major changes in my game and have without a doubt positively affected my success. :twocents:

Boyd Iverson gets my vote I found a copy at my local library and I know you can find one at yours too.

I have that one as well. "Trophy Blacktails The Science of the Hunt" by Scott Haugen was the first BT book I picked up and the things I learned from it I say is what helped me harvest deer since. It is a good read and he presents it well. He shares stories and what works for him but wont really say anything is a dead set rule, haha, guess that means he really does know blacktails haha. "Hunting Blacktail Deer" by John Higley is a good one too. Cameron R. Hanes has a lot of good info in his book and DVD as well. I was so glad when I was able to start finding these books and such considering a lot of the folks I have hunted with are the drive the roads and just sit on clearcut hoping to get lucky types.

First I've heard of it! Sounds like a good read though! I'll have to keep my eyes peeled for a copy of my own!
