A collection of valuable lessons learned within the context of specific whitetail hunts. This book is not an organized, smooth flow of information. On the contrary, this work is a collage of discrete pockets of knowledge gleamed on particular outings. Hit or miss, there is usually something to appreciate and build on in the pursuit of game animals. The purpose of this book is to give a more detailed account of what exactly was learned and when. There is no chronological order to the presentation of material. All of the excerpts are independent of one another and can be read separately. Inadvertently, whitetails teach us many lessons to their detriment. We just have to pay attention.
