Review:

In a crowded field, Boone and Crockett Club's Complete Guide to Hunting Whitetails is a trophy that truly stands out from the herd. Comprehensive but also a good read, this publication should become the go-to book for the avid deer hunter. -- Doug Painter, Associate Publisher & Editorial Advisor, Sporting Classics Magazine

As an infrequent deer hunter having a ready reference field guide can be invaluable. Boone and Crockett Club’s Complete Guide to Hunting Whitetails fits the bill. A compendium of expert advice from the Club’s notables, the guide’s chapters on shooting, judging ages in the field and hunting tactics were especially helpful. For writing research, there is a chapter devoted to whitetail stats, and as an amateur photographer, the tips on field photos will improve my work with many subjects. Well written with excellent photos and illustrations, it is guaranteed to be a oft used guide in my sporting library. -- Tom Sadler, Western Illinois University, Outdoor Writers Association of America

Even for the most seasoned hunters, there's much to be learned in this one-of-a-kind compilation. -- David Hart, The Outfitter, Petersen's Hunting, November 2014
