For turkey hunting stories and not bow hunting, but Gene Nunnery is great. Old Pro Turkey Hunter and I Will Lift Up Mine Eyes Unto The Hills are as good as they get!

Dad wouldn't let me hunt deer until I read "Shots at Whitetails" by Lawrence Koller, probably written in the 1940's or 1950's (1948). The area is the Catskills in upstate NY where I hunted as a young person and later lived and worked while going to school.

One thing that was written of was still hunting. Dad was really good at it. He slipped up on me more than once. Here in Central Illinois, it's mostly stand hunting, but years ago, from time to time, I would practice still hunting. There is an intensity about it that is also serenely peaceful.

In addition to my favorites that I've already mentioned on this site hunting the Osage bow and the witchery of archery. My wife just bought me traditional bow hunting by clay hayes for my birthday very excited
