Just finished reading 'Super Slam' by Chuck Adams.
Very good reading. Chuck Adams is a bowhunter but the book focuses more on the hunt and the animals than the archery equipment.
I got my copy off of eBay. Don't remember the cost but it wasn't too much. Even better, put it on your Xmas list and let somebody else buy it for you.

I'll have to check that out! I always liked reading his column in HUNTING magazine.

Another good site for used books is www.alibris.com. I have bought a lot of books there for as little as .99.

Rick Jamison has a good book on coyote hunting if you haven't read that one.

My list of books to read and find includes Major Boddiker's book on coyotes, and a book by a guy named Frank Glaser called 'Alaska's Wolf Man'...Glaser trapped wolves for 40 years in the Alaska.

Been reading about a book a week for the last 2 years!

Have Alaska's Wolf Man a very good read.
Have most of Boddikers books.
There is some others out of Alaska written by Natives. Can't think of the name of the books right now.

Adams also has one out called 'Life At Full Draw'.
That one's next.

I never knew Major Boddicker wrote a book on coyotes. A few years back I heard that he had written some articles on mountain lions so I looked him up, gave him a call, had a great visit, and he sent me copies of those articles!!

We talked a lot about coyote hunting and articles he has written, but he never even mentioned a book. That figures. He was extremely humble but extremely smart to

It seems like he made it to one of the campouts for a night or 2 many moons ago??

LocoDude;
If you can find a copy, the title is Crit'R-Calling with the Major.
Much like the Major, it's pretty down to earth.

"American Buffalo" by Steven Rinella. I don't know why, but I've always had an interest in buffalo and why they were once the most prolific large animal on the North American continent.

Rinella goes into the history and shares his own hunt for a wild buff in Alaska.

Another vote for "Alaska's Wolf Man"

Got to hunt with Major Boddiker at one of the Huntmasters campouts felt like such a rookie ! He insisted I do the calling !He was unassuming and a fine and humble man with accomplishments I could not imagine!

Yeah, Major is a good guy! No JohnHenry prima donna, he's very, I don't know? Normal? He sure doesn't act like a know it all. Very approachable, too.

Good hunting. El Bee
