all-around excellent

After searching in vain for books on Black-Tailed deer for years, I purchased Dr. Terkla's fine book many years ago. His scientific training comes thru in his straight-forward, logical approach in which he talks about the favorite browse plants in different seasons, their behavioral habits, water requirements, and preferred habitats. He uses this information to explain how to successfully hunt these elusive creatures. He also goes into detail on how to minimize your human scent, discusses the need for maintaining good physical condition, and makes a good case for consuming venison as a health-conscious strategy. Finally, his tone is an encouraging one, and he approaches this subject with humility and admiration for the deer. If you believe that hunting is all about how powerful your rifle is then this book is not for you. If you see hunting as a complex set of skills using knowledge of deer habits, weather, plants, navigation, a good level of fitness, and patience then you will find this book useful. This is a thinking man's guide to hunting black-tailed deer.

Well researched and very informative

Shelves of books exist about whitetails, but very little is in print concerning black tailed deer. Terkla fills a real need. I am an amatuer naturalist and a hunter, and I found his book to be very well researched. He cites from numerous studies found only in college archives and wildlife department file cabinets: information that is inexcessible to the general public. It compares favorably to the text on blacktails published in the 1950s by the Washington Department of Game (now the Department of Fish and Wildlife). Details include the seasonal movement and diet of blacktails, their favored habitat, and the best methods to observe and hunt these shy creatures. Forget about trying to translate what you read about whitetails or mule deer to the blacktailed deer. This book will deals with them specifically.
