A Guide to the Wild Side

By Cameron R. Hanes

After you read “Backcountry Bowhunting” , just published by Eastman's Publishing Company and written by noted bowhunter Cameron R. Hanes (author of the best-selling book “Bowhunting Trophy Blacktail” on page 14) you will believe that no backcountry challenge is too great. Hanes' pioneering approach to hardcore, do-it-yourself bowhunting will help any new backcountry hunter and might just inspire even the most experienced to rethink their approach. Cameron prepares you to not only survive, but to push your limits in the West's most secluded hunting spots where grit and a “quitters need not apply” attitude are required. “Backcountry Bowhunting” covers the challenges, strategies, tips and tactics, trophy animal behavior, and the equipment you will need to hit the backcountry head on, and then come out of the mountains loaded down with antlers and meat. Detailed chapters on elk, mule deer, bear, Sitka blacktail, Alaska caribou. Hardcover, 6x9-inch format, 288 pages, many photographs in color and black and white. We agree with bowhunting legend Chuck Adams, who said this of Cameron's new book: “Cameron has hit a home run with his new book ... Cameron redefines the term ‘hardcore' with amazing advice on how to bowhunt rugged country where giant animals hang out. I know hardcover – and this is it. A must read for every serious archer!” And since we've always advocated that the two key words to achieve any desired hunting results are “hard work” we agree, with one addition – like Dwight Schuh's famous “Hunting Open Country Mule Deer,” this book is a “must read” for any serious hunter, not just for bowhunters.
