Before I even start, a heads up that I got pre-approval from Mr. Synder prior to posting so please don't kill my post.
Many of you may have seen this last year, however, my timing was horrible and the book hit the press just as most folks were heading to the field.
If you haven't seen it yet, it's geared towards the new hunter which is why I hadn't pimped it here yet. Most here seem well past the beginner stage, but the more I thought about it I realized you're also the perfect audience. As you go from beginner, to intermediate, to advanced (if there really is such a thing) there's a natural progression to help out the new hunters as they automatically drift toward those with experience looking for help. And instead of sitting down with someone for 5 hours reviewing the basics, or telling them to use the search function on Rokslide, it may make more sense to tell them to pick up a copy (or e-book), then come back and ask some real questions.
The book was written for the first timer, so some parts are extremely fundamental but I wanted to make sure those new to hunting were not missing out on the basics. I have been receiving some great feedback so it’s been very encouraging.
My favorite response to date was from one of the ladies in our archery club. She hunts with her husband who is her hunting mentor, he’s is also an extremely successful and accomplished archer. But she confessed to me that more often than not she’s along for the ride as he tells her what to do while they’re hunting. After reading the book she felt like she had received more instruction than she ever got from her husband. She also attributed filling her tag this year to a tip she read in the book; always having an arrow knocked while sitting, a VERY basic tip. But if you think about it a successful trip is really nothing more than doing a lot of little things right.
I wanted to give it one more marketing plug while it’s still fresh. It’s available through Amazon (http://www.amazon.com/-/e/B00ES47XVI) and has received quite a few reviews (mostly positive
).
Thanks all,
Matt Dworak
