About this title

Synopsis:

From dust jacket notes: "'When bird covers become abstract and undefined, when trout no longer flash in the riffles, when a buck clearing a fence from a standing start fails to make you gasp with pleasure, it's time for new eyes,' Gene Hill writes in this, his latest book, and the first since his best-selling collection Hill Country to offer such a broad perspective on the American sporting scene. For years Gene Hill has been our new eyes and thus, ironically, our window back to the small pleasures of hunting and fishing or just simply spending time afield. This book is no different. We see ourselves within its pages - our dreams and schemes, hits and misses, moments of perfection and days of falling short. And we are reminded, as Lamar Underwood writes in the foreword, 'not only of how fortunate we have been in the past, but of what we can look forward to our next time out.' Of course, Gene would say, in his self-deprecating manner, that he is just 'passing a good time.' And so he is."
