About this title

Synopsis

One of the most captivating aspects of hunting a whitetail buck is tracking and taking him on his turf, on his terms. For most hunters, tracking generates a feeling of satisfaction like no other deer-hunting tactic can. Yet while most of us fantasize about duplicating the efforts of the well-known trackers of Maine, such as the Benoits or Bloods, the reality of effective tracking is that it requires several critical elements.
Many hunters feel less than capable when it comes to knowing how to track a buck successfully. They have been brainwashed by magazine articles that leave them thinking that they must be doing something wrong. Nonsense! Peter J. Fiduccia tells us in Tracking Deer that tracking can be easy, if you learn to think like the deer and work to master the fundamentals.
In this comprehensive guide you will learn how to regulate and maintain space when pursuing a deer, which is key to remaining undetected. Crucial
factors such as reading sign, orienteering, and the importance of being in
tip-top shape are discussed in detail. You will also be trained to figure out the favorite trails of a wise old buck, what he will do under pressure, what his
preferred escape routes are, where he will head when he is nervous, and how he will use cover to his advantage. When added to basic tracking skills, all of these techniques will give you an edge this hunting season, even when you're hunting a trophy buck.
