Real Hunting & (and) Campfire Humor: Short Stories From A Lifetime of Travel and Adventure

Real Hunting & Campfire Humor - short, true hunting stories. Alaska grizzly bears, polar bear, deer, elk, mountain goats and sheep, unusual people. Very funny, your wife will love it. This book explains a lot, like why buy new furniture or college tuition when you could spend that same money on an African safari? Jack O’Connor took three cartridges out of his famous .270 Winchester for me to shoot an elk. Thirty years later, I finally used one cartridge on The Sportsman Channel. Fifty-two other hilarious and serious stories like the Worst Hunter in the World, The Ruling Reptile, terrifying 1,500 pound loose and live crocodile in our boat. Funny-the next day! World Record Alaska Moose. Two Giant Elk Crush My Wife‘s New Car Roof. If Horses Had Wings. At 79, my last Dall Sheep, maybe, just maybe. The Greatest True Fish story ever told. Hardback, 214 pages, 40 black and white photos. My first book, Hunting Adventures Worldwide, Jim Zumbo suggested I write the book the way I talk around the campfire. Oddly enough most of the readers say the book sounds as if Jack O’Connor himself had a hand in writing. This book features the famous legend “Jack O’Connor’s Last Hunt”. Jack Jr. and I hunted with Jack and Bradford O’Connor on Jack’s final hunt, in eastern Montana for big whitetail, deer and antelope. I told Jack that story about hunting tigers in North Korea during the war. Jack said “it was the damnedest story he ever heard”, and I should call the story Hunting Tigers the Hard Way. In part why I was wounded by enemy artillery, but got no tiger skin. Other great stories include Bongo in the Congo, and Big Sheep in Mongolia. Mule deer, elk and moose hunts, and terrifying bear encounters. A wonderful collection of true stories. Hardback, 256 pages, many photos. “Jack O’Connor’s Last Hunt” was featured in Outdoor Life, that story was probably read by more people than any other hunting story ever written.
