darbo 4,774 Posted August 31, 2013 Report Share Posted August 31, 2013 The book came this morning enjoying it a great deal. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Astral 253 Posted August 31, 2013 Report Share Posted August 31, 2013 Just finished it, Had to hide it from myself and start two other books to distract me from reading the whole thing in one night though, you can get very engrossed in all the discussions! Very much enjoyed it and well worth a read to those still deciding if to buy it. I loved the USA section about coyote hunting, and the insights into each hunters techniques and feelings. Bit annoyed its finished now, could do with some suggestions on more hunting books now! Great read Simon well done. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

socks 32,253 Posted October 16, 2013 Report Share Posted October 16, 2013 I enjoyed mine a different slant on most books that talk about the author only ... Its good to read how others hunt and what mindset they have on the hunting world and how they view the lurcher and its quarry ... What I would have maybe liked would have been different questions posed to different people so that you were not always getting the same questions and answers ... Overall a thoroughly enjoyable read .............. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dytkos 17,528 Posted October 30, 2013 Report Share Posted October 30, 2013 Finally finished it for the second time last week. Initially, I wasn't overly impressed, the size of the book was a little disappointing. Read it through and again initially, I thought some of the questions were a bit repetative. Photos were decent, given some were many years old and reproduced. Quality of the manufacture of the book was decent, of the content, some contributors didn't say much that was anything but some were excellent. I like a book to entertain, educate and enthrall me. It did the first two. All in all, is it a classic? No. Was it worth reading? Yes. Will I buy volume two? Course I will! 7/10 IMO Hope you take this as constructive criticism Si Cheers, D. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Giro 2,648 Posted October 30, 2013 Report Share Posted October 30, 2013 I agree with you D You put that very diplomatically.. Think if you had not been around the internet for a few years,more of the content would be original.. I gave mine to my mates boy, he was buzzing over the book.. I think it was good - but for me I had seen a lot of the pictures and read the stories before with Stabs, Tomo & Andy.. I liked the chapter by Paul 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
