This groundbreaking book is loaded with new scientific research that will help you become a better deer hunter. This comprehensive guide provides a compilation of in-depth coverage on all methods used to hunt whitetail deer consistently and successfully. Fiduccia's real-world hunting strategies will benefit both the novice and the veteran deer hunter. Each chapter is specifically designed to provide readers with enhanced skills through innovative tips, as well as strategies to help take their deer hunting success to the next level. Many of the chapters include information rarely seen in print before--such as the fact that the moon has nothing to do with the rut (peak breeding season), that hunting is actually great during periods of bad weather, that hunting far off the beaten path is not necessarily the best way to get a big buck, and much, much more. Fiduccia takes these nuggets of information and, with his five decades of whitetail hunting experience, devises strategies that work and that many hunters have never even considered. Simply, anyone who reads this book will gain the knowledge they need to take racked bucks consistently.

This is the do-it-yourself book for anyone who enjoys working with wood. For the hunter there are quick, easy-to-build-and-move tree stands, a workbench for gunsmithing or setting up your bow, a freestanding gun rack, an ammo box, a freestanding fishing-rod rack, and much more. There are projects for the home, too, including a pool or garden gate, shed, country mailbox, picture frame, firewood storage box, and other useful projects.
You don't have to be a professional carpenter or designer to carry out these plans. All you need are some basic skills, a decent set of tools, and the desire to expand your woodworking skills to your outdoorsman's lifestyle.
"Authors Leo Somma and Peter Fiduccia know how to build things correctly,
and it shows, on every page of this book. The tool and material lists,
the cutting schedule for each project, the easy-to-follow diagrams--
it's all right there. Follow the instructions and you'll end up with the tree stand,
gun rack, or shed that you see in the photos. You can also change the designs
without great difficulty and adapt them to your situation."
