Bowhunter's Guide to Accurate Shooting (The Complete Hunter) September 15, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I found this book very helpful. I am new to archery, and it taught me alot about how to set up my bow, how to estimate distance, which broad heads to use, ect.. I can't wait to take what I have learned into the woods. I would recommend it.
Great book--highly recommended September 1, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
After a 7 year absence I recently purchased a new Mathews Drenalin DXT and am eager to get back into bowhunting. Having forgotten much of what I had previously learned I purchased this book based on previous recommendations. I wasn't disappointed. Lon covers the entire gambit of bow hunting and make is both easy and entertaining doing it. A great book especially for beginners or those like myself just getting back into it. Some may think his stories of hunts similar to bragging but I enjoyed them and if you pay attention you learn from them as well. Definitely worth a 5-star rating!

I learned a great deal from this book. I am an intermediate bowhunter and found the information very interesting. I know whether a bow shop is blowing smoke up my #$% now.
A NEWBIE'S BEST FRIEND GOING INTO ARCHERY & BOWHUNTING July 1, 2008 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
Starting at zero baseline of knowledge and experience and no close friends in the sport, I had to "get up to speed" myself to be able to make a sizeable investment in equipment and develop the know-how to pursue a new life adventure into archery elk hunting. This is a serious undertaking and sizeable resource commitment and nothing short of excellence would be acceptable in both the equipment and the preparation to be an ethical hunter.
I needed everything and knew nothing. Like fly-fishing, which is my passion and obsession, archery has a differnt language, different materials and requires differnt skill sets to master to be adequate enough to be able to progress in the sport. Without a mentor but a deep seated drive to excel in this sport I have been like a sponge seeking out morsels of knowledge. This book was manna.
I am still learning; I am still reading and re-reading. This book has helped me more than any other reference I have found. I will continue to use the writings in this book to help educate and prepare myself as I develop my skills for this new life adventure.

Another five-star review for this book might seem a little redundant, but it's earned it. Don't be misled by its size; it's only 120 pages long, but it's PACKED with concentrated, clearly-written, QUALITY information. After wasting WAY too many bucks on books with rambling, unorganized writing and shoddy illustration, this book gets a place of honor on my shelf. It should set the standard for "how-to" books on outdoor sports.
(One very mild criticism: there are a few too many photographs of Lon grinning next to his trophies, but hey - it's his book, after all...)
