Dr. Ken Nordberg's do-it-yourself Black Bear Baiting & Hunting Revised 2001 Edition

Dr. Ken Nordberg's Whitetail Hunter's Almanac 7th Edition

John Nordberg -- Dr. Ken Nordberg's "Johnny-on-the-Spot" whitetail hunting technique combined with his "Cruise Trail" technique -- explained in his 8th Almanac -- is perhaps the most sophisticated and deeply developed method of hunting big bucks ever developed and explained in print. You can plan all you want before the season, but after it starts, you have to adapt quickly. By scouting ahead of time, by planning ahead, by using previous season's knowledge, by building cruise trails, by picking alternative ground blind locations, and their approach trails, all ahead of time, you greatly improve your odds of changing where and how you hunt a big buck in real-time during the season. Chapter 9 is unfortunately about me. While I wounded a buck, which I am not proud of, this story is a great example of how to use the two-man technique of trailing and killing a wounded animal. When I finally got that buck, it was one of my proudest moments in hunting. Every hunter has a solemn obligation to make their best effort to recover a wounded animal. Right now Dr. Nordberg is out of stock of this edition. Watch for it on eBay. Check with hunting bookstores -- they might still have some in stock. Maybe it will go through another printing someday.
