Companion opens with well-researched information about the bird itself, then launches in to the book's underpinning, the how-to section.

That youthful experience marked the beginning of Levy's reverence for the chukar and his indefatigable passion for hunting it. Here, Levy presents a lyrical and honest look at the world of hunting this "gorgeous, complicated, strong-flying" bird. He explores the complex (and controversial) layers of hunting through powerful descriptions of the hunt itself, the natural history of the bird, the grueling physicality of upland pursuit, the companionship of a worthy bird dog, and thoughtful reflections on the enduring allure of sport hunting.
Download or read book Echoes on Rimrock written by Levy Buddy and published by West Winds Press. This book was released on 1999-03 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We will pursue these birds. We have confronted them, and they have shown themselves to us and have offered that we follow them. And in part, it is the mystery of whether we will encounter them again that keeps one leg trailing after the other. It is becoming part of this wild land, walking a game trail that perhaps no human has ever walked, that draws us in. As we walk, we will anticipate those moments ahead in which we may engage in a ritual both ancient and primitive, a relationship at once completely modern and as old as the rocks on which we stand. From memories of heading into early twilight to go hunt with his father to stories of pursuing the chukar partridge in the dead of winter, author and avid hunter, Buddy Levy, presents a lyrical and honest look at the world of hunting the chukar partridge. ""Chukar hunting combines the best of all upland game bird pursuit into one challenging package: gorgeous, complicated, strong flying birds, physically and psychologically demanding terrain, and difficult and rewarding dog work. What else is there?"" Echoes on Rimrock: In Pursuit of the Chukar Partridge combines compelling stories of pursuit with helpful and practical information about the sport. After years of hunting the chukar, Levy shares advice on how and where to find birds, hunting tactics, maneuvering across precipitous terrain, and the necessary gear, from guns to boots. Also included are Levy's insights on choosing the right bird dog (his own beloved dog, Cajun, makes several appearances in the book), and recipes for the ""chukar gourmet."" This book explores all the layers and facets of hunting through powerful descriptions of the hunt itself, the natural history of the birdand the landscape, the physical demand of pursuit, and finally thoughtful reflections on the allure of sport hunting. As Levy explains, ""Chukar hunting is meaningful not only for its harvests but for where it takes you, for the landscapes you have to enter....The pursuit will teach about the behavior of the creatures you encounter as well as the limits of your mental and physical tenacity.""

Download or read book Confessions of a Poachin Parson written by Dun Gordy and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2004 with total page 115 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A preacher wrote this collection of absolutely essential nonsense. It is guaranteed that every word you read will be the purely fabricated and well-garnished truth based on solid and verifiable fiction. By necessity, the names of some of the folk on these pages have been changed in order to protect their guilt. The preacher is a sometime fisherman and an every-chance-I-get hunter. He holds charter membership in one of the most notorious and exclusive sporting clubs in all of North America. And it is because of his frequent association with fellow members that he sometimes has difficulty handling the truth without taking some awful liberties with it. You would too, if you hung around with the likes of this crew. He has traveled over a lot of the real estate of our wonderful globe. He has seen the beauty of Galilee's sea and Australia's great coral reefs, Hawaii's silver sand and Canada's magnificent Rockies. He has traveled by dugout log canoe to headwaters of the mighty Amazon and gazed on Niagara Falls. He's been from the bottom of the Grand Canyon to the top of the Sears Tower. But the most beautiful sights in this world, he declares, are seen from the top of Pole Creek ridge, Marble Creek pass, the knob on Greenhorn Mountain and an elk stand in Eastern Oregon.

Download or read book Outdoors Year Round written by Stephen C. Ausband and published by University of Virginia Press. This book was released on 2006 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To the west is a stretch of Interstate 95 running from the D.C. suburbs to the South Carolina state line. To the east is the Atlantic Ocean. What lies in between, a four-hundred-mile stretch of coastal country traversing Virginia and North Carolina, is home to some of the best hunting and fishing grounds on the East Coast. For the first time, those who love to hunt and fish this unique area have a book. In Outdoors Year Round Stephen Ausband looks at an uncommonly rich spectrum of outdoor opportunities. Readers will delight in accounts of night fishing in Pamlico Sound, surf casting at Chincoteague, and bottom fishing in Chesapeake Bay. Ausband also covers large and small game, including numerous waterfowl and upland bird hunts, deer hunting tips for both rifle and bow hunters, and the pleasures of tracking bear with a practiced guide. The book is laid out chronologically, its twelve chapters covering each of the twelve months, from duck hunting in January to fishing for gray trout at Christmastime. Each chapter features two trips that allow the reader to take full advantage of what each month has to offer. These custom itineraries, which include complete traveling instructions and pricing information, outline exceptional hunting and fishing opportunities that do not strain the pocketbook. But Ausband provides more than just great practical advice. He also relates his personal experiences as an avid outdoorsman, one who has heard the howl of the red wolf near the Alligator River and flushed black ducks on the Eastern Shore--as well as his thoughts on introducing newcomers, particularly young people, to the diversity of life in the tidal zone. This is a book sportsmen will reach for, month in and month out. With Outdoors Year Round, there is no off-season.
