Download or read book Roadhunting written by Sean Michael Collins and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2015-09-02 with total page 227 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why would anyone want to roadhunt? Some folks might ask. A number of you reading this book already know why you would. A number of those who ask this question with shock and dismay will be landowners who ironically will have posted large chunks of property to keep everyone but themselves, their friends and family out; then sadly shake their head at the state of aff airs wherein roadhunting exists. The fact is that if there were decent access for all roadhunting would not exist to the extent that it does. But often times the people that bitch and complain the most about roadhunting are those that are primarily responsible for it. For some folks roadhunting is nothing more than a means to extend their hunting time while driving to and from their hunting area and/or something to do on days where there is inclement weather. For others, especially those who live where there is little to no public hunting land; roadhunting may be the only practical way to put game in the freezer. Landowners (contrary to what many of them would have you believe) do not own the deer or other game. Wild animals are owned (so to speak, if anyone really can own them) by the public; and you my friend are a member of the public. Many landowners feel that they de facto own wild game because it lives on their property, so if you must temporarily access someone elses private property to get what is yours, then so be it. I would freely admit that roadhunting is hardly the highest form of hunting out there; unfortunately a lot of us have neither the time nor money either to aff ord their own property or travel to top notch hunting locations. There is nothing that says roadhunting and fi eld hunting have to be mutually exclusive; that you have to do either one or the other. The author spends three hundred plus hours a year deer hunting in the fi eld or woods and some years are certainly better than others. Therefore when a gift deer comes along and presents itself by the road, Im not going to feel bad about taking it. I fail to see how anyone can be hurt by knowing how to roadhunt; whether you practice it or not is up to you, but you may fi nd the knowledge helpful some day when times get tough. Also nothing says you cant use what you learn from this book just to help enhance your deer viewing activities. Once you learn roadhunting its like riding a bicycle or shooting a rifl e; you never really forget how. And even if you dont care for the instructional portions of this book, hopefully you will fi nd the stories entertaining. A majority of this book has to do with roadhunting whitetail deer (with a chapter thrown in about small game) in Michigan. However the author would point out that he has spotted whitetail in eight other states and two Canadian Provinces. Also I have at diff erent times spotted mule deer, elk, and antelope. Being who I am, I couldnt help but notice that on numerous of these occasions I honestly believe I could have pulled off a successful roadhunt had I so desired. Although the hands on tactics, so to speak, laid out in this book are based on experiences that happened in Michigan, I fi rmly believe that they can be used almost anywhere. Some of the tactics and information contained in this book are legal in some places and not others; and some are illegal everywhere. Therefore this book should be read for educational and entertainment purposes only. Neither the author nor publisher accepts any responsibility or liability for the use or misuse of information contained in this book. With that said; good luck and good hunting.

Download or read book Williamson Valley Road written by Kathy Lopez and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2011-11-21 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Centuries ago, Williamson Valley Road began as a game trail for native inhabitants. In the 1400s, ancestors of the Yavapai and Hualapai hunted along ancient footpaths. Later explorers widened these paths for horses. The 1800s brought military wagons transporting supplies between the Rawlins, Hualapai/Tollgate, and Fort Whipple camps while traders and settlers followed in stagecoaches. The fertile lands of Mint Valley, Williamson Valley, and Walnut Creek were ideal for raising stock and produce. Farmers sailed from Europe and up the Colorado River before traversing the Hardyville Toll Road. Ranchers imported the fittest stock and exported the finest meat with the expertise of Mexican ranch hands. Camp Wood timbermen met the demand for lumber. Eastern store owners set up shop as railroaders laid far-reaching plans but short-reaching rails. Residents in the early 1900s arrived at rodeos, camp meetings, concerts, and dances in their Model Ts using this road. Present-day suburbanites, schoolchildren, and contractors commute on Williamson Valley Road, which was designated as a Scenic and Historic Route in 2010.

Download or read book Along Old Canada Road written by James E. Benson and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2008 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Beginning in the town of Solon, Old Canada Road winds for nearly 80 miles through the Upper Kennebec and Dead River Valleys before ending at the Canadian border. Following ancient aboriginal trails and early trade routes to Quebec City, Old Canada Road was traveled by Benedict Arnold and his army of 1,100 men in their failed 1775 quest to capture Quebec. By the mid-19th century the small villages along the route grew as the immigration of French Canadians blossomed and logging became a major industry in the region. This pristine wilderness also became a sportsman's paradise, attracting wealthy families from Boston, New York, and beyond. Today the Forks and West Forks cater to a new breed of sport as the center of white-water rafting on the Kennebec and Dead Rivers. The region is a major hub for snowmobiling, hunting, and hiking throughout the year.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hungarian partridge were first introduced to Saskatchewan 100 years ago. The birds flourished and soon expanded their range to include the American West and Midwest. Only in the last several decades have hunters turned serious attention to these tremendous game birds, but due to their fickle and often mysterious nature, the challenge has proven difficult at best for the majority of us. Ben O. Williams, however, has been writing about and hunting Huns for over 30 years, having accumulated over 5,000 hours afield in their pursuit with his ever evolving line of Brittany spaniels. Ben is the most accomplished and eloquent mentor for Hungarian partridge hunters presently found on planet earth, and this information packed book is the proof. Don't lend it to anyone, and don't lose it, for it provides you with all the distilled knowledge required to attain consistent success on your own Hun hunts.

Download or read book Hunting You Ve Got to Be Kidding written by Kevin Aelred Dettler and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2018-03-15 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hunting: Youve Got to Be Kidding! is my narrative of reaching a major milestone as a hunter. This documentation of my pursuit contains spiritual, financial, emotional, and sometimes humorous excerpts of my hunting career. Why do I hunt? Im pressed for an answer to this question daily because my lifes passion is on public display. Trophys Steakhouse, which Becky and I own, provides an atmosphere of exuberance and a forum to promote hunting. Museum would describe Trophys much closer than steak house, as the restaurant is enriched with the rewards of twenty years of successful trophy collection. Our customers are both hunters and nonhunters who appreciate the hunting theme and dont require an answer to the question. Invariably, I must provide a detailed explanation to a select few as to why I havent changed from a hunter-gatherer to the modern rendition of a man. My respect for wild animals complicates my answer. Our genetic engineering by God places us as masters of animal and plant life, both of whom are alive and function to nourish us. Therefore, my answer is because I am pursuing a bred-in instinct to hunt and gather as our ancestors did for a millennium. I am proud to have this genetic makeup. I continue to preserve Gods creatures by being part of the hunting community. Hunters generously contribute time and money to increase habitat for wild animals while at the same time protect hunters rights. I have achieved my hunting goals because of the contributions of hunters!

Download or read book A Hunting We Did Go written by Lloyd Antypowich and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2012-09-28 with total page 231 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To sit in natures cathedral and look down on the creators masterpiece is almost a spiritual experience for Lloyd Antypowich. Every year, for forty years, he took time out of his busy life and followed the call of his heart as it led him into the mountains that he loved. He revelled in their magnificence, the splendour of nature and the solitude that recharged his batteries. He sharpened his senses, as he pitted his skills against those of the animals that he stalked; animals that in their own territory are much more skilled than man, and time after time beat him in the challenge. If he got his game it was a bonus. The real success was reconnecting with nature and enjoying the peace that he found there, away from the stress and chaos of everyday life. Many dream of experiencing nature as he did, but he lived those dreams. In A Hunting We Did Go, True Mountain Adventures, the author takes you along on his journeys into the mountains. While you read, you feel like he is right there beside you, sharing his experiences with you. You feel his wonder, his awe, the excitement of the stalk, his exhaustion after a rough climb or hours in the saddle, his fear when he comes face to face with a grizzly bear, a cougar and even an unhappy moose. You will also experience his satisfaction when he outwits his prey and the effort of bringing the meat into camp. From his personal experience and firsthand knowledge of the subject and the settings, the author has woven a compelling read that shares the reality of hunting in the mountains.
