It is important to be good at reading sign if you are going to be a good hunter. This almanac explains all the details of reading sign. Dr. Nordberg was the first to relate track length to the size of deer. Chapter 8, the explanation of the stages of alarm that whitetails go through, was also ground-breaking. These are two of the many advances Dr. Ken Nordberg has made to deer hunting that will never go out of favor. This Almanac is a collector's item.

Dr. Ken Nordberg is also the author of the 1990 and 2001 "do-it-yourself Black Bear Baiting & Hunting" books. Since bear hunting is coming up soon, a lot of people have been contacting me about these books -- trying to find a copy -- unfortunately they are out of print. They have been the best manuals on bear hunting for years. They have been invaluable for all levels of bear hunters -- from beginners to bear hunting guides. If you are interested, a new DVD version of his Bear Hunting School is now available through his website and here on eBay -- just look at my other auctions.
