Ron Rohrbaugh's book about traditional bowhunting combines the best of both worlds for beginners and veteran bowhunters. How-to chapters share hard-earned wisdom to improve shooting and hunting success, while engaging stories describe Ron's hunting experiences in the U.S., Canada, and South Africa. Throughout, Ron seeks to unravel archery’s traditional spirit by exploring the history and craft of bowhunting, along with chronicling the challenges faced by today’s bowhunters in continuing their important role as hunter-conservationists.
Sample Topics:
“Given the number of books on bowhunting in print nowadays, can anyone really find a way to tell the story in a manner that hasn’t been used before? The answer is yes, as Ron Rohrbaugh neatly demonstrates in this volume. Had I read this material fifty years ago, I might well be shooting bows differently today—and shooting them better. Scattered among instructive and entertaining chapters, lie what I consider the lyrical heart of the book: erudite and remarkably successful efforts to explain the spirit--the ever elusive why--that motivates a small minority of hunters to voluntarily limit their means of take to simple stick and string. The book’s final chapter, a summary of the ethical and political challenges today’s bowhunters face in their obligation to continue America’s tradition of the ethical hunter-conservationist, could easily serve as a standalone guide to the subject.”
