Good foundation in hunting essentials

This is a good book written by a hunting guru. It covers all the essentials of hunting big game, from equipment (caliber selection, rifle selection, slings, scopes, packs, etc), training (zeroing the rifle, firing from field positions) and special situations (firing at running game, firing at steep angles up and down, etc). Beginning hunters should get this book to come up to speed on all aspects of hunting, knowledge that would otherwise take years to acquire by hanging out at the range. Experienced hunters may find some of this book very basic, but can also find holes in their knowledge, things that they never knew. I, for example, found the chapter "Solving Mystery Misses" very helpful - I now have a theory on how I missed an easy shot on a buffalo in North Dakota once!Overall, I think this book is a good way to get grounded in the fundamentals, and makes a good reference manual.
