More Information
Join Joel Spring in his obsession, for he simply can?t get enough of pheasant, geese, duck, squirrel, and white-tailed deer hunting! And yet, after reading a few pages of this book, it will be obvious that hunting means more to him than the actual shooting of an animal. As the author takes the reader through the landscape of the Catskills in upstate New York, a picture emerges of hunting in the finest sense, as it ought to be and as it was when you hunted with your Dad and raced alongside your dogs for downed birds?or as it was when you took your son shooting for the first time. Join Spring and his hunting companions?his wife, Greta, his father, his father-in-law, his friends, his dogs?as they share that special bond while in the woods. The author hunts hard and can be called "obsessed" with hunting, but his pursuit is always ethical and in the true sense of good sportsmanship. As you read this marvelous set of hunting stories, the descriptive scenes will bring alive all the passion and pleasures of hunting, and you will gain a sense of what true fair-chase hunting is all about. A great read.
