Customer Reviews

Excellent!

I gave this book to my dad for no reason and he went and bought 2 more copies to send to his friends. He loved it and said that anyone who hunts relates to this book.

A Christian's prospective of deer hunting AND life.

I had a hard time with this book . . .I COULDN'T PUT IT DOWN! It is an excellent book, and I recommend it to all deerhunters, especially Christian deerhunters! It's an easy, interesting read and I am going to buy copies of this book for my huntin' buddies, which include my teenage sons. Steve Chapman draws the reader into a vivid situation, allowing the reader to feel as if he is in the woods sitting in the tree stand. Also, the author shares his personal views about many areas of life. This book makes you think about many different things! Buy it--you'll like it!

A must read for all deer hunters!

This book is a must read for all deer hunters. It is not only a reflection of times afield but also a reflection of how these times apply to modern life. THIS IS NOT AN EDUCATIONAL BOOK ON DEER HUNTING, AS MUCH AS IT IS A REFLECTION ON WHERE WE HAVE BEEN AND WHERE WE CAN GO IN LIFE. The author shares his experiences in the field with you the reader. Most of them we can relate to. While in Illinois this year I found myself reading this book while on stand passing the dull times. This book captivated my attention with the remarkable similarities between life, hunting, and our every day life. While reading this book I was able to harvest a fine eleven pointer that came in while I was on page 50. After returning home from the hunt I could not wait to resume my reading. This is an enjoyable book for all hunters because we have all been there. In our pursuit of big bucks, we get out of the hunt what we put into the hunt. With this book, you will get out of it what your heart and soul put into it. Read this book and take what you can get.

An outstanding read for the spiritual deer hunter

Steve Chapman's book is a thought provoking look at life as it parallels deer hunting. Any hunter who is looking for that little extra in life will absolutely love this book. How many times as I was reading it did it make me go back to my memories as a deer hunter and then reflect on my views as a father, son, teacher, and Christian. An absolute must read.

A thought-provoking, refreshing look at hunting and life.

Steve Chapman describes, in a humurous but realistic way, the lessons that we can learn while hunting. This book will challenge you to be a better hunter, husband, friend, father, and Christian. Happy hunting and happy reading!
