GETTING THE MOST FROM THE 
HUNT RECORDER & NOTES BOOK

THE HUNT RECORDER is designed around the unique needs of big game hunters.  It is highly recommended that you dedicate a HUNT RECORDER for each big game species you pursue. You should also dedicate one for each state or different part of the country you hunt a species. A simple labeling on the cover takes care of differentiating one whitetail HUNT RECORDER from another of a different area. 

Likewise for elk, caribou, moose, bear, muledeer or blacktails. Although each species behave similarly throughout their ranges, ie, rut activity, each area contains a different habitat and a population that exhibit particular habits or different dates of occurrences of those activities. Additionally, this New Revised Edition is more compact and and easy to use in the field. This edition easily stores in backpacks and most fanny packs. The HUNT RECORDER is built tough, ready for use in the field, at home, or on the dash of your pick-up truck.

The New Revised Edition of THE HUNT RECORDER & NOTES BOOK features the magnificent cover art created by John Gilles.

Once you begin to use THE HUNT RECORDER, you'll never want to hunt without one again. After only a few hunts you will formulate new strategies from the knowledge you gain. As the season progresses, you'll be able to follow the ever changing habits of the herd. Your ability to change, that is to RECOGNIZE, ADJUST & EXECUTE new hunting tactics, will become paramount to success. Couple this new found wisdom with the desire to perform at your best, and you'll redefine success as  as having a quality hunt with  meat in the freezer.
 

Look at the possibilities of how you can use THE HUNT RECORDER to your advantage regardless of where, what or how you hunt.

LOCAL DEER HERDS 

  1. Use THE HUNT RECORDER when you hunt a new lease, deer camp, ranch or forest. In doing so you jump start your ability to figure out productive areas.
  2. Use THE HUNT RECORDER every season when hunting your favorite and familiar area to build a library of valuable information. This will enable you to create new strategies and help you out smart that wary old buck. 
SELF GUIDED ADVENTURES INTO NEW TERRITORIES
  1. Use THE HUNT RECORDER during your excursions into new hunting territories. Your recorded experiences and new found knowledge about these exotic areas will come in handy in the future. When you return each season, review prior years experiences to help you construct a successful plan before you arrive by minimizing the guess work and being prepared. Every trip that you use THE HUNT RECORDER will allow you spend more time hunting in game rich areas and less time finding them. LUCK is when PREPARATION and OPPORTUNITY meet.
  2. The "matter of fact" sections of THE HUNT RECORDER such as the Important Telephone Numbers page or the Address Book section will come in handy. Remember the old cuss who owns the gas station at the bottom of the hill who told you about the new burn on the southwest side of Teeters Mountain and that the mule deer were stacked up like cord wood, and he was right? His number and others you meet on these trips are easily recorded and handy for next seasons planning. 
GUIDED TRIPS
  1. You are wise to pack along a 'species dedicated' HUNT RECORDER on each guided trip you take. It makes sense to spend a few dollars to guarantee that you remember your new hunting experiences and everything you learn from your guide about the area and game animal you're hunting.  Mighty cheap memory insurance compared to the cost of the trip.
  2. In addition to your knowledge gained during your hunt, you will appreciate other information  accumulated concerning the "who, what, when, where and how" of the planning and execution of the trip. Special sections in THE HUNT RECORDER allow you to easily record and refer to this information for use on future hunts.

  1. Use your copies of past seasons for instruction to help build a young hunters knowledge base. In reviewing your unique hunting experiences, you'll not only teach this new hunter the basics and more, you'll also get to share some wonderful moments afield from yesteryear.
  2. Give your new hunter his or her own copy of THE HUNT RECORDER each season. This will give him the tools needed to create the successful habits of observation, planning and strategy. These lessons learned early on build confidence and will propel him or her into the exciting world of hunting.
  3. This small investment will  pay huge returns in the future. Do it, you'll be glad you did.
