2-Elk Hunting The Apache Way

Book two of the Hunting the Apache Way series covers elk hunting techniques developed by Apache hunters. Elk are large, powerful animals that require careful planning and precise execution. This book covers elk behavior and seasonal movements, calling techniques, tracking methods, approach strategies in mountainous terrain, and the proper methods for field dressing and transporting large game. Elk provided Apache communities with enormous amounts of meat, hide, bone, and sinew — a single animal could sustain a family for weeks. Learning to hunt elk is learning to think on the scale of the landscape itself. For hunters ready to pursue one of North America's most challenging and rewarding game animals.
