 Old classic, but there are better guides December 30, 2007
I remember my father reading this in the 70s, and it is well known. I am in Maine and I am new to deer hunting as an adult. The advice and information is not as good as Hal Blood's Hunting Big Woods Bucks if you are trying to learn about deer hunting. I would recommend it as an addition to a library or as an entertaing read.
Definitely worth adding to the collection. September 14, 2004

I am glad to see this classic back in print. It has been referred to as a deerhunters bible. I ordered it and it was an easy enjoyable read. However, I agree with a previous reviewer that Hal Bloods book it better. This is not a knock against the Benoit book, Hals is just better. Try them both!
Other books out there for less! May 27, 2004

The printing company is attempting to capitalize on this classic. Without a doubt, this book is a worthy read. However, I feel that Hal Blood's "Hunting Big Woods Bucks" is better and a lot cheaper. If you want to spend the money, this is a good book, but you get more out of Hal Blood's book.

If you want to be the best at something, then follow the best. The Benoits are clearly some of the best at what they do - deer hunting. This book, although written years ago, is a wise purchase for any deer hunter. I have other Benoit deer hunting books and they are all filled with info on how to hunt as well as just being plain fun to read.
Super pricey cult classic back in print! October 19, 2003

I remember reading about the Benoit family and their deer hunting years ago in a sporting magazine. What I remember most is that green plaid wool, Remington pump rifles and big bucks hanging from the meat pole everywhere.
Well in 1975 Larry Benoit published a book compiling those articles and alot more information entitled: How to Bag the Biggest Buck of Your Life. Because of Larry's legendary status as a hunter and his folksy way of telling how he hunts deer it became quite popular with deer hunters. Long out of print, used copies were selling for more than the price of a good used rifle! Now, thankfully it is available again, so I could afford one and read it. I loved it!
Hunters sick of the commercialization in todays hunting press (i.e. you can't possibly kill a buck without my brand of real bush illusion camo, and this hot scent, Lazermonster Super magnum rifle and this kind of scent absorbing underwear. etc, etc.) will appreciate the Benoits simple secret....they are real woodsmen in the tradition of James Fenimore Cooper's Hawkeye of the Leatherstocking Tales. The writing is simple yet elegant and it is fun to follow along with a master woodsman as he tracks the wily whitetails of northern Vermont and Maine. Even though I live and hunt mule deer and elk in the west, I enjoyed reading about such a superb woodsman and found some helpful tips.
