Every white-tailed deer hunter looks for deer tracks and other deer sign while hunting and scouting. Few hunters actually can effectively "read" deer sign. This is the most detailed and comprehensive guide to whitetail hoofs, tracks and tracking that has ever been written. Based on original research and documented by more than 60 photographs and illustrations, this guide describes details that will help you distinguish buck tracks from doe tracks, age tracks, estimate the size of a buck by his tracks and much more. This guide describes development of and use of the Trackometer track measuring tool which has scales that estimate a whitetail buck's weight by measuring the maximum width of his tracks. The author explains how this unique tool, along with the fingerprint like characteristics of deer hoofs can make it possible to distinguish individual bucks by their tracks. In addition to the "science" of deer hoofs and tracks, this guide provides a no BS discussion of the "art" of tracking deer in the big woods as well as tips that you will find useful whether you are scouting your back forty or locating a wounded deer. This is a little book that you will want to read more than once.
