The Best of Trail's End by Jim Dougherty BOOK
Format: Softcover
Consummate storyteller and Bowhunting magazine Field Editor Jim Dougherty represents the last of a generation of bowhunting pioneers that popularized hunting with stick and string. A member of the Bowhunting Hall of Fame, Jim rubbed shoulders with such notables as Ben Pearson, Howard Hill, Doug Easton and Fred Bear. From his early lessons in the game-rich California hills to the Rocky Mountains, Canada, Africa and finally settling in Midwestern whitetail country, Jim carved a lifetime of bowhunting memories shared in his unique and wonderful written voice. No campfire, hunting shack, backpack or bedside table should be without Jim's recollection, instruction and opinion on the venerable passion that is hunting with the bow and arrow.
What they say about Jim Dougherty:
Jim Dougherty is one of my heroes. He is a unique combination of philosopher/ statesman/pioneer who is not afraid to speak his mind. His writing is as smooth and as potent as single malt scotch. If you don't mind a lesson in philosophy while reading some greatly entertaining yarns you need to read this book. -- Randy Ulmer
Jim Dougherty writes with the unique perspective of a man steeped in the history of the American archery hunter because Jim himself has lived it. Jim was a part of that early fraternity including Doug Easton, Ben Pearson and countless others, that shaped bowhunting as we know it today. He's the friend and mentor we'd welcome into any hunting camp, a true bow and arrow man who also happens to be an archery icon. -- Jay Strangis, Editor, Petersen's Bowhunting
Jim Dougherty is a great writer, possibly the best bowhunting writer of our time. I rank him right up there with Fred Bear. Like Fred, he has lived a tremendously full life with a bow in his hand - the stuff that fuels his great campfire stories. Jim has a colorful writing style that brings warmth, humor and humanity to every subject he touches. I enjoy everything Jim writes. I am certain you will too. -- Bill Winke
