Need book recommendation for post-season blues

Precision Bowhunting - John Eberhart (GAME CHANGER read for me!). Keeps your mind on deer hunting throughout the entire calendar year

A Traditional Bowhunter's Path: Lessons and Adventures at Full Draw - Ron Rohrbaugh JR (awesome read for those curios in trad. He also donates a portion of each sale to conservation if you buy from his website. Part 1 is all trad plus general deer biology and tactics. Part 2 is neat because he has talks about hunts that he went recaps some cool adventures.

That Wild Country - Mark Kenyon. HAve only read the introduction but super excited about it

Coyote America - Dan Flores. Awesome ecological, Conservation and NAtural History read on the coyote. Thoroughly enjoyed it and just bought another book he wrote. American Serengeti.
 
Only three left. Better order soon!

i think it was already mentioned but - Whitetails - Dr. Bob Sheppard. I've read it a couple of times. Fred G Asbell has some good books as well.
 
Ditto on books from John Eberhart, Barry & Gene Wensel, and Don Higgins mentioned above. I've also got some good info from Jeff Sturgis' books and Bill Winke's 'Hunting Hard for Whitetails'...
 
Any book on whitetail diet and behavior patterns followed by Dr. Shepard’s book. Before you fill your head with all the Disney notions of critters and succumb to the anthropomorphism of deer, get the science in there. Then all these other books will have a better foundation to land on.

I read bobs book before every season to remind me that the whitetail world is governed by rules, and adapting to their rules increases my odds of success more than any specific tactic or methodology.
