Default How to bag the biggest buck of your life

I have some original copies of Larry Benoits how to bag the biggest buck of your life books for sale or trade. These are the original black books from 1975 not the revised ones that peter miller reintroduced about 6 years ago. I have both hard and soft covers. Only one is signed, not that its a big deal around here. They are pretty easy to get signed at a show. They have dropped in value with the economic times, I saw these books going for 350.00 signed two years ago. Make me an offer either cash or trade.

My parents gave me a signed copy for my 15th.....yup 15th birthday.
Good book. Turned a lot of us on to hunting for big bucks. I think it had a few color pictures?...
These would still make great xmas gifts.
Good Luck

I've got one of the originals from 75, beat to hell but still ok. Who knows, they're askin' probably not gettin' 2700 bucks for a rifle or carbine with their names on it, maybe the market will make a comeback. I'm trying to think of something I've got worth about $350. Any interest in a barely used wife, low mileage, can't cook or clean but great with kids, since she doesn't have any. Doesn't mind being a deer hunting widow at least for the last 25 years. Could maybe throw in a bag of balls or a player to be named later.

Now that's funny, right there... Oh, and never offer to trade your ball bag...

Not much actually, if you can believe all of their newer books and videos.

I think I was in fifth grade when this book came out and was in our school library. (I grew up a couple of towns over from the Benoits) I checked the library card out once and I had signed this book out 14 times from fifth to the eighth grade. I recently bought a re-print version and read through again. It's a great book but I still can't bag a big buck like the Benoits no matter how many times that I've read the book. It doesn't stop me from trying though.

Tactics are still the same, besides if aint broke dont fix it right? I gotta tell you I just watched Hal Blood and between him, the benoits and R.G. Bernier they would be the ones that would worry me if I was a whitetail and they set out to get me, not the other fellas making millions selling doe piss and grunt calls.

The problem with Berniers (or one of the problems) is you feel you are in bible class when you read his books...not that there's anything wrong with religion, I have my beliefs as well, but I don't like people shoving it down my throat either...

DMF, I get the same feeling and I do agree with you. Still cant argue with the results when it comes to hunting. They are all unreal in their craft.

No one wants one of these books as a gift to give to a hunting partner for a x mas present?
