The funniest part

While the husband struggles to wrestle 200+ lbs of buck in the cornfield, both hands grab on the deer antlers.
Husband: Please get the kids out of the fields!!!
Wife: Why?
:D

Loved, and learned!

I listened while heading to and from a couple of recent hunting trips. I found story tellers details on what they were thinking while in life threatening situations very interesting. And on how quickly things can change.

A few days ago I was hunting alone and decided I would put up a ladder stand which required the trimming of some limbs from a large spruce tree. I had a chain saw and headed in to start trimming. I would need to climb up 10-15 feet to use the saw with one hand while holding myself in position with the other.

Having listened to a few stories from this book that morning I decided I would wait until the next day to use the saw and put up the stand when a couple of friends would be there with me.

Super entertaining and emotional

These stories stir up emotions as it is so easy to put yourself in the place of the individuals who lived to tell the tales. Very well done and enjoyable!

I seen this book thinking it would be a great read to drift off to sleep to at night. I couldn't put it down. It did not put me to sleep at all lol. Instead I devoured it and started searching for more books by this author.

Great listen

Really enjoyed the time performances and stories. I was excited when one of the stories was from the area I live in and the area the hunter was in is an area I hike it. Pretty neat to have rural Alberta Rockies represented
