Deer and deer hunting magazine is a great mag for info. It's not a book per say but it is full of useful articles. Read all you can on Charles Alsheimer materials... he knows his stuff. His lunar cycles in regards to the rut can be debated.

try to spend as much time in the woods/stand observing the game which you are hunting, and always listen to seasoned outdoorsman and their stories/tips. good luck!

Welcome to the world of hunting, If you take a look at the numerous past post on this site you will find a wealth of information to help you. stay tuned as the season is quickly approaching there will be lots of good stuff discussed/debated. Will you be bowhunting/rifle/shotgun?
