Byron Fergusons "Become the Arrow" is a good one.  You can buy them cheap on Fleabay.

Skill is not born into anyone.  It is earned thru hard work and perseverance.

The Traditional Bowhunter's Handbook by T.J. Conrads. Timeless Bowhunting by Roy Marlow is also good, but more technical.

I'll give another vote to t.J. Conrads' "The Traditional Bowhunter's Handbook.  It covers so much about trad archery and bowhunting that it should be in every archer's bookcase.
Good judgement comes from experience.  Experience comes from bad judgement.

"The next best thing to playing and winning is playing and losing."

"An archer doesn't have to be a bowhunter, but a bowhunter should be an archer."
