Mike,
Thanks for signing and getting #20 to me so quickly.  I haven't had a chance to read much of the book yet, but I really enjoyed the first three chapters,
The broadhead used, regardless of how sharp, is nowhere as important as being able to place it in the correct spot.

Got mine yesterday in the mail!  :scared:    :thumbsup:  Glad to see that others like to hunt and spend time in nature on their own.  :)  

 Thanks again Herdbull for sharing your life passion with us! I plan on buying a few more for friends and our local library/school. Help keep the fire going in the up and coming young hunters.

Just a note for all you readers...

I am typically guilty of this.  Don't just start at Chapter 1.  Read the dedication, foreward, acknowledgements, and introduction.  It will give you some important background!  I've just started reading the finished product today and I'm real proud of the job Mike has done   :thumbsup:  .

Got mine yesterday #93.  Only got to read the dedication,forward,introduction etc, but I'm already plannning on buying addtional copies for some friends and family. I can't wait to get started on Chapter 1 tonight.  I promised my son I'd read to him at bedtime, and couldn't think of a better book to do so.

Thanks Mike.

Got mine, #87! Unfortunately, I come from the same school of larnin' as Biggie and only looked at the pictures. If the book is as good as the pictures, this is gonna be good!

Holy smokes Mike, you are a bull and buck killing machine! Awesome animals!

I received mine today just cracked it open, a personal message from Mike that I will keep forever. I just made a pot of coffee cause I'll have my nose in it for awhile tonight...

Mike, the book is worth your time if you only consider the prayers going up for Paula.  She is in my prayers daily.

I'm ready to begin Chapter 4.  I've been a "lone hunter" for the past 25 years.  I love MY time in the woods.  I have to resist the temptation to read your book in one sitting.  I'm enjoying it thoroughly.  Thanks for a great read!  Book #94.

I just returned from Seattle, to find my copy. I have promised my lil' boy "Tanner" that every night I'll read him 1 chapter before bedtime.

I have only read the first few pages and already I know this will be one of my favorite books!

Mike...Job well done my friend! It is a pleasure to call such an inspiring and remarkable man...my friend!

Love ya brother,

mine was on the table when i got in tonite---i was tired and ready to call it a night until i opened that package---now i'm halfway through it and had to stop long enough to eat supper and rest my eyes.

thanks Mike, this one will go right beside One Man's Whitetail and Come November and your sweetheart will be a part of this sinner's prayers from now on
