What are Readers Saying about A Traditional Bowhunter’s Path?

“Just got done reading “A Traditional Bowhunter’s Path” by Ron Rohrbaugh Jr. Best book on traditional archery to date. It covers a lot of material and is well written if you get a chance it is a must-read.”

“I’ve been hunting with trad gear over twenty years and if I could of read only one book over that time this one would have been the most useful. Very entertaining to boot.”

“As a new hunter I have read many bowhunting books recently, and I have to say that “A Traditional Bowhunter’s Path” has been the most helpful. There are chapters on topics that are rarely talked about in hunting books such as how to use field guides to better understand habitat, and hunting from the ground which is often overlooked. There is also a refreshing conservation spirit that prevails throughout the entire book. Don’t think that this book is only for those shooting a traditional bow, personally, I shoot a compound for now.”
