Benoit Bucks
How do you follow the best selling whitetail hunting book of all time? By writing one that’s even better!
In 1998 Bryce M. Towsley’s book, Big Bucks The Benoit Way brought the Benoit’s style of hunting big whitetail bucks to the mainstream. It went on to become the best selling whitetail hunting book ever published.
Now six years later Benoit Bucks takes the Benoit style of hunting trophy whitetail bucks to a whole new level!
This book about the next generation of Benoit trophy hunters brings you: new information, new tactics, new equipment and a new attitude!
The new ownership at the publishing company is making some changes.
Even though his book was still selling well, it was five years old and they
decided to take it out of print. I bought out all the remaining copies and
the numbers are very limited.
If you have been thinking about buying Benoit Bucks, do it now because when
these few copies are sold the book is gone forever.
If you buy Benoit Bucks and the new Big Bucks the Benoit Way Volume II together,
the shipping is free.

"I thought that BIG BUCKS THE BENOIT WAY was the best deer hunting book ever written, but this one is even better!"

Bucks The Benoit Way Volumn II
Hundreds of new color photos.
Large bonus chapter detailing how the Benoits are shooting the biggest bucks of their life.
New introduction
New forward by the NRA’s John Zent
My first book was Big Bucks The Benoit Way, published in 1998. It went
on to be the best selling whitetail book ever and it remained in print for
more than ten years, which is a long time in the hunting book world.
But when new owners took over the publishing company, they decided it was
too long. The book was still selling very well, better than some of the
new titles they published, but I guess they wanted a fresh look and they
took it out of print.
Almost immediately, one of their acquisition editors, Derrek Sigler, contacted
me about doing a revised edition. It took a while to hammer out the details
and the contract, but in the end we had a plan. I got with the Benoits for
new photos and to gather information for a big bonus chapter. Then I called
my friend John Zent, who is the Publications Director for the National Rifle
Association and asked him to write a new foreword.
The result is Big Bucks The Benoit Way Volume II. This contains all the
original text from Big Bucks The Benoit Way as well as a 7,000 word bonus
chapter. There is a new introduction and the forward by John Zent. Unlike
the first book, which used black and white photos, this edition has all
color photos and most of them are new.
This book brings you up to date on what the Benoits have been doing for
the past decade. The bonus chapter is titled “Hunt Smarter Not Harder”
and it explains how the Benoits are dealing with aging bodies and changing
weather patterns that often leave them hunting on bare ground. It explains
how and why they are shooting the biggest whitetail bucks of their lifetime.
The book is full of photos of huge whitetails and there are some up to date
photos of Larry Benoit. Now well into his eighties, he is still shooting
big whitetail bucks every year.
