Product Description

Imagine holding a guide that not only teaches you about bowhunting, but also connects you to an older way of living, learning, and respecting nature.


In Hunting with Bow and Arrow, Saxton Pope shares his firsthand experiences hunting large game animals using traditional archery methods. He was greatly influenced by Ishi, one of the last members of the Yahi tribe, who taught him methods passed down through generations.

As you read, you will find detailed lessons on selecting wood, making arrows, and crafting reliable bowhunting gear. This classic text, published in 1947, is more than just a hunting guide—it’s a look into the past that helped shape modern bowhunting today.
