Ultimate Deer Food Plot Summary
A lot of valuable information is given to the reader throughout the book Ultimate Deer Food Plots by Ed Spinazzola. Personally, I’ve been able to take everything presented in the text relatively easily with the help of my prior knowledge. All of the advice in this book is relative to my life every year. If I had to choose however, the points that have stuck with me the most are: the importance of correcting soil as well as past vs. present land management layouts. Both of these topics are so important when trying to create great hunting land. Starting with soil correction, I have always known how critical it is to have good soil (based off of my own food plot results). My dad and I’s first food plots didn’t turn out great, as expected.

A Study in Thirteenth Century Crime” narrates the illegal hunting of forests which were supposed to be under the protection of English monarchs from a period of approximately mid thirteenth century to fifteenth century England.

However, Birrell’s seems to believe that Norman…

    When reading the essay "The Deer of Providencia" I found myself wondering who I felt more sympathy for. The deer or the burned victim? The objective and subjective detailed writing used by the author helped me really put myself in that moment. First, with the setting over the river bank near the village watching the deer suffer and struggle to escape from the rope that had captured it. I was able to feel pain as though I was there myself witnessing it. The whole beginning of Annie Dillard's essay had me cringing just picturing the animal suffering. Although, I didn't…

    In Richard Connell’s short story, “The Most Dangerous Game,” Rainsford changes his entire philosophy about hunting. For example, when Whitney disagreed with him about jaguars he said, “You’re a big-game hunter, not a philosopher. Who cares how a jaguar feels?”(Connell). Rainsford believes animals have no understanding of what is happening, therefore, it’s okay to hunt them. He doesn’t care if they feel pain or understand death and shows no remorse. In addition, when General Zaroff set the hounds to get Rainsford, he “knew now how an animal at bay feels” (Connell). Rainsford has to run away, set traps, and continuously risk his life to have a better chance at surviving. He felt the way animals do when they are being hunted and finally understood…

    After reading “The Land Ethic” by Aldo Leopold I found that his research and understanding of land ethics is very thorough and he makes valid points that should be read by everyone in our society. He gives a different outlook on land that makes sense and creates a vivid image of the way that we as human should view land. He describes land as not just soil that lies beneath our feet or below the plants that we walk on, cut, or eat, but as the first layer in a community of which each piece is dependent on one another. If one piece of the community were to fall or not do what it is intended, it would in turn make it difficult for the rest of the community the thrive as it should. When thinking of land it makes it easier if it is thought of as…

    Some friends are closer than others. Friendships change. Keeping someone’s close friendship can in some cases be viewed as a power struggle. At least, this is what happens to Tub in the story Hunters in the Snow. Tub goes hunting with two ‘friends’. One of his so-called friends spends the trip berating him and mocking him for his physical inabilities. This so-called friend is Kenny, someone who joins him and Frank in hunting insults him quite a bit throughout the story. They head out into the snowy wilderness with rifles looking to shoot some deers. Instead, the score of the hunt becomes Kenny, who Tub shoots out of what he perceives to be self defense. He takes Kenny’s friendship with Frank by force and bonds with Frank later on in the story. In truth though, their relationship suggests that Tub didn’t see Kenny as a friend. Tub hated Kenny.…
