Welcome to the great experience that is "Handgun Hunting". This is the book you want!!! http://www.gundigest.com/handgun-reviews-articles/a-lesson-in-big-bore-revolversIf you search the title you find tons of postitive reviews and it just came out a few days ago! You can even contact the author direct at maxpbooks@gmail.com and get an autographed copy.. I just talked to Max on the phone and he is signing books right now.
Mister, why do you carry a 45? "Because Sam Colt don't make a 46."

I've ordered Whit's book - most recent update shows it here by EOM  Other books to pass the time: John Taffin - Big Bore Handguns Elmer Keith - Sixguns Mark Hampton - Handgun Hunting JD Jones and Larry Kelly - Hunting for Handgunners In addition, James (jamesfromjersey) wrote a great article referencing some of the lesser known works out there for the handgun hunting aficionado.

Don't know if I ever will; though I have been prompted to do just that by several people. You may be thinking of my Handgun Hunting video: http://www.hunterseyevideo.com

what am I going to do with you guys, I've been sidetracked so I've just been breezing through here and am just now reading this. There is no way any handgun book collection is complete without Hamilton Bowens "The Custom Revolver" and don't forget Marks new book on high altitude hunting although my legs are too far gone to ever get where he goes.

I'd suggest Elmer Keiths "Sixguns" to start out with. Read the whole book, not just the hunting chapter. JD Jones & Larry Kelly put out a book a decade or so ago entitled "Hunting for Handgunners". Either book is one you can read over and over, picking up things you missed the first three times.
