Author Biography

Paul C. Carter has been hunting whitetail deer for almost forty years. In addition to his hunting achievements in pursuit of North America's most-hunted animal, he has hunted and taken numerous big game animals from Mexico to Alaska, many with a muzzle- loading rifle. Besides whitetails, his other hunting passion is wild sheep, and the mountains they inhabit. He has two Grand Slams of North American wild sheep to his credit, one of which was accomplished with a muzzleloader sporting open sights--the first and only time this is believed to have been done. Paul is married to Janet, his wife of thirty-two years. They have two grown sons and currently live in Dalton, Massachu- setts, where they enjoy their country home and the wildlife that frequents the property, especially the deer.
