just gone - this book is an absolute necessity for anyone hunting dangerous game it is put put by safari press for 15 but available from amazon and other for half that and second hand dealers for as little as 4 authored by phil massaro and titled the perfect shot for dinosaurs now before you dismiss this you must realize that it covers hunting them worldwide and contains not only pictures of the perfect shot but chapters on guns and loads noting fine doubles ane bolts actions because of dinos being dangerous game blasers have been omitted as unsuitable as they are for anything else measuring charts for the 2019 edition of roland ward dinos are included because of their size biebs might even be able to hit one

If it doesn’t cover THE PAY LINEthen it bloody useless!

butchloc you have outdone yourself by writing one unpunctuated and quite lengthy run on sentence except for one tiny dash at the beginning which you frankly should have omitted and having no capitalized letters whatsoever even for names and only two typographical errors and I have actually shot a dinosaur all it took was a small bore in 375 h&h magnum thank you

Bought mine a long time ago.

I think I would like Phil Massaro as a person, his writing is pretty good but I don't enjoy it as much as others.

Dinosaurs is the stuff of 5 year old boys. I have 4 daughters, I am not ordering a copy.

Sounds like a fun read. What about zombies

Massaro kind of reminds me of John staffing...always pitting two cartridges against Each other in an effort to have something to write about...

I bought three of them a year or so ago. Gave one to my grandson that loves to shoot and wants to hunt. He was all about it!

Just hit 'em a half inch behind the end of the last curve of that evil smile.

Dead and gone they will be.

Sleeping their last and final, evil inspired, dead mammal dreams.

I got a copy for Christmas. Great little book. My 4 year old likes to look through it and we discuss it while watching Jurassic Park movies. Good times.

Man, That was a waste of band width!

Mike, give him a break. That stuff wasn't covered until 4TH GRADE!

One of the coolest things I have ever seen is the dinosaur tracks in chewore south and very close to it was fresh elephant tracks and dung. One thing seeing such things in a museum and seeing it in the wild. Very cool.

We took the kids to the Dinosaur Valley State Park on the Paluxy River near Glen Rose in central Texas so they could walk in the dinosaur tracks in the riverbed.
There were cougar and coyotes about, but no ele. The park guide was a college girl that told good stories about a cougar coming into her family barn nearby. One cool feature of the camp ground was the life size statues that stood higher than the mesquite trees - especially cool on moon lit nights.

I am concerned a CNS shot will not take effect for too long as they may not understand they are dead, like snakes but worse. For the Rex I think breaking the hip is important as a first shot then immediately follow up with a CNS shot. I know it sounds cruel but it it's me or the Rex...

Same thing as with their little cousins, the crocs!

Exactly. He seems like a nice enough guy, but I’ve read plenty of those articles rarely does he ever pick a winner to my recollection. I still read them at times, but only when it’s an intriguing caliber or one I own or want.

just got one. What a fun book
