The Tibetan Book of the Dead by W Y Evans-Wentz

The Tibetan Book of the Dead by W Y Evans-Wentz

If big-game hunters are to be consistently successful, they must be able to accurately place their bullets when a shot opportunity presents itself. Great Shot is a comprehensive examination of the knowledge needed and skills required to make such shots wherever and however they may be encountered, and it provides practical advice on how to acquire and hone these skills. Among the topics covered are: relevant ballistic information, the implications of shooting along inclines, fundamentals of good shooting form, how to develop steady field-shooting positions, mental preparation, how to practice effectively and how to deal with wind. More specialized subjects, such as range determination, long-range shooting and shooting with iron sights, are addressed in detail.

W.Y.Evans-Wentz was a Theosophist who studied at Stanford University and Oxford's Jesus College. Afterwards, he proceeded to Tibet, where he studied Tibetan religious literature and collaborated with Lama Kazi Dawa-Samdup to transcribe works that became known as The Tibetan Book of the Dead or The After-Death Encounters on the Bardo Plane. He is credited as one of the intellectuals who helped to popularize Tibetan Buddhism in the West.
