Deer Yearbook
Iola, WI
Celebrate the long history of deer hunting in Wisconsin with a new annual book called Deer Yearbook, to be published by JP Media LLC of Iola, Wisconsin, at the end of this hunting season.
The company calls the new 2021-22 edition of the book “the first and only book of its kind” to chronicle the great tradition of deer hunting. This book includes pictures and stories from hunters throughout the state.
This full-color, hardcover book, available at www.deeryearbook.com, chronicles a hunter’s most important deer hunting moments for the generations to come, like first deer and biggest buck. It also creates a permanent record that can be shared with family members and other hunters in the state without having to search previous years of social media.
“I’ve always thought there should be a printed annual book with the state’s important deer hunting memories and photos,” said JP Media LLC Vice President Rocky Landsverk of Waupaca. “For decades, our deer camp printed important pictures and some camps kept a paper record of important moments. With the advent of social media, we stopped doing that. I’m not sure I can find the picture of my son’s first buck, and my first deer and first buck are long lost. Imagine if you had a book like this every year since you started hunting, and it included all your friends and family from throughout the state. It would be on the shelf in our cabin, and it would be off the shelf a lot.”
Hunters can buy either 1/6th of a page to get 1-2 pictures and a story ($54.95 including the book), or an entire page with up to six pictures and a story ($99.95 includes a book). Individual books are available for $44.95 each.
“We currently have interested people collecting photos, especially of parents and grandparents, and if necessary, we’ll help people write the story,” Landsverk said. “Some pages will be used for a great hunting camp year or a compilation of years, while other pages will be blasts from the past with old pictures of years gone by and stories of our mentors.”
The website’s motto is “Spend 5 minutes today to preserve your hunting memories for a lifetime.” Landsverk said the intention is to make submissions for a photo and a story both fast and easy – upload a photo or two, then either write your own caption, or just answer a couple questions and an editor will finish the caption.
